<p>are ones chances higher being a black Hispanic rather than just being Hispanic?</p>

2

<p>Yeah, probably.</p>

<p>correction: not African American. what I mean is a 100% Hispanic that marks down black as race.</p>

<p>It is generally believed that the degree of hook for URM applicants is: NA > AA > Hispanic. However, within any of these groups there are other factors that affect how you are considered by adcoms, please see the threads I link to in post #2 of this thread for some discussion:</p>

<p>@entomom:
what my question is that now that I have indicated black as my race (not because I am AA, but because of my skin color) are my chances higher now?</p>

<p>I do not do Chances of any kind. </p>

<p>You should be constructing a realistic list of admissions and financial safety, match and reach schools.</p>
