<p>Okay if I’m technically half Black (mom’s Jamaican), half subcontinental-Indian (dad) is that still URM? aka chances similar? I’ve always identified with African American/Black but realized the common app has spaces for parents country of birth so I should really check off Asian as well.</p>
<p>Just say you are black.</p>
<p>That’s what I was going to do, but won’t it be suspicious when my dad’s country of birth is India? Or is that ok…</p>
<p>No, it’s alright to just put black.</p>
<p>I agree that you have a good chance at mostly anywhere. I wouldn’t say you’ll be accepted eveywhere, but I’d be seriously surprised if you got rejected from more than half your schools.</p>
<p>A little update to my stats:
Junior Year: 3 APs
AP Chemisty: 5
AP US History: 5
AP English Lang: 5</p>
<p>AP lang was a huge surprise :)</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone who has replied!</p>
