<p>Hey everyone. </p>

<p>So I've been hearing how URM status is helpful for HYPS and other top schools, but I've heard mixed reviews about the impact of people being biracial. I can see where being Hispanic AND black would be a plus, but what about being white AND Asian? Does this type of biracial ethnicity help, or would it be better to just mark white?</p>

<p>Being two well represented groups won’t be too helpful. At some colleges, even selective LACs, Asians are underrepresented and may get some interest. </p>
