<p>as in English is your second language
does this help or hurt you?</p>
<p>uh…my experiences with talking to my now college friends seems that, if you are lets say…Asian–> you will have a slightly lower chance of getting in to your preferred choice than lets say…a Hispanic American would…</p>
<p>based on your situation it seems like its a 50/50 chance of you receiving admission compared to another student of the same caliber yet a different ethnicity..</p>
<p>dont know if that made sense..but good luck!</p>
