<p>Question: I'm a mix of the two worst ethnic minorities to be if you want to get into college. Half half. Oh yeah, I'm also semi Indonesian. A parent was born there.
Does the fact that I'm a MIX do anything to nullify the effects, or does it make it twice as worse?</p>

<p><em>wants ethnicity surgery</em></p>
<p>Well, it can't hurt. We all know URMs have a leg up on everyone else... so use what you have!</p>
<p>some asians are URM, it's only the CHinese, Koreans and Japanese ** that aren't **:D</p>
<p>edit in bold</p>
<p>Aye, what about Indians?</p>
<p>they go under "Others" ;)</p>
<p>J/K :D</p>
<p>i believe Pakistani-Americans aren't considered URMs at Pton either</p>
<p>and I would be more than happy to be wrong :)</p>
<p>I think that URM is hispanics, african americans, and native americans.
Asians for some reason aren't seen as underpriveleged, who knows.</p>
<p>Is Filipino-Spanish considered URM?</p>
<p>I am half indonesian and was born in Indonesia... we definitely are an URM</p>
<p>What's URM?</p>
<p>ultra-roasted mad-cow</p>
<p>alwaysfaithful... gasp! :P</p>
<p>URM = Under-Represented Minority</p>
<p><em>fries and sizzles</em></p>
<p>yo, why can't they roast the pigs from time to time?</p>
