<p>I have a friend who is looking into boarding school next year, and she has a question about race. She is mixed race--two minorities, Asian and Middle Eastern--but you probably wouldn't be able to tell if you didn't know. From my understanding, both races, especially Asian, are overrepresented. How will that affect her?</p>
<p>It won’t. People worry too much about race in admissions. What will impact her most is how well her applications fits the school’s needs. A lot of Asians are turned down, but then again, a lot are admitted.</p>
<p>She should focus on being herself.</p>
