I have a good gpa, good ecs, semi low mcat. I am applying as native american/white on my application to both md and do schools. Do you think I will receive more preference due to this? I am not sure how this works as I just learned about urm.

I dont think it is legal for them to ask you to prove it is it? They cant ask for my family tree. Im just trying to understand the whole thing if there is any difference I know what I am lol.

Lol im not putting native american to claim i am under privileged i am putting it because it is part of my race. I dont do anything to indicate im passionate about being white either nor can I prove im white. Plus it is an optional section that i am simply marking truthfully as I was told by my parents that on my dads side I am native american.
Oh, sorry about that. My husband is a self proclaimed 'cracker'. Didn't think of it as derogatoryMafunk, I found your response informative. However, I think it would have been just as effective without the derogatory term.
That's probably a telltale sign that you'll have your work cut out for you proving it.
