im almost certain that you are not URM, but just check on aamc webpage to double check.

You guys dont get lumped into "White" ?

I'm thinking not URM.

Here's the webpage on AMCAS.

Nope, at least not in California or Glendale 🙂. My mom's uncle is Armenian by choice BTW.

I would assume they are lumped into white; considering they are caucasians.

South Asian Indians are also caucasian, but they're not lumped into white. (instead, hah, many times lumped into Asian)

I'm Armenian and no we are not URMs. Where I am from we are pretty highly represented in medicine

You're about as URM as a Lithuanian.

 

[Misfit!]

Anyone Armenian/Tajik/Azeri/Turkish/any type of middle eastern (or cross between middle eastern and eastern european) is considered "white" by AMCAS standards. If you are not some variation of Hispanic, Black, or Native American, then you are not a URM.

not too many armenians here huh? Well add one to the list 🙂

And no, we're not urm. We were lumped into the caucasian category pretty darn early in the 20th century.

Are you applying this cycle nareg?
