Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone knows if NOT reporting your race is looked down upon? This recent article stirred up some thoughts I've always had about this issue. I don't want to be stereotyped as socially-inept or be expected to have a 4.0 GPA (if i'm competing for a spot within the Asian quota). If it works against me in ANY way, I will gladly just not report my race. I'm not ashamed of my ethnicity, I just want to play the game intelligently, by leveling the playing field any way I can. Thanks for your feedback.
