this is a spinoff of the AA thread. Are there really urms getting into the T3 with 3.0 gpas? I've heard various accounts of shit like this but I assumed those were exaggerated

I can see that. I just have a hard time picturing a 3.0 college student at HLS, YLS, or SLS.

pretty unlikely.

how much of an issue is it if i'm urm (1/4) and identify but don't look it?

do you have a bunch of race based stuff on your resume (black panther party, us-ninja assn, lettuce pickers local 212), or can you be identified as a urm based on your name? which urm?

african black. not AA.

i don't have too many ECs other than participation on a basketball team. i'm also poor and first gen college grad.

can't identify based on name. name's originally arabic. think barack obama but more common.

not an issue for admissions, but people will not respect you if they know what you did.

it would be best to NOT check the box that allows student groups to talk contact you (i.e. the black group), and keep your faux blackness a secret

i don't care what people think. i guess i'm just imagining walking into my c&f interview with the interviewer giving me a quizzical stare until finally broaching the subject and/or disqualifying me from the get-go

I guess I ought to apply to law school then (I'm a URM with honors in both my undergraduate and MS degrees). Oh wait, I don't want to be a lawyer.
