<p>Are the law schools in the business of policing ethnicities?
I am 1/4 Hispanic and that is what I put on my college apps and my law school apps. I also got the National Hispanic Recognition Award in high school. To receive that aware, you have to have a certain PSAT score and be at least 1/4 Hispanic. I am also white and checked “white” and “other hispanic” on the law school apps.
One grandparent was from Uruguay, making me 1/4 Hispanic. However,this grandparent (my grandmother) had grandparents who originally came from Europe (not Spain). These are my great-great-grandparents. So, my great grandparents and one grandmother were from Uruguay. How far back do they go?</p>
