The OP is a unicorn/rare jewel. The GPA and test scores are good on their own but add in the SES factor. And she didn’t find out about her URM status until recently and isn’t necessarily depending on that to get into school.

If I were an AO, her application is on the top of my list. Any school would be proud to admit such a student. And given the recent news with families trying to buy admission, I am glad to hear some good news about somebody who worked hard to achieve so much success.
