Disagreeing with @ConcernedRabbit. The amount of ‘lift’ your application would get from your claiming NA heritage is never going to be great, and for somebody who has 20% from 23&me it’s going to be nil - if not actually counting against you. Adcomms are used to applicants trying to game the system, and MIT is more likely to slate you than rate you in this instance.
