I imagine Not “Putting Asian race if name isn’t Asian” is probably common. A casual walk around Harvard College would give one the impression that a third of the students there may be Asian. Given Harvard’s official stats of 20% Asian I think there is under-reporting of Asian in Common App. The opposite is true for AA where the official figure is 15% and half of them are multi-racial. Until schools get rid off racial buckets in their admission I guess such gaming in box checking would be inevitable.
