advice about a possible discrepancy in my app

Post by sw1066 » Thu Oct 22, 2015 12:27 pm

When I created my profile on LSAC I ticked the box that said that I am South American while also saying that I am white (European). However, I looked back over my LSAT answer sheet and it looks like I only bubbled in that I was white (I might have missed the part that said "ethnicity" and assumed just race or I might have missed the smaller print that said that we could bubble in multiple choices). I'm worried that this discrepancy will look weird. Do the law schools see the actual answer sheet, or just the score report with a breakdown of correct answers by section? I know that South Americans might not count as URM, I just don't want to be inconsistent. A number of schools ask demographic information again in their applications.

Would a discrepancy like that count against me if the law schools do see it?
