are light-skinned (and they don't look too smart)
do you think they wouldn't pick me because i'm dark-skinned because i feel really nervous about this.
a study said ppl are would pick an underqualified light-skinned black over a dark-skinned black who is qualified
should i even waste my time on this scholarship?
i went to the scholarship website and there were no dark-skinned ppl on it. ??? what would you do
also i'm really smart (salutatorian of my class)
i think i deserve the scholarship because i've had a rough life and achieved a lot
i will be mad as hell if they don't pick me based on my skin tone
(yeah they ask for a picture, but don't worry i'm cute)

I think you should go ahead and apply the worst that can happen is they will say no. Good luck.

Well you shouldn't be so judgemental based on their web site. Go ahead and apply-you definitely won't get it if you don't apply at all!! Your saying the people they pick "don't look too smart"? Again, a little judemental aren't you??

I don't think you should let this stop you from trying. At least you'll know you tried. Just go ahead and apply and see what comes out of it. You might be pleasantly surprised. Good luck! :)

If you weren't picked because of your skin tone (and you can prove it), would you REALLY want to go to that school anyway? Think about it...

Don't let the color of your skin hold you back. If they don't pick you because of your skin tone then they are ignorant and racist.

You're not being a "victim" are you?
