    Default Students at the University of Puerto Rico - San Juan Campus

    Most Puerto Rican adults have a university degree and the university is (mainly) free, so I think its actually fairly representative.

    This video is from the campus in Rio Piedras, San Juan. What do you think of the phenotypes in the video? Where else can they pass?

    I think that, as a whole, the group passes easily in Venezuela, Brazil and Cuba (and maybe Colombia).

    In ever other country in LatAm, I think the group as a whole would be atypical.

    As a group they could easily pass in some of the private schools of Santo Domingo. If I recall well one university came out only 20% African (North African included) and the remaining 7% taíno, 62% caucasoid with the rest unassigned (most likely MENA). I've also seeing videos and some seem to be along these lines. They would actually fit better there than in the regular class of Colombia or Venezuela IMO.

    Santiago and central Cibao have some high caucasoid parts in the regular class but on average I don't think most will look pred. caucasoid. Probably like a third or so depending on the area. Half of these people look pred. caucasoid to me.

    I assume theyre mainly working and middle class. Very poor people dont tend to go to university and upper-middle class and above almost always go to mainland universities.

    You know, I can't really agree with you about "good" teachers. First of all, if the teachers are good, then you won't have to improve your grades. And I do not mean just "please give me a bad rating." Good, professional teachers always tell everything in a very clear and accessible way, and therefore many do not have any misunderstanding about the subject. Purely my opinion.
