in the part of the app where you indicate your race, is it better to put Asian, asian american, or nothing at all?

I came here from china when I was 7, but for all intents and purposes i'm asian american in culture

on the other hand I got 780 verbal and 800 writing (both psat and satII) so do you think it would be to my advantage if I put asian?

it makes no difference. I'm in the exact same situation as you, I'm putting down "asian"

and trust me, neither asian american nor asian status will help you, at all.
