Answer:
Yes and no. The Jewish identity is two-fold and applies to both ethnicity and religion. For example, there are some people who consider themselves Jewish based on blood, family history and cultural practices, even if they don't observe the religion. There are also people who are ethnically and religiously Jewish.
A person can convert to Judaism and become a member of the Jewish community, but they cannot change their ethnicity, in the same way that an Italian person cannot decide to become German.
Answer:
The above answer is not correct. After conversion, a person is generally considered a descendant of Abraham, and this belief is reflected in the Hebrew name of the converted person (The surname "ben Avraham avinu" is attached to their Hebrew first name, meaning son of Abraham our father).
Converts are considered full Jews in all aspects of the word.
