<p>guys i need some help. </p>
<p>I have to list my Honors, and i am confused if clearing RMO and Physics Olympiad at the Regional Level is of any worth??</p>
<p>I have a NASA Scholarship.
I hav bagged award for excellence in computer science for 3 years in a row at school.</p>
<p>I was 107 at NSO. </p>
<p>how do i frame all of these to the best?</p>
<p>^these are all useless awards. Don’t mention them at all. Adcoms won’t care.(lol) </p>
<p>:D</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>lol 
They will care. This is great.</p>
<p>Hahahaa useless indeed! =P</p>
<p>Yes Yes … absolutely worthless …</p>
<p>After all… who doesn’t get a NASA scholarship… Who doesn’t clear RMO and Phy olympiad…</p>
<p>This website is very intimidating …</p>
<p>BTW fray, ur SAT scores??</p>
<p>Exactly my point, compscifan!</p>
<p>I’m wondering if “thefray” started this thread just to have a little fun. </p>
<p>@the fray - Out of curiosity, does your username refer to the band?</p>
<p>Except probably the NSO, all of the other achievements are worth mentioning.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I a-g-r-e-e.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Forgive my ignorance, but what is NSO?</p>
<p>Guys guys guys! Easy. I am struck with some pathetic net connection issues so i am late in replying. </p>
<p>Ah come on, just tell me!! Is it worth mentioning? You guys are confusing me!
At nationals i got a 97 AIR in maths (the topper was also from my school, argh :P)
and 55 in Phy, both last year.</p>
<p>About the name : well, yes and no both. Cool a name, isn’t it ? ;)</p>
<p>@ivycollege : my subject scores. Maths 2- 780; Chem - 740. Phy- 700. (they ask for just 2 of them right? please say yes 
!! )
SAT Reasoning - 2140</p>
<p>I came second TCS IT WIZ at kolkata this year, so i put it as ‘academic’ in EC section?</p>
<p>Nso- national science olympiad</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You’ve cleared RMO and the Physics Olympiad at the regional level and got 780 and 700 in your Subject Tests? </p>
<p>This seems like a ■■■■■ thread.</p>
<p>There is no <em>official</em> physics olympiad at the regional level. The first level is NSEP.</p>
<p>^Out of curiosity, are you an Olympiad medalist, debarghya9?</p>
<p>Nah, not yet. I have worked considerably hard for NSEP/A and RMO though.</p>
<p>Best of luck then! </p>
<p>But why have you worked so much for them (if I may ask)?</p>
<p>^Because I love Math/Physics :). There is no other way to let people know that I’m good at it. As I self-study everything, it becomes a little overwhelming sometimes.</p>
<p>Thank you Saxena!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Self-studying Olympiads? You wouldn’t happen to have a couple of Nobel prizes in your house now, would you?</p>
<p>Anyway, am I right in assuming that your Olympiad results will not help you in the college application process? I mean, they won’t come out in time, will they? </p>
<p>(I do not know anything about Olympiads, except that they’re way over my head).</p>
