Academic Honors

Applying to College

<p>Can you guys give me some examples of academic honors? Does it have to be something that you got in school or can it be anything that is related to academics. Like would a 1st place in a math competition be an academic honor. I am asking this particularly for the common app where they ask for your academic honors. all I could come up was National Honors society and all the laudes, and national merit. ANy help is greatly appreciated.</p>
