<p>hey here's an atypical asian who's more into history and writing (english) than math/science</p>
<p>are there any programs or awards i can compete in?</p>
<p>Try for TASP. I guess it's the humanities equivalent of RSI. Maybe do NHD or Debate.</p>
<p>im sorry i've never head of TASP or NHD..
what do these acronyms stand for?</p>
<p>Uh, Telluride Assosication Summer Program. Go to the High School Life thread or look it up on the Internet. Basically a very prestigious humanities summer program that is completely free and also very selective. NHD is National History Day where you can write a paper/make a documentary/etc. on a historical event that applies to that year's theme, i.e. Rights and Responsibilities.</p>
<p>i see. thanks!</p>
<p>National History Day competition for papers and such.</p>
<p>are you a sophomore? if you'll be a junior next year you can do the ncte awards in writing. but you need to get nominated from your school.</p>
<p>yeah i'm a soph. i'll look into that as well. thanks for all the good suggestions</p>
