Chemistry Olympiad

How will colleges view advancing past the local exam on the Chemistry Olympiad/is it prestigious? Thanks.

It won’t hurt. About 1,000 kids advance to the national test. Honors/high honors (top 150/50) would obviously be better. And making top 20 and attending the study camp (or making top 4 and making national team) would be a huge plus. Are you looking to go into anything chemistry related?

a great help
