<p>I know that my stats especially SAT aren't stellar for Wash U and U Chicago(prbly need to be about 50 pts higher in Math and CR) but I was seriously wondering how big of an impact Boys Nation would have on college admissions. Boys Nations consists of the top 96 boys from the entire country and I have heard rumors that top college recruiters actually attend Boys Nation to find prospects. I am very interested to here what other ppls opinion on this matter is and what kind of impact Boys Nation actually has.</p>

<p>"The top 96 boys from the entire country." Are you for real?</p>

3

<p>I was wondering the same thing for Girls Nation....i am guessing it should be highly valued especially since very few are selected to attend.</p>

4

<p>Yes two delegates from each Boys State(48 states represented) equates to a total of 96 delegates making it quite a noteworthy accomplishment</p>

5

<p>Ah yes, I see, all the smartest kids from each state line up to apply. Get real. It's no hook.</p>

6

<p>Each state has over 1000 delegats so 96 out of 48000+ is pretty good collegekid100 Thats less than 1/4 of a percent. Its hard enough to even get selected Boys State, let alone Boys Nation</p>

7

<p>Not every state has over 1000 delegates. California's a huge state and only has 900 delegates this year.</p>

<p>I'd say it's pretty hook-ish. For those of you who don't know, one must get elected to a high office (Governor, Senator, etc.) in the state to go onto Boys' Nation. I agree it's pretty good just to be a delegate (whole interview process and everything).</p>
