<p>How do you earn these? I want these to be on my transcript because colleges love leadership.</p>
<p>Be a leader lol! Do you know if your school even has them? Anyway, the only way to get them is to be a leader, in the classroom, in your ECs, etc. You can prove your leader by being officers in clubs also. But honestly, getting a "leadership award" wont make much of a difference. If you want to impress colleges, get BIG awards (as in not within your own school).</p>
<p>That's what I mean Big Leadership awards.</p>
<p>Can you give examples of out-of-school activities where you can attain these leadership positions/awards?</p>
<p>I think i've heard of a big leadership award...something about like you get a scholarship and you go to Isreal. Bronthman or something it is called.</p>
<p>I've never heard of that. I'm going to try to get national awards but it'll be "Hard" for me.</p>
<p>Community service for one, Righteous, is an area you can attain leadership recognition. If you do a hundred hours of community service a year, you can win the Presidential Community award. It's not that prestigious, but as long as you do a hundred hours you get it and the award is something, official and everything. </p>
<p>Leadership isn't a long list of extracurriculars. It isn't joining clubs that have no relevance to you as an individual. Leadership is devotion. It is doing something that you love and taking it as far as you can. It's being an innovator, a good communicator, and a respected mediator in your community. As long as you have those attributes, whether for one area or a bunch of areas, you are a leader. As long as you convey those attributes to others and admission committees, you will recieve recognition as a leader.</p>
<p>That was very meaningful. I plan on doing Community service for an elongated time.</p>
<p>Thanks, Private_Joker. So, interning for attorneys shows leadership? That's what I'm doing now.</p>
<p>That doesn't necessarily mean you are to be recognized. You need to do it continuously and it would have to benefit a group of people as a leader. It doesn't mean only taking the initiative.</p>
<p>Vigilante, dont worry what Masterus says. I mean he doesnt have an internship at a lawyer's office..you do. He hasn't started high school...you have. He's not valedictorian yet....you are. I think you're the one who should be giving the advice not receiving it, Righteous.</p>
<p>Taking the iniative for something doesn't mean you'll be recognized. It's the way of life and logic. Lets say you took the initiative to start working out at the gym. Will you be recognized for leadership. Most likely no but there are possibilities.</p>
<p>You seem to go out of your way to tell people they suck lol</p>
<p>No, I don't. I'm saying they have a chance not to get recognized. It's really actually chance. I'm not degrading anyone here.</p>
<p>There's always chance of something. Can you analyze it with precision to hundredth of percent?</p>
<p>Why would you need to analyze it with a perfect percentile? Life is life and life is unknown You can't explain or analyze the Unknown.</p>
