<p>What do you guys think of putting down one of those "most likely to..." awards on an application? I know some people list "most likely to succeed" or
"best musician," ect. I mean does it help or hurt? On one hand it's a popularity contest. On the other hand it could indicate how your peers regard and respect you too, right?</p>
<p>good question, ill just upp to get an answer,</p>
<p>Superlatives... I really don't think those have any significance whatsoever in college admissions. They're just things the school votes on for fun basically and don't mean anything.</p>
<p>Seriously, they're worthless. And we don't even hear about it in my school until yearbooks are out. I think we vote in the winter.</p>
<p>yes.. these stuff as all adcoms know have greator insignificance than significance ...also what do they reflect.. Only ur popularity in school or something. Solid stuff counts which has proper substance</p>
<p>what! definitely include it... especially if you go to a large school. i'd say avoid "best looking" or "biggest flirt" obviously, but "most likely to suceed" or "funniest" seem fine to me... colleges want to know that you are well-regarded socially, how could that hurt?</p>
<p>dude we got the voting sheets today. ugh. can't hurt, as long as you don't list that as your #1 or only accomplishment/award.</p>
<p>I guess it cant HURT...but i highly doub it would help</p>
<p>when we did our this year a lot of the winners were joke ones</p>
<p>I honestly think adcoms would laugh if they saw these on an application... I think it would hurt in making you look somewhat stupid for thinking they'd mean anything on a college app, unless it's some huge unbelievably big honor at your school to receive a certain 'title'...</p>
<p>But never having been an admissions officer myself, I'll let someone more familiar answer.</p>
