<p>What in the world is the National Society of High School Scholars??? I got the invitation thingy, but i don't know if its just some stupid thing with a fancy title, or what. Anyone ever heard of it?? And who nominates?
Thanks!</p>
<p>somebody i know got a nomination. i don't know what that is. went to the website. sounds like something important, but if it is, why nobody has heard of it?</p>
<p>Well we got 7-10 days to see what they want to scam us with right?</p>
<p>i got that too!</p>
<p>i got today too, went on the website and its supposedly open to nominess with a 3.5+ GPA. They say u only have to pay $45 one time and theyll neva charge u again 4 anythin..........idk thou, ive neva heard of it either</p>

<p>I got a nomination too, but I haven't checked it out because it looked like a scam. A 3.5 plus GPA isn't very competitive, but then again, I could be wrong. Anyone know anything about this?</p>
<p>Oh, and I got a nomination for National Young Leaders Conference too. Is this a good program, or is it not very prestigious?</p>
<p>It's a total scam (NSHSS)- don't do it.</p>
<p>anyone know anything about the National Young Leaders Conference?</p>
<p>Anita - search for it, there are a lot of posts on it.</p>
<p>NSHSS, sounds like Who's Who... They're just out to get the money.</p>
<p>I received a postcard too, what's that society about?</p>
<p>SCAM. Although, I recieved one too, but I'm pretty sure it's a scam.</p>
<p>In general, stuff where you have to pay for an honor is a scam - (somebody said this on a previous thread and it's a good way to think about it)</p>
<p>For example National Merit, Presidential Scholar (I think), AP Scholar etc are free, Who's Who, National Honor Roll etc. are not</p>
<p>I got a letter too. It is sponsored by the Nobel family though...
anyhow, NYLC is totally worth it , especially if you are in politics and gov. and what not.</p>
<p>I got the postcard from this too?</p>
<p>Does anybody know anything about it?</p>
<p>are we sure that it is a scam? have any actual members posted yet?</p>
<p>Somehow, I highly doubt it is a scam. Harvard's dean of admissions was the keynote speaker at one of their events this year. If he truly was, then it's got to be legit at the very least. If he wasn't, then Harvard would have sued the hell out of them already.</p>
<p>Although I do admit it's suspicious nobody here knows about them yet.</p>
<p>This</a> page appears moderately useful, but it doesn't help all that much.</p>
<p>I got a nomination as well...</p>
<p>So far it doesn't look like those $45 is worth it, but who knows.</p>
<p>Why has no one heard of this?</p>
<p>yeah i got one too</p>
