<p>How many of you applied and got in. I didn't.</p>
<p>I got kicked out a month after I got accepted. It's a useless group. I know I'm "Honorable" and I don't need to paint easter eggs or any other trivial bullcrap like that to prove it.</p>
<p>I didn't get in either. They only accept you if you have a 3.5 UNWEIGHTED GPA, and that's why I didn't get in lol. My UW GPA is 3.475, weighted it's 4.21.</p>
<p>bump..........</p>
<p>I got kicked out right before graduation. I agree with Visirale - it's a stupid club.</p>
<p>It is stupid. All our officers belong to the same clique, wear Polo Ralph Lauren, cheat in their classes (I've seen them on several occasions and reported), and party...</p>
<p>I ask myself, why am I in this?</p>
<p>yah im in it...its so boring..i forgot to go gto the last meeting s o i mught get kicked out...they are stupid about stuff like that..</p>
<p>Hahah at my school it's hyperselective--14 juniors out of a class of 525 get in. I'm not going to go into it, but I assure you that I'm totally qualified, along with a ton of my friends who were rejected last year. I don't really care, though, and declined to apply this year, because I think I'll still get into college without it haha.</p>
<p>Basically, 2.7% of the people in my class are deemed honorable enough for the elusive Golden Tassel at graduation--a lower acceptance rate than Harvard, MIT, Stanford, etc.
..I'm actually writing an editorial for my school paper about the ridiculousness that is NHS at our school..</p>
<p>lol NHS is somewhat ridiculous...I am in it though ^.^;;</p>
<p>In my school you can only be in it if you have a certain amount of comm hours and if you have a 3.8+ GPA (or was it 3.5+?). Yea so I just joined just because it was there and for when i do apps. Kinda stupid though, last week I had to pay a $20 due for the club. xP</p>
<p>I got rejected. =D</p>
<p>I know at least 5 people in it that lied about a bunch of stuff on the application, because they were practically bragging about it. </p>
<p>I don't care though because if I get rejected from a college I applied to, I highly doubt they would have accepted me if I was in it. :P</p>
<p>i am president of mine and mine is not bad at all. we have over 100 members and the whole point of the society is essentially community service. every nine weeks you have to have 4 hours. i think its worthwhile, and since our officers were committee selected we have a wide variety.</p>
<p>I'm part of NHS at my school. I really enjoy it and I'm running for VP this year. I don't even know my GPA unweighted, but I know it must be above 3.5 lol. (I do admit I like Ralph Lauren...lol). We have 5,000 kids at our school and about 30 members.</p>
<p>I have applied for it. Is it the same as Key Club but with a more important sounding name? I was a part of National Junior Honor Society in middle school so will it help?</p>
<p>Nobody at our school gets rejected. All you need is 3.5 gpa. The club royally sucks.</p>
<p>There's no application at my school... you get invited to join. I happen to really enjoy NHS and the community service work (tutoring, volunteering in the forestlands) I do through it. </p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Our NHS does diddly-squat. Heck, our Four-Wheel Drive Club (don't ask me why it exists) does more than our NHS. Thus, I decided against even applying; goes against my principles, and I've got better things to do.</p>
<p>I love how people falsify and fabricate just to get into one of these things.</p>
<p>Haha, I haven't been to an NHS meeting since I got in, it's always conflicted with other more important stuff, like hanging out with my friends during lunch.</p>
<p>At our school you need a certain GPA, then they send you a form where you list your ECs, and after that pretty much everyone gets in.</p>
<p>I got accepted to NHS this past week. Our chapter sponsors the Special Olympics competitions in our region. Maybe 30% of the people who applied got in.</p>
<p>NHS is a hoax at my school. They claim to look at academic ability and volunteerism in your application, but I didn't get in. I am in the top 5 and I have the highest SAT I, and II scores, and I have around 400 hours of volunteering at a homeless center and reading to kids/ helping them with hw at the library. I guess its cause i dun wear abercrombie and fitch like the rest of the NHS kids.</p>
<p>I'm glad to see there are other people out there who aren't fans of NHS. In my school, you have to qualify by getting a certain GPA and then you have to do ten community service hours in a month as well as fill out an application and get a bunch of people to sign it. If you do that, you pretty much automatically get in, but it's a pain in the butt. Plus the month where we had to do the hours was preceding the PSAT - and I was already studying for that in my free time. Anyway, I volunteer on my own time; I don't need NHS to do community service, and it's all that they do.</p>
