<p>I just got this letter that states that I have been accepted to National Youth Leadership Forum what is it?And is it worth attending?
Is it anything interesting? Have any of you guys done it.</p>
<p>I got a letter for that my junior year based on recommendations. I don't want to be cynical but I really think its not worth the money - sort of a scam. I mean I guess you get an insight into the medical field by job shadowing doctors and going to hospitals but you can do that on your own too without spending that much money. I declined it but I know someone that went and they enjoyed it so I guess its up to you - just know there's other things you can do instead like volunteering for your local hospital, clinic, or family practice.</p>
<p>"based on recommendations"- from what or who</p>
<p>From one of my health teachers...I'm in a health academy at my high school. The only people at my school who got an invitational letter were those whose teachers signed them up or recommended them somehow. It might be different at your school</p>
<p>thank alot... I thought it might be through collegeboard</p>
