<p>Well, other than taking the UK Intermediate Maths Challenge and receiving a Gold (about 6% get this so it's not a huge deal), I've only really achieved school awards, and I was curious to know how much top universities value these awards.</p>
<p>As an international school, our school hasn't heard of, nor does it have access to all of the competitions and awards I've seen listed on CC. As a result, the only awards I, and anyone else in my school, has been able to get are internal school awards.</p>
<p>I've received the outstanding academic achievement awards in my freshman and sophomore years (didn't get it Junior, but oh well), and have received subject awards for about 6 different subjects - english, french, biology, PE (lol), IT and economics. The thing is that I want to major in engineering and none of those subjects are of the engineering variety (math, physics, chemistry etc...).</p>
<p>Will these awards make any difference whatsoever. Might the fact that the awards I've received are in a variety of subjects help at all? I feel rather inferior because I see people on CC with all these massive national and state awards whilst I've just got my little school stuff haha.</p>
<p>Thanks and sorry if the post is super long!</p>
