Should I even try out for the Model United Nations(MUN) at AU if I have no prior experience?

I have never done MUN before; however, I have always been interested in it. I am not a great public speaker because I get very nervous when speaking to a large group. I know that it is something I could improve. But I heard that MUN at AU is pretty selective and I don’t know if I even have the chance against these delegates who had prior experience in high school. But I do know that I really want this, and I know it’s something that I could be good at with practice, hard work and dedication.

Do it. I tried out for my first mun conference with no prior experience and got in. They want to see more people in the future not just those who are currently performing well

Thanks! I bet you were good at public speaking.
