<p>how many and what awards did you win during high school? u know states and national ones.</p>
<p>Ummmmm.....4, I think so far.
Honorable Mention Nat'l Spanish Exam
2X gold medal Nat'l Latin Exam
State Latin Sight Translation Contest 3rd Place</p>
<p>I think that's it, most of it relating to Latin. Too bad I'm not taking Latin next year.
Most of it's BS, I think. (e.g. Honorable Mention....yeah....I know I'm good. :))</p>
<p>i dont even know where to sign up for these state "insert language" exams. I've noticed a lot of people are gold metalists or top placers or whaever for them though.</p>
<p>My school gives them. You could probably google it for whatever exam you take and get a language teacher to back you for it (b/c you have to have your language teacher's name to put down). For Spanish, it's online and I guess you need a teacher's name to make sure you didn't cheat and so if you win they send the award to him/her. I'm not explaining it right but it's not that complicated though. :)</p>
<p>none FTW!!</p>
<p>Ummm...what does ftw stand for?</p>
<p>for the win, fair though wet, furry turtle welts, facetious tapeworm, etc..</p>
<p>i got none also.. i should have gotten the community service award.. i mean i am building a school for girls in india, i went above and beyond on my project and didnt do a stupid little class like others did.. and i didnt get the award. I didnt do it for the award, but she told me i should have gotten it.. and um i dont see my certificate.. so yeah its mesed up. I had to fight for approval of my project cuz my teacher said that its too large scale, and she didnt want me doing it.. i did it just to prove her stupid ass wrong and to help my village girls in india.. stupid school.. grr

<p>i won best bootay (tevan)... and then i also won best mustache (jsherms), hairiest arms (feder woah) and the study skills award with ms curis</p>
<p>State/National awards aren't given so much at my school (that might be because it's a lesser-known private one), but here's the list, just for kicks.</p>
