What's considered a major award? A minor award?

<p>What about being a State Finalist in Forensics (Speech Team) or DECA (business)?
What about National AP Scholar?</p>

<p>It depends on the school. I can’t speak for the first one but for top colleges (top 20 or so), National AP Scholar doesn’t really mean anything because most applicants have earned that honor and they can already see that you did well from your AP scores.</p>
