<p>I'm an international student from Asia. I won some awards in my country, but I'm not sure which awards universities prefer. Could you compere the following achievements?</p>

<ul>
<li>National essay contest merit award (top 15 out of 5000)</li>
<li>National mathematics licence of first rate(5% of the examinees, which is less than 400 people in the nation, pass this exam yearly. 30000 people take the licencing exam of eighth~first rate yearly. Most of the examinees are math teachers, college students, or adults. There were only 5 high school students, including me, who passed this exam in the last year.)<br></li>
<li>individual round award in a national math competition(this competition is like HMMT. It's not widely known but quite competitive.)</li>
</ul>
