<p>I listed three awards on common app, but I'm not sure which last two to list. I'll put the rest under additional info but I want the best to stand out. The other three I have listed are pretty important to me.</p>
<p>I'm choosing between the following right now:</p>
<p>National Merit Semifinalist
National AP Scholar
Coca-Cola Scholars Semifinalist
Superior at State/Local Spanish Speaking Competitions (goes with my "passion" that I want to stand out on my application - would group under one award slot)
Bausch and Lomb Honorary Science Award (also goes with my focuses since I do a lot of science things)
Yale Book Award
Science Olympiad State Medals (right now vaguely listed in activities and further described in additional info...)</p>
<p>I got deferred from my top choice ivy, so I'm trying to make some revisions :P</p>

<p>Well, the section is for academic awards/honors, so include only the ones that fit that category.
I would include as many as you can (you lowered my self-esteem). If you run out of slots, I would include the ones with the highest level of recognition (international, then national, then state, etc).</p>
<p>thanks for your opinion! but on the common app i’ve already taken up 3 spaces with stuff that i’ve actually put a lot of time into (science fair-esque things) and have two more spaces. do science fairs not count as academic awards? idk D:
anyway my question is which of the above two are most prestigious. i’m leaning towards coca-cola scholars and national merit right now, but i know that they get like 2804832984 nmsf’s so idk if it would be the best decision to put that.
oh and don’t feel bad because obviously these things don’t matter much since i got deferred.</p>
