Which of these awards should I list?

Paying for College

<p>heey...i'm applying for an scholarship that has a section for "awards, honors, and scholarships" but only has 6 blanks. i'm not sure which of mine are most prestigious...any advice on which to list? the only info i can include on it is the name, the source, and the date...so although i'll explain what each is here, it's not something the scholarship will see...</p>

<p>High Honor Roll every marking period, 2003-present (not really an award, though)
National Honor Roll, recognized 2006
American Mathematics Contest Level I Winner, advanced to Invitational level (AIME), 2006 (didn't do really well on AIME, though)
Varsity Scholar Athlete</p>

2

<p>ugh! it cut me off...ummm...there are a bunch more:</p>

<p>Penfield Patriot Pride Award, Fall 2006, for Varsity Tennis
Monroe County Youth Bureau </p>

<p>okay, i give up. ignore me. CC hates me all of a sudden.</p>

<p>National Honor Roll pretty much doesn't mean anything. I wouldn't put high honor roll on there either because lots of other students are going to have it too. If your grades are that good, they should be self-evident from the transcript.</p>

5

<p>okay, i'm trying one last time:
Varsity Scholar Athlete</p>

6

<p>i have a list of 15 or so, and can't put them on here...is there a limit on posts per day, or on pasting text in?</p>

<p>I'm not sure why you can't copy + paste or why your posts are being cut off. Sorry. =/ (And no, I don't think there's a limit on posts per day.)</p>

<p>It sounds like you're both a good student and a good athlete. Since the good grades are demonstrated by your transcript (and maybe by your teacher recs), I would play up the athletic part of your application.</p>

<p>Of course, you should try to put your more prestigious awards on there. Since I'm not familiar with most of your awards (they sound like local ones), I can't really help you with that.</p>
