<p>i would not suggest putting the Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine unless you actually went there. I have been nominated to go three times during high school, but I never went. Sure being nominated for something like that is great, but colleges don't want to see what you are nominated for, but what you did and how you applied youself.</p>

<p>also, putting something like that up on college "achievement" lists makes you look like just another overachiever. (trust me, colleges want more than just standard overachievers)</p>

<p>In at almost all except maybe Brown and Wesleyan but you have a decent shot... and dont list the nysl forum thingy i think 96% of cc has been nominated for one of those</p>

<p>I don't think Brown and Wes are going to happen, Tufts, Wellesley and Hav you have a shot at, Oberlin turned down many with much higher stats in the last few years (read posts about andi's son). I would add some schools like Trinity, Conn College, Skidmore where you have a more clear shot unless you'd be happy at your state U.</p>
