would this be a hook?

<p>if you were an inventor starting in the 5th grade. US patent. multiple national awards. semifinalist for a TV show. and having a manufacturer interested in your product?</p>

<p>i know it's a nice activity, but is it a hook/good EC? or anything that would at least make me stand out?</p>

<p>Yes. Of course it would. How many other kids do you know that do that?</p>

<p>Yea, it is. And congrats on your accomplishments. Care to tell us what you invented?</p>
