<p>My son got the phone call and the letter in the mail, but he did not win any of those awards you listed. He however has shown great passion for science and i am sure must have reflected somewhere in his application. By the end of his junior year, he had taken 9 AP subjects, 8 of which are 5s. He has 800 in SAT II in Chemistry, Math II, World History, and 790 in Physics
I am telling you this just to show that you can get in without the national awards, it is the totality of your application that matters.</p>
<p>God luck to you</p>
