Curious, did you rank these yourself or find this somewhere?
This is a ranking of "appeal to admissions " rather than “general prestige”, is that right?

Where would one put

Inter/national Brain Bee or Spelling Bee?

Congressional award for youth (medal)?

Commercial acting/music/art success (professional actor, dancer, singer, instrumentalist etc)

…and I guess a list like this can’t take a holistic picture, like of a kid who spends summers pursuing one subject or interest at higher and higher levels…summer pre-college, more structured study-program, independent research, etc?
