How big of a boost do you get from winning a national competition?

<p>Say like a national engineering/buisness competition</p>

<p>Depends if it’s actually prestigious or not. Either way it definitely doesn’t hurt. </p>

<p>Could be very big. Dunno the purpose of the question, though. Would the answer have an effect on what you do?</p>

<p>Well I’m a junior and I have already won it. It’s certainly prestigious, as in thousands of schools participate in it but certainly not to the level of intel sts. A teammate of mine got into m&t with it and he said it was probably the biggest factor</p>
