I did an online business competition, where 140teams compete, from 48states. I just finished second in state, 37th overall in the nation. If I was to write that on my application for college, do I need to back it up somehow? Cause currrently the only way I know I could do it, is by printing out the rankings from their site.
Thanks
<p>You don’t have to back everything up. So many people have so many different awards and stuff that it would cause a lot of clutter if everyone printed out evidence. I would assume your guidance counselor checks your extracurriculars or would note that you placed in a competition or something.Of course, since it is online and not through a school program, I wouldn’t think your Guidance counselor could verify it. Still, I wouldn’t worry about it.</p>
<p>What competition was it by the way?</p>

<p>We do it through FBLA. But I doubt my counselor is aware of it. So what if I show him the site, and a print out of my rank?</p>
<p>That is awesome, because we do the same competition through DECA. I was in the international business plan event in 10th/11th grade. Anyways, yeah, tell your guidance counselor about it. Are any advisors in your school aware of it? Our advisors know about it, so they can help us out with it and stuff. Just make sure that you have people to back you up when you say you were in the virtual management competitions, and since you have evidence of your involvement, I wouldn’t worry about it.</p>
