Okay, so today I went into my state science olympiad competition just doing it for fun since my school is not competitive and does not force us to prepare. The night before I looked up a few things online but that was my sole preparation. Well, I came out with a 3rd in Health Science and a 9th in Disease Detectives. I’m incredibly suprised I did so well because last year I came out with no medals and definitely more prep work. So my question is, does this actually look good to colleges or is it more of a “filler” award?
