Hello fellow forumers. Just recently I attended a program hosted by the American Legion called Boy’s State. It is a weeklong simulation of the politics involved in running a state on the city, county, and state level. Throughout the program, I was told by counselors to include this event on my resume because colleges look upon it favorably.
My question is how much value would Boy’s State have as an extracurricular compared to other prestigious awards?
