I wish we could list more than 5. oh well.
National Merit Semifinalist (i figured i should include this)
National AP Scholar with Distinction (i’ve also got the highest at my school. should i include that?)
Mu Alpha Theta
National Honor Society
National English Honor Society
2 science fair papers i’ve done have also won a lot of awards. one abstract was published in the national academy of sciences newsletter. both won many state awards.
Participated in the Duke TiP program, before 9th and 10th grade
Participated in UAB Cord Summer Science Institute Advanced Principles of Biology and Neurobiology

I’ve got all this on my resume- and I know this is stupid, but I can’t find the additional information section. Also, if I’ve got this stuff on the common app, but since I can’t go into a lot of detail, should I still include it on my resume where I go into more detail?

Applying for college is sort of difficult.
