[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, for example there is joining your schools Model UN club, and then there is winning 6 gavels at national competitions. The first means nothing, the second means something to AOs.[/quote]

True, but the caveat is that if the 6-gavel student did not challenge themselves with coursework in the high school, yet the "basic" Model UN club member who explained how important the club was to them and why, also happened to take all of the hard courses and get As... and has letters indicating they were an engaged student, maybe even an extra letter where the UN teacher noted they were a team player who helped the younger students more than anyone else...the AO will pick the second student every day of the week.

Yes, but it would never be the case that a 6 gavel winner would take easy coursework.  If he's in the range and has slightly less rigor and slightly lower test scores than the basic Model UN member... the 6 gavel student will get in each time. [/quote]
