Secretary-General of a MUN
Answered

Hello!

I'm in the secretariat of a MUN. We have several committees, more than 200 people participate as delegates (people from all over my country), and around 50 people participate as Chair.

I'm also gonna be the next edition's secretary-general, which means I will be having the highest leadership position.

I have also attended several MUNs as delegate and I'm beginning to attend MUNs as Chair as well.

How can I put this on my chancing profile? In the EC section there's just one item where it says "had a leadership position in a Model United Nations". However, I'm not sure if this item really reflects my scenario, because it says "had a leadership position in a MUN and grew it to 15+ members". The event I host is significantly bigger.

I wanted some advice on how to display my experience with MUNs in my chancing profile, because I don't know where I should inform my leadership position and where I should inform my intense activity in MUNs in general.

To which tier belongs this EC? To which area (politics, student government)?

Thank you!

Hi there! Congrats on this big accomplishment. I'd say it's around a Tier D or C under "interest clubs":

Tier D: I was the president and/or founder of school level interest club OR I organized a city or regional event or conference for this interest

Tier C: I organized a statewide event or conference for this interest OR I was the head of statewide interest group e.g. New York Super Smash Brothers Club

I know you said this was country-wide, but I think Tier B would be too high based on the number of attendees (our chancing engine probably equates a national event to thousands and thousands of attendees).

Let me know if you have any questions!
