Should I list the same extracurricular twice on CollegeVine?
Answered

If I were both president of my school’s Academic Decathlon club and I won an individual award at the national level, would I list that as 2 separate extracurriculars on CollegeVine? Since one is a significantly greater achievement than the other, but both are notable and better than many of my other extracurriculars, I’m not sure what to do.

Yes, you should. They are the same extracurricular but they are two different achievements. Both would be good to add.

Hope this helps!!
