I know that we aren't supposed to include awards from high school but AP awards are awarded in the fall after completing high school (but obviously for work done while in high school). Do you think these should be added or left off?
 
I think they should be left off. APs will show up on your record if they were transferrable to your university. Adding stuff from HS will seem like you didn't do much in college. Also if you're nearing graduation from college, anything from HS should not be included.

I was a National AP scholar with distinction and left it off my application.
 
I would leave it off

You can include it provided you also list the 5 gold stars you got while in pre K.
 
Yeah same here, but the actual award doesn't show up. I have enough awards anyway 🙂
 
Wow, why didn't I think of that before? They are so similar! I just got my five stars in the mail today for my pre-k finger painting. I'll add that too. Thanks.
Actually, the only reason I asked is because AADSAS has you list your AP coursework when you enter your courses. Last I checked it didn't ask me to enter anything else. Its not like I asked if I should enter an award I actually received before college. Some people are just so unnecessarily rude. You should stay off these forums if you consider sarcasm as the best way to help people.

Doc's sarcasm has actually helped many people 😀
