I have a paper that was published in High School through a research internship where I am the 5th author. How does the "avoid things from high school" rule in the work/activities section apply here? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

There is no rule you can't include HS activities if you feel they will add to your candidacy. You'll get more traction from including it if you continued to engage in research during the college years, though.
