My DS did not have the opportunity to participate in any Academic Decathalons or Knowledge Bowls at the high school level because his tiny school did not offer this. They do, however, participate in Math Competitions and he has done so and placed every year. Is there a place to document Mathletes on Form 147 that we might be missing? Thanks!!
 
Unless something has changed, Form 147 has an area for you to list additional activities not listed in the bubbles on the form. (Almost all of my activities are going to be going under that column:)
 
@UnitedStatesAircraft5 is right, it is there on the form - "List other activities.... that are otherwise noteworthy", however there is a numeric value where this candidate will really stand out - in the field for standardized math test scores, mathletes tend to max this category out and FLEX on their peers.

In BCT, the athletes will shine and wonder why the mathlete was allowed in, pointing out how they simply do not belong and are not pulling their weight for the team... and then.... school starts and OH HOW FEELINGS CHANGE as the mathletes become peer tutors and really start to pull their weight to help the TEAM move forward. "Cooperate to Graduate!" We take all kinds.
