In the Waterloo AIF it includes a section for contests. I am wondering if it would be smart to include DWITE/ECOO/Brock Computing Competition (our local boardwide contest) In the list of competitions I have participated in. Would it help my application at all?

CCC and Euclid are the main ones and carry the most weight. Considering that they are in February and April of next year, I believe they are just looking for "will participate" checkmark (you really should). Mention previous year's CCC, if applicable.

ECOO might also be beneficial.

I haven't actually heard of DWITE being recognized enough to help (one of our primary goals is to prepare you to do well on CCC), but I can't see it hurting your application either.

Ok, I am planning on writing both of those and have my results from last year for CCC and the Grade 11 Waterloo math contests so those were checked off.

Hoping to see if I can make round 2 for CCC this year and I think I have a legitimate chance after the last DWITE considering it was the second time (including the first dwite) that I have coded anything since school started and I almost hit top 10 going solo.

An idea on where you can find scores from last year ECOO? I know we were 17th or 18th at York but I don't know what our score was there or at either of the first 2 levels. I had to just put that I participated at the provincial one
