In 2022, HOSA *** launched three major challenge categories: ATC Science Foundation Challenge, BCE Public Impact Challenge and CCE Professional Academic Challenge. Students can choose 1-3 challenge, and each student can only participate in one project. HOSA can choose a variety of ways to participate in the competition: knowledge evaluation, speech, video, research and so on. In addition to competitions, HOSA has also set up associations and presidium all over the country to provide more and wider opportunities for students to participate.
Many people classify HOSA as a biological competition. After reading the above introduction, you should find that it is very different from popular biological competitions such as USABO and BBO. I think HOSA pays more attention to life and health than biology, so students in Deto, on the contrary, students majoring in chemistry will participate in HOSA, and students majoring in biology will not participate in HOSA. As far as I know from people who have experienced it, there are many HOSA awards and the winning rate is very high. Usually we think that the gold content is inversely proportional to the winning rate, but I always think that the most important criterion for choosing a competition is to see the matching degree between the competition and the student activity plan. For example, if you are already a club with related topics at school, then participating in HOSA can be the continuation of the club and the expansion of its influence; For another example, if you are an applicant majoring in media, you can take part in the video competition of HOSA, which will give the video a deeper idea. In a word, there are many ways of competition in HOSA, which can meet the needs of few student activities/competitions. The key is to choose the right project. If you want to show your knowledge of biology/chemistry through HOSA, I don't think this is the best choice.
