I know there have been lots of these types of threads, but none of them answered my questions.
I am thinking about attempting a Jr. L1 Cert next year in high school, and the two things I need to know are: does it look good on a college application? I would like to go to a good engineering school, and if it looks good on a college application, that is pretty much an instant "yes" (and financial support ) from my parents.
And: how much does an L1 certification sized rocket cost to build and launch once? I don't plan on becoming a regular HPR flier because of the cost.
I am not sure if I would do a scratch build or a kit. Is either one significantly cheaper than the other?
Thanks.
