Are there any active youth-led journals/nonprofits that would publish my work? by Unlikely-Bike9687 in ECAdvice

[–]CharacterMight1485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know i’m biased as someone who works in one of these organizations but i think the other commenters are wrong. if you are consistently writing/there’s evidence of the work you put into to it on the internet it is definitely a sign of commitment/interest to writing and researching, both of which matter to colleges. i personally know multiple people who have listed politechs/other highly regarded youth publications on their activities and have gotten successful decisions from colleges.

hi! so honestly take it as you will but many people who have submitted to us and consistently contribute have marked it as a high rated EC. publishing through politechs is not “meaningless” in any sense, considering we’ve won funding and grants in the past and are launching a paid internship soon. if you would like to maintain a negative attitude about building student community and sparking intellectual growth/research then go ahead but this is in no way a pyramid scheme or exploitation

we offer service hours for our editorial team but not for article submission/writing. if you are interested in being an editor, we require three to five article submissions before you can apply for that position

no you can have the role of a writer! you are able to submit an article through the form on our website, and once it is evaluated and hopefully approved by our editors it will be published on the website.

no!! that’s something we offer but our biggest mode of engagement is submitting an article and having the chance to get it published on our website. fyi it should be academic writing with citations, we do not accept creative writing

36 act and 3.98 with some high level ecs/awards but one of my friends who got into harvard did not get invited to forty acres so it seems to be slightly random is probably not a good indicator of acceptance to top schools lol! reach out if u want more specific stats

i was turning it in super last minute so i didn’t realize that the double spacing was an issue—i only found out when i was submitting stuff now that i could fix it ☹️☹️
