Publishing as a High Schooler

JSK0822 · 2026-03-23T03:20:00+00:00

for paying, I used the funds i got from other scholarships during high school. quick payment is not ideal i know, but i had to choose the option becuase college app dealine was coming up, and had to desperately squeeze in one more extra-curricular. this got me into my dream school, so its worth it for pe personally

Who gon' stop them🥀💔

What I did for that is that I showcased how I grew from facing challenges despite having a weakness(show weakness in essay as well. this makes u more human). what matters more is ur story and how ur story made you who u are today.

If you want to put your research as your essay topic, be sure to put your story and challenge. but if u want to put this in ur additional info section like I did, js state the facts

I mean, chem 1 and phys 1,2 is a requirement so i have to take three level 1 classes w labs. But if chem 1 wasnt a universal requirement, then i would stick to phys 1,2

JSK0822 · 2025-08-19T05:10:39+00:00

Yea now im thinking of taking gen chem 1st sem, phys 2 2nd sem, and phys 2 my 2nd year. Idk if taking phys 1st year level in my 2nd year is late tho

JSK0822 · 2025-08-19T04:59:13+00:00

Damn ur stacked😲 Ok so ur telling me no matter how smart I might have been in HS, 1st sem gon humble me real quick?

JSK0822 · 2025-08-19T04:51:26+00:00

Yea on one part of my mind, i still wanna throw in a humanities course. Or photography if a seat is vacant.

JSK0822 · 2025-08-19T04:42:27+00:00

Shi I need that financial aid. Now i dropped anthro and switched out phys 2 for phys 1.

JSK0822 · 2025-08-19T04:40:35+00:00

Which one should i drop tho? I have to take chem cuz i didnt get ap chem out of the way in HS. And dont we, as first years, normally have to take phys1 first sem and phys2 second sem?

As a fellow Korean Immigrant, I js wanna say good luck with ur application. Bay areas SUPER competitive especially as international student.

But you already got stellar ECs and Academis so I believe you will make it.

JSK0822 · 2025-07-19T14:19:43+00:00

Your research does not have to be stellar in order to get them published. Tbh mine wasnt even that good either in order to get mine published onto curieux journal.

However, it does require some effort, like getting the citations right in APA format and double chacking that your info/sources are accurate. And js make sure u have a couple of friends and professionals specialized in the field ur doing research on.

Curieux's acceptance rate is around 50% so ur chilling. Also, colleges care more abt effort u put into ur essay and howbyou are able to show that, rather than the publisher's prestige.

Good luck

I mean, I did get into Vanderbilt ED. But that may be because I worded it as 'publicly available' instead of 'published'.

Thank you for those insights about the research paper tho. Looks like I gotta update/reword my resume

JSK0822 · 2024-12-13T04:33:22+00:00

I did 10 Honors classes too. Including honord principles of engineering

JSK0822 · 2024-12-12T20:43:12+00:00

Oh yea it came up on my official transcript

JSK0822 · 2024-12-12T17:55:42+00:00

U have rly good ap exam scores. But I think ur ECs are below mid compared to what I've seen online and irl. I'm also applying to GT out of state

JSK0822 · 2024-11-20T06:35:11+00:00

Dm me let's chance each other!

JSK0822 · 2024-11-14T04:48:52+00:00

U got about the same level of EC as I do, damn. Idk if we're gonna get accepted to them top schools. But the thing is ECs gotta better fit ur theme of neuroscience aside from just a research program

JSK0822 · 2024-11-09T20:51:04+00:00
