Step by step guide to starting research in high school. This process has helped me win awards at ISEF, NJSHS, and several other top science fairs. Let me know in the comments if you want an additional video on science fairs or publishing research papers.

Damn… ur awesome bro, if I had u earlier it would have helped me especially with this research stuff. All I thought before is just grinding academics, but obviously now I’m a senior and cannot do much about extracurriculars. At least I can help my younger brother using ur channel. Thanks man

Nah tbh I also did the same but now luckily I competed in so much that i thought i was doing for fun and now looking back I’ve got like a national silver medal in swimming and have competed in a sh*t ton of science related competitions (qualified for semi finals for ARSSDC) and also have made my own community service organization, I did all of this in senior year (11th Grade) of my high school, don’t let yourself down, you still have time, even if its less, try to do something that will make you stand out

I've been waiting for this one, appreciate it a lot. I asked this question on one of your recent KZfaq shorts and its related to independent research, so I would really appreciate any insight from your end. I'm currently an astrophysics-focused student doing guided research, and I have recently began diving into independent research. I am currently pursing an engineering research project related to fluid dynamics. Although, if everything goes as planned, I should be able to fabricate a physical product, I am currently just working with self-programmed simulations and machine learning algorithms. I know you're more focused on medicine, but at ISEF, to what extent do you see more purely computational model research? With one of the research internships that I am doing, I am currently creating an ML model, and you mentioned taking contributions you have under a professor and taking that to ISEF, so, as a backup, will that be viable in and of itself or should I create an accomplishing measurement device to siphon the data for such model? I've seen some projects with purely computation, but it doesn't seem that many get far, so I was wondering what it is like at the highest position.

Hey Pratik, I stumbled across your channel a couple days ago while searching what I should be doing freshman year to lay the groundwork for getting into t20s. I watched your video on the blueprint for all 4 years and took away the best extracurriculars like Job Shadowing, Interviews, Clubs, and Volunteering; I just wanted to ask what you did freshman year and if you have any other advice? (BTW I already figured out what my SPIKE is and what career I want to get into, CS.)

I love your channel! I’ve personally been following the process you listed out in the vid for awhile now and hav narrowed down on a topic of interest and am delving into it. It’s a coding science fair project idea but I was wonder if you could give me advice on how to email professors if they’re interested in mentoring me. Should I list out achievements or focus on idea and passion? And what would I do in a situation where more than one person replied saying they’re willing to work with me?

Like I'm taking a class where the upper classman teach us how to find a topic, find research facilities, professors ect. and I'm wondering if that fact that I'm taking such a class would make it seem likes less work than if I had done it all with my own research. IDK what's your opinion?

Would you say that debate is time-worthy in high school for a pre-med student? Especially since joining debate would mean less time for independent research or preparing for science competitions. I've heard that debate and model un carry a similar prestige, and I watched the ranking extracurriculars video - so would you agree that debate is very pointless? Also, what’s your opinion on the ap capstone diploma program? If there’s ap classes (ap music theory and ap psychology) I want to take instead, are those better options?

Hi, thank you for making such inspiring KZfaq videos. For an 8th grader who wants to learn coding for doing science fair projects, what is the best way to do so? Any website or online courses you would recommend? Many thanks in advance. It seems like coding related science fair project is the most assessable for this age group. Again, very grateful for any advice you may have.

Since I will start my research this fall, what platforms could I use to help myself learn to code? I've never done coding and don't take any coding classes, do you have any suggestions for websites or platforms that could help me learn how to code? Is Khan Academy a good option to learn to code?
