Science Research only helps if it’s REAL!!! Most paid programs that advertise science research will pair you up with a graduate student to do a thing called a literature review or a metanalysis which is really just a summary of other research papers – not an original question. When you frame it like that, what you realize is that you don’t need to pay those programs to do that kind of work in the first place, you can get better summaries with ChatGPT 😂 But Ivy League colleges do value real science research, which is with a PhD mentor, a real scientist, in a lab, working on an original question with the goal of getting published in a real journal. That mentor can write you a letter of recommendation describing your original contributions to the work, and that is the thing that actually makes a difference in Ivy League admissions. so yes, science research can help you get into an Ivy League school but only if you do it the right way. Don’t get fooled by programs just trying to make a buck. #ivyleague #college #admissions #scienceresearch

HOW TO GET SCIENCE RESEARCH IN HIGH SCHOOL!!! Ivy League colleges love it when students apply who have done real science research, but the biggest thing holding students back from getting science research positions over the summer is that they don’t have useful skills to contribute to a lab. You can fix this by taking a free course in python on X and then use that certification when cold emailing professors to show them that you would actually be able to help them. That’s how you’ll get science research for the summer and improve your odds of admission to an Ivy League college. #ivyroadmap #college #admissions #ivyleague #science #research #summer

SCIENCE RESEARCH IS AN IVY ADMISSIONS HACK!!! Ivy League colleges love it when aspiring stem students do science research because it is one of the few ways you can show true excellence in the field that you hope to join. Follow my advice step-by-step so that you can do science research while you’re in high school and have the best odds of being accepted into an Ivy League college. #scienceresearch #research #ivyleague #admissions

YOUR GPA IS USELESS!!! Obviously, you need good grades to get into an elite college but when everybody has good grades, it’s not a meaningful factor that distinguishes you in college admissions. #ivyleague #admissions #college #gpa #usc When you see that 44% of the people accepted to USC had a 4.0 GPA or higher, that shouldn’t tell you that GPA was the big factor. It should tell you that a high GPA is a given. You need way more than that to stand out. So what do you do? Focus on achievements much rarer than a 4.0 GPA. Get a high score on the SAT, win competitions outside of school, get letters of recommendation from influential people that show that you did real work. Hard stuff, rare stuff, that’s what helps. You actually stand out in elite college admissions.

Replying to @Green🐲 Send your Science Research to Ivies in a supplement! This works especially well, if your paper was published in the journal before you apply, or is in the process of being published. Don’t try this with random papers you wrote entirely on your own, without a Scientist mentor. But if you wrote a really legit science research paper, he can make it much easier to get into an Ivy League school. #ivyleague #ivyroadmap #harvard #admission #college
