<p>Or is it only published material?
I did some serious research in an unexplored area of physics(can't divulge details to avoid personal identification) using the limited equipment I had in my poor school. Does it count? If yes, should I send it as a supplement or talk about it as an EC?
Thanks.</p>
<p>As long as it wasnt a project that everyone in the class had to do for a certain course, you can mention it.</p>
<p>Everyone did other, simpler stuff. Basically stuff off the internet.
So where do I mention it?</p>
<p>you mention it in your essays and CV</p>
<p>Many colleges have space for a research project on the application - make sure you dont mention it twice in those applications!
Also, if youre getting a recommendation from the physics teacher, you could perhaps hint at her to write something about it? (but that’s up to you)
Otherwise, just mention it in your essays/ link it to the college-specific essay questions if you can.
Good luck!</p>
<p>Don.t think there are many other ways to show researching ability and talent. so it shud be fine</p>
<p>Dont send in your research unless it is worth sending. Many colleges look down on school projects which are submitted - the have thousands of apps to go through and they do not want to see a frivolous research project.</p>
<p>Having said that, if it has been published/has won an award etc, got for it</p>
