<p>Ok Im a Junior in High School, and I feel as if Im low on EC's. Im going to be applying to ivy league colleges. </p>
<p>So far my EC's are</p>
<p>Math Club
Newspaper Club
Debate Team
NHS </p>
<p>I am not the president or vice president or any of that in any of these clubs. For leadership I dont really have much. I want to add some sort of research activity to this list so I was wondering if anyone knows how I go about researching. </p>
<p>I live in MA and I dont know how i find researching opportunities. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. </p>
<p>So basically Im asking all of you people who did research, how you got the opportunity to do so, and How i should embark on it.</p>
<p>Some recommendations for places to research: Galegroup, LexisNexis, Pubmed. All are GREAT resources if you want to do some research. There is also a lot of research to be done at the library. Just make sure to cite your sources. Or you can use Wikipedia, though I think most institutions frown upon it.</p>
<p>I hope this 1 paragraph guide has helped you get started on your research! Best of luck! :)</p>
<p>What kind of research do students do to get into top colleges? Like usually its related to science correct? They perform experiments and stuff like that right? </p>
<p>If someone who has actually done research like that plz tell me how i go about doing it, i would greatly appreciate it</p>
