<p>hi.
So..I got rejected from the summer programs I'd applied to. I know some high school
students do get internships by asking professors by email. I am thinking of doing that, but I'm not sure where to start. Do people reply back? Anyone who did get internships this way, do they welcome you in the lab?? Also, who do I ask?
I've looked for people doing bio/chem-related researches at local universities, but I'm not confident that I would be useful in thier labs at all...
Help! I really want to spend this summer productively.</p>
<p>hah, I tried asking, but none of them replied… I wasn’t really expecting them either. BTW, I got rejected from all the summer programs I applied to as well :(</p>
<p>^omg same boat! however, im considering beginning my own dance class so idk, somewhat useful use of my time i guess</p>
<p>How exactly would you ask them?</p>
