<p>I'll probably start working with my brother at his chemistry lab (I'm going into Chem. E). Some friends have told me that it might look "strange" to colleges to work at a family member's business. As in, the validity or honesty of my work there might be questioned.</p>
<p>Anyways, I'll probably be going anyways since I love the atmosphere of the place and the science is cool. If it's not the type of work experience colleges are looking for, then I'll probably get a summer internship somewhere else but come back to his lab after the break.</p>
<p>TL;DR: does it look bad or less impressive on an application to have an internship/work with a family member?</p>
<p>( This might be in the wrong section, sorry D: )</p>
