<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I worked in a lab at a university, and my research was used by my mentor in his paper that he has submitted to a journal. He told me that the paper would be published soon and that I would be receiving author credit (not sure whether 2nd author or 3rd, 4th, etc). How much of an impact would this have on college apps?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
