LBNL Summer Program - BLIPS

<p>Hey everyone,</p>

<p>I've been around CC for a while and I decided to make this thread. I'm currently a high school junior and I got a call from Lawrence Berkeley National Labs informing me I was accepted into their summer program known as BLIPS (it used to be known as HSSRPP, BLIPS</a> Home )</p>

<p>Does anyone know if it'll help in Cal admissions? I love doing research and I really do have a passion for it, but it would be a great plus if the LBNL program helped out come time for admissions. Also, has anyone here done this program before? If so, please give me your opinion.</p>

<p>Thank you so much!</p>

<p>i did it last year, and it was generally a good expierence, except for the many hours of safety classes you take during first few days.</p>

<p>generally, if you get a good mentor you’ll have a good time, if you’re mentor doesn’t like you, yuou’ll be bored to death.</p>

<p>I am thinking of applying this year. Dow you know how many people generally do this program? And how was your experience?</p>
