I have just been offered a spot at a Research Internship for Physics in Boston.
My question is this:
Would it be more beneficial to pursue that
OR
play Super Y League Soccer with no intention of being recruited?
more beneficial to the college admissions process, of course.
I guess money could factor in: the internship is about $3500 while Super Y is around $1000
<p>The first of course. Assuming that you plan to pursue Physics in college.</p>
<p>What if I want to pursue engineering?</p>
<p>Pretty much the same curriculum as Physics for your first year. If you want to persue engineering, the physics internship would look GREAT... one question - is it an internship or some type of camp or something that you have to pay for?</p>
<p>Are you saying that you will pay for the internship?</p>
<p>It is a camp, but I will be doing research. Maybe it's not the same? <a href="http://www.bu.edu/summer/highschool/honors/high_school_honors_tracks.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.bu.edu/summer/highschool/honors/high_school_honors_tracks.html</a></p>
<p>And yes, I will be paying for it.</p>
<p>You learn something new everyday. Sounds like a good experience, but I really don't know how they can refer to this is an "internship." It smacks of scam.</p>
<p>hmm, im still torn between what i should do</p>
<p>I guess this is what was appealing: Over the last two years, nineinterns were regional semifinalists in the Siemens Westinghouse Science and Technology Competition, two of whom became regional finalists.</p>
<p>Does anyone else have any suggestions? I am low on time :(</p>
<p>Do what would be most fun. You really shoudn't live your life according to what looks good on a college application.</p>
