<p>Hey,</p>
<p>I am going to apply to universities this year. One of them is Caltech. Now, I have to submit a research paper. I was wondering what should be my topic.</p>
<p>Go to the Caltech forum and see what others did. It seems that you’re expected to submit something already done, right?</p>

<p>You are not required to submit a research paper. They just want to give applicants a chance to show them their research experiences. When they say research paper, they mean ISEF, Intel STS, Siemens type projects.</p>
