Should I submit this for supplemental materials?

<p>Okay..</p>

<p>In my AP biology class we are currently involved in a research project in which we went to a reservoir which consisted of 25 ponds (2 were connected to a lake)</p>

<p>Well my group (2 other students) were assigned the task of measuring the various levels of dissolved oxygen within each pond and then recording the phosphate, nitrate levels... we set up a control for each pond and now we are back in the lab doing extensive research on 4 ideal ponds.</p>

<p>We are testing the various factors of dissolved oxygen such as Phosphates, Nitrates, Tempature (higher temp, lower temp), and Salinty to observe the changes in Dissolved oxygen over a one week waiting period (to allow photosynthesis to take place)</p>

<p>Last, we will write a 10-12 page paper discussing the relevenace of dissolved oxygen and also the importance of each factor we tested. We will go in depth in the chemistry of the phosphates and nitrates and discuss the ideal temperature for photosynthesis to occur.</p>

<p>My question is, should I send this research paper in to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Dartmouth, Cornell?</p>

<p>Thanks guys.</p>

<p>anyone....?</p>

<p>No, probably not... it seems like a really basic,cookbook activity... A pool guy probably does more extensive testing</p>

<p>If this was some project you prepared for your city, or some groundbreaking work that got published, I might send it. But this? This seems like a normal assignment...</p>

<p>from my understanding, the data we collect as a class will be published in the Houston Chronicle...</p>

<p>So should I still not send it?</p>

<p>Send them the article from the Houston Chronicle.</p>

<p>I'll try, but like I said we are still doing the research.. and the project is due this friday.. I highly doubt it will be published by Jan 1</p>

<p>Anywho, worth a try</p>

<p>thanks</p>
