Hi!
I’m applying RD to Columbia and had a question for anyone who has applied and submitted a research abstract as a supplement to their app. I did research in history/politics for my Extended Essay as an IB student and worked on the paper for several months with a teacher as a mentor. Is it a good idea to submit an abstract at all if my research isn’t science based and not conducted at a professional level? Also, would a note from my mentor be more useful than me submitting the abstract at all? Just not sure what to do because I worked on the paper for several months but I wouldn’t want it to hurt me in the app process!
