<p>I am going to sub,mit a research article I did in the field of neuroscience and hopefully it will be in review by the time apps are done? Where will this be sent? If this and the rec from the supervising scientist are really good will that make me more desirable?</p>
<p>Your article would likely be submitted to a peer reviewed journal. As for your last question, yes: a publication is obviously a big plus. Unfortunately even if you're accepted it's at best a 50/50 shot that it will be out before you hear from colleges (it depends on journal and other circumstances, but these things can take up to a year to come out from when you first submit them - and that's assuming it's green-lighted the whole way.)</p>
<p>Having it in review will still help though because it ill obviously get published after a while of edition.But I mean my supervising scientist could still say that it will eventually be submitted right and that would help right? </p>
<p>I also asked if the supervising scientist rec will make a big difference?</p>
<p>I think you misunderstood part of my question also. I meant who at Princeton will review it? My professor knows some professors there.</p>
<p>lmao. princeton hopeful ... </p>
<p>supplemental*</p>
<p>I typed it in 5 secs dude but thanks for your helpful post.</p>
<p>haha sorry, i had to.</p>
<p>but anyways, alot of friends have done research and its helped a ton in the college process. getting published is ridiculously hard, and in my opinion the chances of it being released before princeton reviews your app are slim. but to justify those odds, the # of students that DO get published before the end of senior year are quite low as well.</p>
<p>in any event, just have your mentor mention it. it will help ALOT if he praises you for your work and tells the adcoms about your being - published - paper.</p>
<p>by the way, i go to bx sci too.</p>
<p>if we do have a paper, can we submit it for admissions? i don't know if mine will be published but most likely cited later in the lab's future reserach.</p>
<p>BUMP.
CC search is horrible.
Question: should we submit a paper or just an abstract for admissions?</p>
<p>Maybe you can work the fact that you have a paper into the
"experience with engineering/science" paragraph in your
"Why Princeton/Why Engineering/science" essay?</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>just the abstract lol no body wants to read the whole thing ;)</p>
<p>I find it amusing that talk<em>about</em>ambition called out collegehopeful on spelling supplemental wrong, yet he can't spell "a lot" (two words)...</p>
<p>That's what happens to your vocab motivation once you don't have to take the SAT again...</p>
