<p>Ok, so my school requires all graduating students to do a graduation project. I'm in 11th grade right now, and am going to do my project on string theory (a topic I'm really in to). This semester we are writing a research paper on our topic. Would it look good to have this 7-8 page research paper with the supplemental materials? Or would the guy looking over it think that I am pathetic and stretching, not to mention a pain in the butt?</p>
<p>It’d be best to put in an abstract/summary at the beginning. They have suggested submitting research projects. My suspicion is that you would be equally served by mentioning it in either “something you created” or optional essay along with a very brief abstract.</p>
<p>Oh ok, thank you.</p>
<p>I’m just an applicant too, so I’m just saying what I’ve read from the website and blogs.</p>

<p>That’s the most official word.</p>
<p>Thanks for the source, I didn’t know you were an applicant. I thought you were like a mod or something. Well, good luck.</p>
