<p>^^To add to quantmech’s post, biology is a very easy subject to do research in with only minimal knowledge (AP bio). Chem is a bit harder, although synthetic chem. might be easier than physical chem. Still, I think it’s a bit counterproductive to try to do synthetic chem research if you haven’t taken orgo. However, some advanced students have taken organic chem, so they would be fine. Physics is even harder, although I’ve known some very smart people that were able to do it.</p>

<p>At the very least, they could answer your questions.</p>
