What is the value fo published research?

<p>If I co publish my research on schizophrenia with my mentor and a few ug students how impressive would published research look? It will most likely be published in ELSEVIER. I'm aiming for HYPS.</p>

<p>looks like crap. don't put in your resume whatever you do. </p>

<p>they will pity you.</p>

<p>I was actually kind of wondering that too. My friends, parents and guidance counselor make it seem like my publication into a science journal is a rare achievement that no one does in high school, but I really don't think it will set me apart that much...is it still good? Its not something that 1/2 of of the applicants at the top schools have is it?</p>

<p>It will look like crap?
Are you kidding with me? What are you basing these conclusions on?
Even people on the MIT board said it will look impressive? I just wanted to know how impressive.</p>

<p>Only 1.73 Impressive points, sorry!</p>

<p>Can someone who is serious answer this question?</p>
