<p>Hey guys, I'm new to the forums, but I figured this would be the appropriate place for this question. I'm interested in entering the 2012 Siemens competition, and I am currently a Junior. But, I really don't know where to start: when deadlines are due, how to get a mentor, etc. I was wondering if anyone here who have entered the competition before would like to give me some details and some info. on how to start, that would be great! thanks!</p>
<p>Deadline last year was October 1. For more info, check out the website. Somewhere you’ll find a PDF with all of the rules.</p>
<p>op said he wanted to know about 2012 competition… not last years</p>
<p>Well I would suggest to start by emailing a professor in a nearby college to get an interview. You most likely would NEED people/speech skills. It’s difficult to ease relations with a college professor without people people skills- as my brother (Siemens Semi Finalist) puts it.</p>
<p>And yes go on the website for more info about the dates.</p>
