Why is every high school student doing research lately? Is it necessary for Top 50 schools?

It is the new version of creating a non-profit. Tons of kids do this to get into top 20s at our big 3. It has become so common over the past years. It works! You can pay the companies that will find you research partners or get it with connections your parents have at NIH, Georgetown, etc.

Which big3 is this?

leadership within school. Sports captain, student body president, etc.
These still hold weight even in 2024
