[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids who compete at the state level are excellent. They usually have great mentoring and mores side projects that they refine over years. Often, they are done in someone's professional lab. Some kids think up their own project in the vacuum of their own home, but not many. IT is great that your kid wants to do this. I hope he has already started working on this year's project because time is running out. Getting to the regional science fair in your own community is a great first step, then refine the project.[/quote] Realistically I can't picture my child finding a mentor and having side projects. How common is it?[/quote] My DD did it. Got into the local university lab internship, hooked with the professors, submitted her research result to Google and Simens science contest. [/quote]
