[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] As was explained earlier in the thread, the competition winners had mentorship from scientists and access to elite labs. The same is true for the old famous intel and Siemens high school competition. An “average”kid who has a great idea and tinkers in their kitchen or garage has very little shot. You need contacts, you need time and money for transportation. It’s not just a matter of only needing google.[/quote] :roll: Well, there are other venues for the average kid tinkering in his kitchen and garage. There is social media now that talented people can showcase their talent. BUT, loser are gonna blame others. The average kid should consider himself lucky if he has atleast finished Algebra 2 in HS. The bar is pretty low for them and they will get a medal for participation. Never hear an average Asian kid complaining, but the non-Asians have excuses for everything. [/quote]
