Hey guys, I'm a rising senior and I think I'm cooked. I am great with volunteer hours (with over 300) and my extracurriculars are pretty good (nothing insane) but I have no research under professors. I have research of my own but no papers worked on with professors. I have a good amount of shadowing hours too (aiming to have 50-100 by the end of summer). How cooked am I guys?
hey so you're not cooked trust! all of those individual research projects could be under a professor if you include them as a source and/or have them proofread your paper. it's annoying, but you can easily find people who work in the field you're researching and send a ton of emails until you get a response. be sure to come up with related questions to ask (via email works fine) and ask if they'd be available to read over your paper. you can them list them as a source and add them as a contributor
Thank you!
