Hey guys,

So I’ve had a few friends who are starting research projects that they have put into the science fair, for physics, math, etc. I want to be a researcher when I grow up, and I feel that I would really enjoy doing something like this [like the things the guys do at siemens and intel competitions]. And of course, it has the added perk of looking good on college applications.


But, the hardest thing is knowing where and when to start? How do I try to do something like this, or think up of ideas? I am clueless as to where to start research for this type of stuff.

Anybody who has entered these competitions, or just competed in a science fair, can you give me some advice? Thanks!
