Iowa SSTP 2011

<p>One of the first questions they ask is “Briefly describe works, performances, honors, or awards which indicate your exceptional talent in this area”. But I’m not sure if I have anything that shows my “exceptional talent”… I haven’t participated in any science competitions (except for one which I didn’t even make to Round 2) or done any research before.</p>

<p>Would something like making a picture book explaining molecular bonding (a chemistry project for school) qualify? I have no idea what to put :|</p>

<p>Also the next question is “List any special classes or programs in which you have participated related to this area”. Should I really only list the names of the programs I’ve attended, or can I elaborate a little on what I did at the program (learned about medical professions, did lab experiments, etc.)</p>
