Worth emailing universities about research project?

<p>Well, for some of my university supplements, there were questions about whether I was or have been involved in any research </p>

<p>In a British patterned education, it’s not really the case. When they mentioned research, scientists in lab coats came into my head and I automatically selected “no”. Upon further reflection, I was wondering whether the A2 coursework that I am undergoing, “Short Term effects of Weltpolitik on Germany” would constitute as research? The marks count towards my final grade but it wasn’t an assigned question and I have to do my own research, using primary sources etc. I was wondering if that would constitute as research? </p>

<p>And if it does, is it worth emailing universities letting them no about that fact. Bearing in mind that I have applied to about 15 universities.</p>
