How a student can get involved in programs like RSI and ISEF, even with parental encouragement, when they want to participate but don't know how to start on their own…
Here was my path to Stanford for graduate school (M.A. + acceptance at Brown University - no safety schools); later in life, M.S. IT & Telecommunication Systems, Johns Hopkins University. High School - 1. Get stoned a lot. 2. Skip school a lot. 3. Shack up with girlfriend (1 year). 4. Grow hair to shoulder length. 5. Ride dirt bikes. 6. Graduate in bottom quarter of class. College (state university): 1. Get excited about learning. 2. Take the most rigorous courses. 3. Write down every word you encounter in your college reading and remember the definitions. 4. Graduate with honors in 3 years. 5. Garner knock out letters of recommendation from faculty members. 6. Score 90th percentile or better on the GRE. 7. Know that for all your accomplishments you are still stepping up to a roulette wheel.
I have seen many videos of Ivy League student but this is the best , he explains everything so clearly and doesn’t boast or show off, his advice is pretty bang on and very helpful. He doesn’t need to do this but he is helping student like me so much. I religiously watch him . 😊 keep making videos please Orr at least until I pass out 😂
No offence, but as a sophomore, you mentioned that you were looking at Harvard's website. Weren't you already on Time Magazine's list of the 25 most influential teenagers at that point? Surely they would have accepted you with open arms?
Unfortunately my high school has many policies in place to prevent freshman and sophomores from taking AP classes and even juniors and seniors are limited to 5 at most (even that is very difficult with all the school policies). Thankfully, I’m enjoying our wide selection of clubs and ECs available.
Rishab, did you look into Harvard's Advanced Standing program. It will allow you to take advanced courses as a freshman and allow you to graduate in three years (saving a lot of tuition fees) or you can stay for another year and get a master's after four. The class of 2027 is eligible for this program.
JHU incoming freshman here! We seem to have similar interests! Also, I like how you say not to compare yourself, as it's something I'm still working on, and it's an important message.
my mind is blown with the fact that theres 9th graders taking precalc, in puertorico we take algebra 2 or geometry in 9th grade, and I myself was in what I would call a shitty school since I took Algebra 1 in 9th, im now in 11th in a school specialized in math and science where i would have been taking trigonometry now but since i need geometry to graduate im taking math classes with 10th graders. I alr learned all of geometry by my self at home with khan academy and am planning to do the same with every other math class, hopefully getting to Calculus classes soon, in 12th grade ill be taking trigonometry, pre calc and statistics but i hope i alr know everything that will be taught beforehand
on an unrelated note, how much prep time did u have for ISEF? at my school we only have a month to do all the research and find what we want to do for the science fair but it seems like theyre having us do 2 science fair projects, one in investigation and another in engineering. We have till October 30th to hand in all the papers related to what we are going to do, mentors and any legal approval for our testings. Winner in the school competes national and from there the best go to ISEF 2024
You are truly a role model. I love wacthing you videos. I am an international student, and I want to attend Harvard later. I m also interested in stem, just like you
What do you think my chances are against applicants like you (this is a serious question)? Do I need to do more? Background: • Hs junior • Asian + Pacific Islander • 3rd generation • Single parent home • 1 Million dollar per year income family • interested in psychology + psychiatry Stats: • 4.8 weighted gpa, 4.0 unweighted • 1580 on sat • took 13 ap courses and -5 on every exam • Varsity track captain -qualified and competed nationally • Decade of taekwondo -3rd degree black belt • Decade of piano • 100 hours community service - at homeless shelters and medical institutions • 2.5 years independent psychiatry + psychology research at home • Fundraised $20,000 by selling pens in front of stores - donated necessities to homeless I’m being serious about this question and don’t mean to boast towards anyone if interpreted that way. I am also not asking for validation. I did a lot of things but didn’t get any awards from research and writing and things like you did. I was never nationally recognized in my interested field of study. Thank you
@@RishabJainK Thank you for taking the time to respond to my comment, and advice on not comparing. I’m just really anxious because there are a lot of other truly talented and passionate individuals out there, such as yourself, applying to the same schools as me, and doing way more than me. Added on top of parental expectations. Beside that, you have inspired me to do even more and to start participating in Olympiads. Thank you Rishab, have a good one, and wish you well in your studies. I will definitely consider your advice.
I'm just curious - how did you build your knowledge base for your science research? I noticed that you didn't take courses like ap bio or chem until later in your high school career, so how were you able to complete such advanced research so early on?
My 6th grade bio class covered a lot of material. After that, I was inspired to do more. I started reading bio topics and watching videos in that area. Also, see my video about passion/idea for research.
@@RishabJainK Do you have any suggestions as to where I could learn more about science topics? I’ve been reading journal articles, but I feel like they don’t provide a strong foundation for me to actually conduct my own research
@Rishab Jain Absolutely correct Boss. Go around and find any sixth grader who remotely has any idea without diligent efforts by parents, teachers, tutors, elder brothers. Your resume is unbelievable is all I can say. Just go line by line and explain to every highschooler you are marketing these videos with honestly. How in the world you came up with all these? Or better yet who came up with all these? U must be smart but THIS SMART! N irony is none of the information you provide can help anybody. These poor teenagers are clueless. Most highschools have no capability or time to help the students or owners students have to watch videos like yours to start research. 😮
My achievements speak for themselves. I don't really need to prove their authenticity to random commenters on TH-cam. Thanks! 👀 I make these videos to help other high schoolers - to help them be able to do the same things (or better things) that I did.
Hello. Congratulations on your accomplishments. Could you please make a video about starting STEM research in middle school. Any programs for middle schoolers, science fairs, interniships, etc
dang he got to do precalc in 9th grade and chem and ap psych... the highest class at my school for 9th is advanced geometry and biology for science and you cant take AP psych at my school until 11th grade....
I do not know about you, but getting into AP Calculus BC in your Junior Year is impressive. Unfortunately, there are some other people who are taking it in their Sophomore Year. What do I do to become a better applicant?
Hey man! Great video!! A small request, can u make a detailed video on how I can get into foreign universities for undergrad, like from scratch.. I've seen videos on it but idk what to do exactly.. It'll be so help helpful if u covered everything in it like scholarships as my financial background isn't that good enough to study in abroad and also on how I can improve my application as, for now i don't have many extra curricular's, thank you!
hey rishab, at 6:56 you were talking abt not having to take the ap lit exam since you got a 5 on the ap lang exam. You said that this was according to your research about the colleges that you were applying to (I understand you pointed out that this was only for harvard, stanford and mit). I couldn't find that online, so do you think you could show me where it talks about that on a college's website or something? thanks
Hi Rishab, I have a question. Which are the websites where you published your research papers? I am interested in research works, and I just needed your advice on the most appropriate, legit and honest website. Your videos are very inspiring for us, keep it up!
I just want to apply for harverd,stanford,or even mit...as a nepali student can i get a schlorship for my masyers degree..and if yes which course is the best??please do reply
im not sure what to do... I have a 5.7 weighted gpa with easy classes. I have no extracurriculars and nothing going for me. What do I do to do the most in 3 years?
Hi there, Rishan Jain. I hope you're doing good. My question to you is, you said you wanted to be a medical student (i think you already are), and yet you're so good at maths and physics. You literally created an algorithm to help fight pancreatic cancer, that's very genius. I'm a student whose not very good at physics and maths, but I love it. I don't want to part away from it after 12th grade, which is why I'm confused as to which career I should opt. Unfortunately in my country, there's a lot of competition and majority of the people opting for maths and physics go for a highly competitive entrance exam (which by the way you may have already guessed and you know how difficult it is). I however do not wish to do any of that. I do want to receive good education in maths, physics, coding. But I'm not interested into the IT sector, i want to work individually. So, my question is, I see how innovative you are despite not being an engineer and stuff, you're so Good at innovations and you wanna be a doctor? I assume. So are you studying biotechnology at Harvard or basically what are you studying? And what would you advice me in this?
Hey Rishab, I feel like a disappointment to my parents and I was wondering if you had some tips. Should I be feeling regretful for only taking 2 AP classes?
also for computer science, what ECs should I take? How do I get scholarships for summer programs & colleges? What advanced classes should I take for CS? What are your opinions on IB classes?
CS is nice because there is such a low barrier to entry. You could start making websites right now if you have a computer. I’d recommend pursuing passion projects in any realm of computer science or software that interests you, such as web development, mobile development, AI, and more
Im currently a freshman in high school, and I am looking to plan out the rest of my schedule. im pretty sure I want to go into some kind of engineering, but I really enjoy social studies and English. Im a little conflicted on what to do my senior year though. I am in algebra 2 honors right now, which means i would take precalc, calc ab, but im not sure what math class I want to take my senior year. ofc Calc BC is a class that a lot of people take, but my school also offers AP statistics. Does anybody have any advice on which to pick? Thanks!
I love your videos!! I am probably going to have a 3.9 GPA at the end of highschool with an 8 weighted gpa. Anything I can do to offset the 3.9? Ty in advance!!
I think it's interesting that a significant portion of the comments are talking about school classes - despite these being perhaps the least impressive part.
@ karna Ghose Absolutely correct Boss. Go around and find any sixth grader who remotely has any idea without diligent efforts by parents, teachers, tutors, elder brothers.

If you want to apply to Harvard, they require/recommend 4 years of foreign lang. So unless you got high school credit in middle school, it might mess you up.
I can’t speak for his school, but for ours, we don’t have AP physics 1 and 2, our school only does the calculus based physics classes, like Mechanics and E&M
My son’s stats is better than yours. However, he did not get into any of HSM, private universities are focused only on Hooks, and very biased on race and other DEI issues. My son got into Berkeley MET program and some ivies. Anyway, college admission is very crazy right now. Same stats is not treated in the same way but thanks for your sharing
Colleges increasingly care about extracurricular activities and essays as opposed to just stats. I am an Asian Male which is one of the most competitive race groups if you factor in DEI.
@@normalperson8484 Indeed, anybody can open their mouths and say things. Mr Eric, display your son's record let's all see. Lol. Then we will believe you. It's not enough to just declare "my son has better stats". Lol. I challenge you, show us. Otherwise, you're not truthful.

Students should remember that stats do not get a student admitted to colleges like Harvard, Stanford, and MIT. And 'bragging' about stats can be a reason to get rejected. This is a youtube video, so Rishab is playing the youtube game. But if a student had an interview with an admissions counselor and appeared to be bragging, things might end poorly.
i'm from sri lanka Ever since I was little, I have been waiting to go to Mit University .In Sri Lanka we have sat and ielts courses but we don't have ap classes in our Sri Lankan schools. i really want to get accepted to mit after my high school is there anything i can do how can i contact you

Hi there, Rishan Jain. I hope you're doing good.

Hey Rishab 👋🏼 I've found your TH-cam channel quite recently. How are you so genius? How did you prepare yourself to be in such a position?
@ karna Ghose Absolutely correct Boss. Go around and find any sixth grader who remotely has any idea without diligent efforts by parents, teachers, tutors, elder brothers. Your resume is unbelievable is all I can say. Just go line by line and explain to every highschooler you are marketing these videos with honestly. How in the world you came up with all these? Or better yet who came up with all these? U must be smart but THIS SMART! N irony is none of the information you provide can help anybody. These poor teenagers are clueless. Most highschools have no capability or time to help the students or owners students have to watch videos like yours to start research. 😮
You are still in 12 but accepted in college how that works
Most people apply for college in 12th grade. Is that not the same where you live?
Did you take any physics classes before AP physics C? Thank you!
Nope - besides 8th grade physics.
Please did you take the sat subject test for mit?
There are no more SAT Subject Tests...
@@RishabJainK thanks
Hi what summer courses would be beneficial for a student who wants to pursue Economics and Statistics combination and not pure science?
did u find any?
Don't show this video to my parents💀💀💀
They're already brown enough💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
😂😂😂😂😂
Due to conflicting classes, I was only able to take 1 year of Spanish in high school. Will this screw me when I apply to top 20s?
Most schools require 2 years but you might get an exception if you do really well/ stand out in something. Idk though 🤔
If you want to apply to Harvard, they require/recommend 4 years of foreign lang. So unless you got high school credit in middle school, it might mess you up.
funny how these days people like ishowspeed can also get into harvard because of how famous he is across internet lol
How did you take physics c before 1 and 2
I can’t speak for his school, but for ours, we don’t have AP physics 1 and 2, our school only does the calculus based physics classes, like Mechanics and E&M
Did I miss your GPA??
HOW DID U DO PRE CALC IN 9TH HUH 😭
he either took geometry in 7th, or took alg 1 in 7th and took geometry over the summer
wowwwwww
My son’s stats is better than yours. However, he did not get into any of HSM, private universities are focused only on Hooks, and very biased on race and other DEI issues. My son got into Berkeley MET program and some ivies. Anyway, college admission is very crazy right now. Same stats is not treated in the same way but thanks for your sharing
Colleges increasingly care about extracurricular activities and essays as opposed to just stats. I am an Asian Male which is one of the most competitive race groups if you factor in DEI.
Is it even possible to have better stats than this guy?😂😂😂😂
What?😂 just saying your son is better with no proof on the internet is just funny.
@@normalperson8484 Indeed, anybody can open their mouths and say things. Mr Eric, display your son's record let's all see. Lol. Then we will believe you. It's not enough to just declare "my son has better stats". Lol. I challenge you, show us. Otherwise, you're not truthful.

Students should remember that stats do not get a student admitted to colleges like Harvard, Stanford, and MIT. And 'bragging' about stats can be a reason to get rejected. This is a youtube video, so Rishab is playing the youtube game. But if a student had an interview with an admissions counselor and appeared to be bragging, things might end poorly.
Ohiooooo
you're insane
