About

Dive into how to do your own research! Research papers are becoming an increasingly important part of resumés, and are also an excellent skill to have. Through this series, we will understand the research process and how to go from Idea to Paper in your research journey.

As an added bonus – to put your research literacy to the test – students will have learn skills and have the chance to prep for the International Research Olympiad, a virtual global competition of over 6,000 students with the Finals hosted at Harvard University.

Hi, my name is Aritra, and I'm a junior in high school from New Jersey.  I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone and helping them achieve their dream SAT scores! I did well on my first SAT and was invited to tutor by the CollegeBoard. I'm a part of my school's newspaper, debate club, economics club, and also play violin; my other hobbies including writing poetry. I can't wait to help other students like me!
