    7. Research Find a mentor Do a project Sell it Science Fair, Siemens Competition, Intel STS, JSHS, etc.

    8. Olympiad Contests Math: just over 150,000 Biology & Chemistry: 10,000 each Physics: about 3600 Computer Science: 1000?

    9. Math Olympiad AMC10/12: 150,000 participants AIME: 10,000 participants USA(J)MO: 500 participants Do past problems from the contests Artofproblemsolving.com – books, online classes and resources forum

    10. Physics Olympiad F=ma exam: 3600 USAPhO Semifinal exam: 500 Past contests available on U.S. Physics Team website Textbooks (must read all, not just the AP Physics sections)

    11. Chemistry Olympiad Local Round: 10,000 total USNCO (not USACO): 1000 (at most two allowed per school) Mostly AP Chemistry material… bits and pieces of organic chemistry Do lots of problems!
