But let’s start from the beginning – can you briefly introduce yourself?
Remember when we wrote about the finale of our science communication competition Znanstvenik u meni (The Scientist in Me)? Applications for high school students in Croatia are open until December 20th.
Getting into a good college doesn’t have to be a reward for extreme sacrifice; it can be, instead, a side effect of the much grander goal of building a meaningful and engaging life.

Think of a typical high school student who gets into a world-class college or university, like Cambridge, MIT, or one of the Ivy League universities.
