Every science fair participant must submit forms used to verify that the student’s work has been planned prior to starting experimentation and supervised by someone with knowledge of safety issues and regulations. At a minimum everyone is required to have FORMS 1, 1A, 1B, Official Abstract and Research Plan. Additional forms may be required depending on the scope of your project. Students can use the ISEF Rules Wizard to help figure out which forms are needed for their project.
