PHILOSOPHY
Science fair should be fun
Science competitions changed the trajectory of our lives. They introduced us to one another, led to lifelong friendships, and created opportunities we could not have imagined when we began.
We want the same for every student we advise: succeed at the highest level and genuinely enjoy the ride. The standard stays at the level your goals demand, but the work should be fun and personal. Honest conversations, shared momentum, friends made along the way, and people you want to call when something does not go as planned.
We also believe research is self-expression. The quirky parts of how you think belong in the work, in the story you tell about it, and in how you show up to defend it. Our job is to make the work unmistakably yours, then make it undeniable for your priorities.
600 of 7 million science fair competitors win an ISEF Grand Award. 1 in 500,000 win an ISEF Top Award.
Dromos’s team holds 19 Regeneron ISEF Grand Awards, seven Top Awards, and $300,000+ in earnings from the competitions we advise.
To our knowledge, no other science fair consultancy has achieved more prestigious recognition than Dromos.
Society for Science alumni have won 15 Nobel Prizes, three Fields Medals, and 28 MacArthur Fellowships.
Every one of them started in the competitions we advise.
Competition knowledge expires
Science fair competitions change the rules every single year. We make it our priority to recruit recent winners to ensure compliance.
We teach you the details most overlook that lead to the biggest wins
- How do you change the framing of your project depending on the competition and audience?
- How do you shift your presentation pending the judge... their tone... their body language... their experience?
- How do you address a judge when they first come up? Just talk? Small talk? Introduction?
- What do you do when you genuinely do not know the answer to a question?
- What do you do when a judge is being outright disrespectful?
- Which competitions do you really need to apply for?
- Do you actually need to log everything in a lab notebook?
- How much energy should you actually put into your annotations?
- When judges arrive late what do you do?
- What to do when your poster gets lost the day before judging?
Many more will come up during our advising.
You work directly with all the founders
Proximity.
When practical and tangibly important we will fly out to your competition to support you firsthand.
We work with your existing support system.
Research mentors, teachers, counselors: we can join the calls, align the story, and make sure every adult around your student is pulling in the same direction. Research is hard to explain. We know exactly how to tell the story of you specifically.
