The opportunity to work directly with a university professor while still in high school is fantastic. Wish I'd had it. I hope you ended up taking advantage of it with someone else. Even if you're not totally absorbed in the research, this will give you a huge leg up when you reach college.

Living near the University of Maryland and NIST and etc, there really are a bunch of opportunities to work with professors and researchers in high school - it's really quite great. I hope (slash think, but knock on wood) that I'm going to be able to work with either another math professor or a theoretical physicist over the summer. :)
