Hello.

The first question you must answer is what you enjoy studying. I would place these topics in three categories: photography, programming, and forensic science. Do you have a favorite topic?

If they are all equally interesting to you, then examine each experiment as to difficulty rating, time and materials required, and prerequisites. For example, for the DNA and crime scene experiments, you will have to order materials online and have access to a laboratory with specific testing equipment. Also, the crime scene experiment is quite costly. Be sure to consult with your parents about what cost will be manageable.

Make a list of pros / cons for each experiment and try to rank order them. Choose the one that you rank as the highest.

I hope this helps. If you are still having problems selecting, please write back. Good luck!
