Absolutely. Keep working at it and you’ll get there. It’s not about being the best in tests and stuff (though you do have to meet some standards) but more about the passion and curiosity you bring to it. I’d recommend getting involved in as many science projects as you can. This one is a great example, but maybe try and find some volunteering work too – I volunteered at things like my local marine centre – you get to learn more and it shows people you are really dedicated! Good luck and hopefully one day I will get to work with you!
