Topic = Aerospace engineering
  1. Easy to fit with the EPQ requirements
    1. Is your idea appropriate for an EPQ?
      1. Q : For example, is your topic dependent on a lot of support from others? An EPQ requires independent study.
        1. I will be able to complete this task independently from others and I believe that it is suitable for the EPQ
    2. Time
      1. Q : How much time have you planned to dedicate to your EPQ?
        1. A : I am able to spend a lot of time on my EPQ because firstly I don't have anything else to do with my time, and it also aligns with my current research.
      2. Achievability
        1. Consider the scope of your topic.
          1. Q : In other words, is your idea both big enough and small enough to make a convincing project within the word count?

          2. Help available
            1. Q : How much help do you need with finding out about the topic?
              1. Q : Are you certain that there is enough support for your choice of topic?
                1. A : Yes 98% sure.
                2. A : I think i'll need minimal help with the topic I have chosen because I have put many hours into the research of this topic and I have developed an understanding of this area.
              2. Your motivation
                1. Consider why you are doing your EPQ.
                  1. If it is to enhance your UCAS Personal Statement, choose a topic that does do this.
                    1. I have chosen a topic that is directly related to the subject I will be applying for at University.
                2. Ease of finding information
                  1. Investigate how easy it is to find the information you need.
                    1. If this is difficult, you may need to rethink the topic.
                      1. I have spent many hours already researching this topic
                  2. Current coursework
                    1. Remember your EPQ cannot repeat work you have done in your A-Level or other coursework.
                      1. It can extend something you have already investigated, but it MUST NOT be the same.
                        1. My project is not related to any of my current course work
                    2. Ethics
                      1. Is your project ‘ethical’?
                        1. In other words, if your topic involves people in some way, ensure you respectful both of their privacy and in the way you discuss them.
                          1. Yes
                        2. Current knowledge
                          1. I have a good understanding Of the topic I have chosen.
