Abstract Sheet Form PDF Details and Requirements

The Abstract Sheet Form is an official IJAS document used to evaluate student science projects at state-level competitions.

Students first choose their investigation type: Experimental or Design. This choice determines the scoring rubric applied to their project.

The form requires the project category, state region number, school name, IJAS number, city, zip code, school phone, and sponsoring teacher details. All entries must be typewritten for clarity.

The 250-word abstract section covers the project's purpose, procedure, and conclusion in three separate paragraphs. During the State Science Project Exposition and State Paper Session Competition, students must submit the required number of printed copies at the correct display size.
