Can I include research done in high school if...

I was also enrolled in college classes (full time) when I did the research project? I wasn't attending high school but was still technically a student.

If it was before your graduation date, I wouldn't. You should have plenty of college research experience if you started research in HS. On the other hand, since you were full-time in college and if you had a shorter time after HS, I could possibly see it being okay to list said research? (Assuming, that is, that said research was done at a university under a PhD faculty member and not some sort of advanced HS research project.)

That is the case.

I agree. If you start bringing up your high school stuff on the AMCAS app, it sorta shows you didn't do anything worthwhile in college (I'm sure this is NOT the case for you🙂). Do you have any research experience from your college years, btw?

If it's significant research experience, by all means include it. I was washing dishes in 12th grade. Needless to say, I didn't include that.

I do, but it would still be nice to include it. Oh well

If you think it's going to help you. go for it!👍
