I found only one problem with this otherwise accurate advice; I didn\u2019t know what I wanted to do my Capstone on! How could I start early if I didn\u2019t know what to start? I searched for a long time for a project that I was passionate about and finally I found it. While getting an early start on your Capstone is beneficial, it won\u2019t do you any good if you don\u2019t love what you\u2019re working on. Finding a project that you are interested in and genuinely care about takes time and patience but the search is worthwhile. Choose your project carefully and your passion will shine through in your finished product!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Emma completed her Capstone, &#8220;Using a Combination of TEOAEs and DPOAEs to Better Identify Mild Hearing Loss,&#8221; with the help of her advisor, Dr. Beth Prieve.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-8791\" src=\"https:\/\/honors.syr.edu\/capstone\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/10\/diagram-of-human-ear-300x263.jpg\" alt=\"diagram of human ear\" width=\"300\" height=\"263\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How could I start early?!
