I do suggest that people look up the ISEF - the International Science and Engineering Fair. This is NOT your typical High School Science Fair in the gym. To get to this level she had to win both at her school level and at the state level. She did so in 2007. These awards help science students get into universities with strong science and engineering programs.

That said, the interchange is interesting. She knows the significance of chromosomes in plants. The issue that she has to face is whether she will let the science of human chromosomes XX and XY and the inextricable connection to gender. Yes, there a couple of very rare variants, but the frequency is so low that it doesn't help the left’s agenda. I'd like to see how she handles this problem from a scientific point of view.

A second issue is that without civil discourse with a willingness to be data-driven, nothing changes. Ben Shapiro is right: Facts don't care about your feelings. Sadly, humans frequently hold on to conclusions not supported by the available data.

She “made” it to that fair at the exact moment chicks were being pushed for every STEM thing imaginable. She was a minority, in the NE.
She never pursued science in college.

The conclusion on how she got there is pretty easy to draw.

I understand it was a pretty prestigious science competition, but considering she's since shown no understanding of science or economics or international politics (her double major), I doubt that she worked on that presentation alone.

She appears to have been helped along the way in all her endeavors. When interviewed, she can spout a coherent and logical point, but questioned to expound further, she laughs and throws up her hands, admitting she's already told you everything she knows.
