Let G be a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically dosed field K of characteristic p >= 0 and let V be an irreducible rational G-module with highest weight A. When is self-dual, a basic question to ask is whether V has a non-degenerate G-invariant alternating bilinear form or a non degenerate G-invariant quadratic form. If p not equal 2, the answer is well known and easily described in terms of A. In the case where p = 2, we know that if is self-dual, it always has a non-degenerate G-invariant alternating bilinear form. However, determining when V has a non-degenerate G-invariant quadratic form is a classical problem that still remains open. We solve the problem in the case where G is of classical type and A is a fundamental highest weight omega(i), and in the case where G is of type A(i) and lambda = omega(r) + omega(s) for 1
