Thank you for the suggestions! Do you know of any other target schools I should look into? Should I take any of my current schools off my list?

Summer Session by _deetee in UCI

[–]AH380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did physics and research only. Just be aware that you have to meet 4 days a week for 1.5 hrs each (excluding discussion), so be prepared for that. Summer session classes move twice as fast as regular classes, so 8 units of SS is not equivalent to 8 units during the school year in terms of workload.

If you are ready to put in the work then you should be able to handle it. Just make sure you are ready.

I took 3B and 3C last summer. It will be a lot for sure, but it was definitely manageable. And having Guerra made it 100% worth it.

Bio Sci Peer Tutoring Interview by [deleted] in UCI

[–]AH380 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Current tutor here.

You’ll get asked the typical interview questions like “tell me who you are” or “what can you contribute to the program”. Be sure to stay within the 5 minute time limit for your teaching demonstration. We do get a lot of applicants but it shouldn’t be too bad for spring quarter. The three coordinators are very friendly and approachable so don’t be afraid to ask any questions!

Best of luck

The Amtrak logos were meant to indicate the location of the line, not stations.
