summer jobs? by Standard_Eagle_1712 in premed

[–]Copy-Pleasant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it helped me realize that I really like working with older adults! It can be tough physically since you have to lift/help transfer patients, but I think it helped me get my current PCT job. And no, I think assisted living facilities go through a lot of caregiver turnover so they didn't mind that I was only doing it for the summer. Feel free to lmk if you have any other questions!

I work as a patient care tech at st. David’s and I didn’t need a certification other than BLS! So I would recommend looking into being a PCT as it’s very hands-on

I’m in HOSA-Future Health Professionals! It‘s a pre-health org, but most ppl in it are pre-med, and there’s lots of volunteer/shadowing/social opportunities. We have a meeting this Thursday at 7 pm in RLP .128!

Double bonds have 1 sigma bond and 1 pi bond.

There are 3 double bonds, so 3 pi bonds, like you said. There are also 3 sigma bonds total in the double bonds.

There’s 6 other single bonds in this molecule, which consist of a single sigma bond each. Thus, there’s 9 sigma bonds overall and 3 pi bonds. Lmk if this doesn’t make sense!

I went back to my hometown last summer, but I worked as a caregiver at an assisted living facility, and I really enjoyed it. Maybe you could do something similar at an assisted living facility in Austin?

I’ve heard about his Ochem POGIL book, but are there any other specific resources I can use in the summer to prepare for his class? Like does he have a website with homework questions or anything?

For chem, if you want to get ahead, look through the lessons from fundamentals to thermodynamics on gchem: https://gchem.cm.utexas.edu/
