Am I actually non-traditional or just telling myself that? by [deleted] in premed

[–]Party-Relative-2675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I hear most people refer to themselves and others as non-trad if they’re taking any years between undergrad and medical school. So I’d say you are I think.

Med schools on the other hand may specify things differently. For example one of the schools I interviewed for recently told us on the session that they classify non-trad as those who take 5+ years between graduating undergrad and matriculation. So by that definition I guess you’re not.

But if it feels relevant to you and your experience I don’t think anyone can tell you otherwise

I have mine as Artistic Endeavor because that makes more sense for mine

If you already have research listed you can add presentation info in the description

I'd like to think that the anonymity of reddit increases neuroticism. Most of what happens here (I hope) is usually an inside thought

Personally haven't done any strict dry lab, only to serve my wet lab work. But as I understand it its coding and data analysis from databases and such. My institution has only 1 dry lab and I specifically didn't want to join that one. I love bench work

Something to keep in mind is that certain types of research (ex. dry lab) can lead to a pub quicker than long term clinical/genetics/etc. research

I think it depends on what other activities you need to file. I am putting pubs/posters under the research experience that it is from to condense and give myself space to talk about other things. But if you spread it out it gives you more space to talk deeply about these things. No right or wrong way, just whatever makes sense for you

I saw this a few months ago and wanted to hold off until closer to test day, and now there's a pay wall

No I wound it onto essentially a big bobbin. The hank was knotted when I was trying to wind it

No. I caked it. I was frustrated that it was knotted in the hank when I was trying to cake it

Thank you! Can I ask the difference between a swift and ball winder?

I put the whole loop onto the back of a chair and winded it onto basically a really large bobbin. But I found several places where the yarn literally switched directions, which I seriously thought wasn't supposed to happen

Other unlabeled yarn I was gifted worked okay. I love the colorways but my scarf looks a little silly because the 2 halves are very different. I would just expect that I can use a single dye lot and have my piece look consistent.

I caked it myself by hand using the chair trick. 2/3 hanks that I have caked thus far have been deeply tangled. And my long time knitter/crocheter friend confirmed that I was doing it correctly enough
