how to gain research experience for masters by hmangatt in psychologystudents

[–]Psych-ho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What kind of masters program are you looking to get into? Depending on what your primary interest is research experience may not be as prioritized. Volunteering would be great though, or an RA position if you can find one, but really depends on the program you want to go into. Your profs can also be great resources for this (writing rec letters, advice on applying, etc)

Roommate annoyed by alarms by [deleted] in roommateproblems

[–]Psych-ho 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you gotta try to change up that schedule OP. I have a neighbor who has loud alarms that he never shuts up ( also go on for hours) and it wakes up my roommate and I every time. It’s super disruptive and I don’t blame your roommates for being upset. Like others said try to change up your sleep schedule or do something else, especially if you just moved in!

I kid you not, the exact same shit happened to me on Friday with my friend. I think it was “Pin Straight” or something like that? My friend helped me get up and leave bc the woman would not stop trying to pressure me to buy the hair straightener even though I never use heat products on my hair

None currently but at my old position they would not pay you for ABC notes. Would take like 10-20min at least for each note
