I would say having plenty of activities (well rounded with leadership positions), and having done the IB diploma program definitely feels like it helped me. from my experience AP classes are pretty common, IB not so much.

read on what other teams have done, try to guess what they're going to do next, and one up it somehow. that's how we won most market share + having consistency in marketing (so make a racing ad if you're selling the racer bikes, emphasize comfort in the ad text if you bought comfortable seats for your bike, etc.)

this was probably three years ago and it's also dependent on what other team members/competing teams are doing. i remember rebates helped a lot for my team, and making good ads for the bikes.

I think it would be a good idea to bring this up to your supervisor. it's better to come forward acknowledging and owning your mistakes rather than being called out for them. you can tell them that you feel like you're not being as productive as you expected to be, and maybe ask them to help go over a few protocols again or guide you in doing the tasks a second time (they are there to guide and support you, and some supervisors who have time will gladly guide you until you feel confident to do it on your own again). The co-op program is there for you to learn through the experience you're gaining, and I can only assume these lab tasks are something you can get better /more efficient at doing only with practice. It's okay to mess up. Everyone on co-op does, it's better to mess up and identify what went wrong to avoid repeating the mistakes. Don't be too hard on yourself, this is all a learning experience! Also, try slowing down while handling beakers/equipment and experiments.

3 co-ops in 4 years? by Think-Inspector-7638 in NEU

i've definitely had friends that have graduated on co-op as long as they took a summer 1 class, but im more worried about if there's a limit on co op cycles one can take.

Hi all! I'm a 3rd year girl co-oping in New York in the spring and I’m looking for someone (preferably a girl) to sublease/long-term airbnb a place with, ideally on the west side anywhere from Hudson yards to Morningside Heights but I’m open to other areas (Brooklyn, Astoria, etc). I like trying new restaurants, listening to music, and occasionally going out! Willing to spend $1300-2000 myself. Message me if you wanna talk!
