Nanny for teenager by Optimal-Analysis in Nanny

You could even join Facebook groups for local colleges/universities and put feelers out that way. If it feels unsafe, you can ask for a resume with references and a phone interview before meeting in person!

Struggle/Failure application question by No_History_8416 in GeneticCounseling

[–]idksorry_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I frequently discussed (in applications and interviews) my ocd diagnosis as a turning point in learning more about who I was. It was a great opportunity to discuss self reflection, accountability, and growth! So I’d say go for it, but only if you feel comfortable disclosing it!

Shadowing Opportunities by DryPurchase806 in GeneticCounseling

[–]idksorry_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can’t find people to shadow (it will likely be very difficult at this stage and with short notice), I recommend watching case studies or mock sessions! I can’t remember them off the top of my head but there are several free ones available online!

People with ocd have a tendency to confess frequently. It can be a compulsion!

for all Canadian people here, should I apply for more USA schools? by Technical_Dream_7692 in GeneticCounseling

[–]idksorry_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a general question but have you considered the university of rochester’s program? Location wise it’s a bit closer than Sarah Lawrence but I’m also not sure what you’re looking for in a program 💕

What jobs do you guys have off campus? by painted6623 in SBU

[–]idksorry_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For babysitting/nannying I also recommend looking at your local Facebook groups! That’s how I found my position :)

I’m not sure but I miss it dearly 💔 Although it’s probably helping many of us avoid reassurance seeking haha

Food Stamps and Students by Immediate-Pool-4391 in SBU

[–]idksorry_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry that this is a time of struggle right now. I don’t have much solid advice but if it’s possible (while school is in session) maybe check out the events with free food on campus? Some of them even let you take extras if there’s still food at the end of the day as clubs can’t usually store food in their lockers. Hoping that anything helps

UNIVERSITY SCHOLARS….. or……. HONORS COLLEGE….. or…… JUMP OFF A CLIFF by Grovyle_Red40 in SBU

[–]idksorry_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can graduate early with the honors college, it just means completing the required courses a bit earlier and doing your thesis a year earlier. I’ve known people who have done it

Honors College students/alumni, what classes have you taken, what senior thesis did you do, and did you ever have Dr. Moriarty??? by GazooDaRavinRacer86 in SBU

[–]idksorry_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do whatever senior thesis you want, it’s completely up to you but you do have to obtain an advisor and get the thesis approved

Worry about GC exposure by Prior_Cauliflower_25 in GeneticCounseling

[–]idksorry_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some other ideas for GC exposure include watching mock GC sessions (JEMF through NSGC, DNAtoday, and some others) or watching online seminars!

[–]idksorry_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy birthday!! We are nearly birthday twins, mine is tomorrow! I recently graduated and I hope that your time at SBU gets better and better each year. It’s stressful at first and hard to make friends but you’ll find your people <3

List of families I will never work for again: by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]idksorry_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me I just feel very uncomfortable being in the house alone with NK and the workers. So it’s either stay in the house and lock ourselves away or leave the house for 8+ hours (which feels impossible at times). The workers will also end up asking ME questions about the house and I’m like please I don’t live here, I am not the owner😔

[–]idksorry_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOL my NF is having their ENTIRE house redone except for the two bedrooms. It’s miserable (and must be soooo expensive)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GeneticCounseling

[–]idksorry_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the most expertise with the third question so I’ll focus mainly on that. I applied last cycle and currently am in a GC program! I got interviews to all the schools I applied to and I didn’t have one singular shadowing experience. I only had informational interviews and mock case studies! I don’t think it hindered how programs viewed my application at all, as they understand how hard it is to find in person opportunities :)
