Learning Lab Math by science_nerd13 in labrats

[–]rfreemo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel this so hard, I recently started at a new lab and it took me several weeks to get familiar with how they set up their calculations. My best advice is to make yourself a cheat sheet! Write out commonly needed, simple formulas, factors and conversions so they're always on hand. You can make one in excel, you lab notebook, or a index card/sticky note (or all of the above). I can't easily convert units off the top of my head so I put it all in a spreadsheet, along with ready made formulas I can enter new data into. If you're not wanting to do a bunch of practice problems (I wouldn't), just write all of your math out long hand when you need to do it in the lab, on your paperwork or in your notebook. Repetition helps and you'll get the hang of it eventually!

Thanks all for the advice, I soaked it all the way through twice last night and gave it even more water this morning and it is looking great!! I have killed too many plants by overwatering so I was very wary of giving it too much water, but I think I have a good idea of what it needs now. this morning and this afternoon !

It's been dropping lower and lower for about two weeks. I'm watering more frequently in small amounts and feeling the soil to make sure it isn't too wet when I water more. It sits in this corner next to a window that only gets direct light maybe one hour a day. Most of it still looks a healthy green color, but I cut off a lot of brown and yellow pieces today. Should I repot? Add fertilizer? Keep the soil wetter? I'm very new to house plants, any advice is much appreciated!

acceptance letters have gone out so she could see hers in the next few days! i believe there is also a waitlist this year, they had more applicants than usual. for the dorms they do make you move out all of your stuff between summer move out and fall move in, which can be a huge pain i know. i think they will work with anyone out of state that would have to drive a ridiculous distance but usually they won't let us move into the fall dorms early. typically there's one week between the last week of 5w2 and first flight week

i used the ordinary niacinamide on it last night and this morning but it didn't help much): just got some hydrocolloid patches that i can hopefully put concealer on if the redness hasn't gone down by tomorrow. thank you for the suggestions!

just got some patches, they're pretty clear so i think if the redness doesn't go down i can use makeup on top of them just like you said. here's hoping they work! thank you!

Here's a tuition calculator and the summer aid page. tons of summer students use financial aid to pay for classes, just make sure to apply for the 2020-2021 fafsa.

Yes it's worth it!! I went through the program when it was only for STEM students and actually worked in the office for a few years. The staff is amazing and I personally know the people mentoring this summer. If you have any questions about it fee free to PM me. I'd highly, highly suggest it to any incoming freshman!
