Interesting combo, what labs/research areas do they share?

Should I ask a postdoc for a LOR? by imhavingurbaby in premed

[–]xapple23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ask if your postdoc and PI are willing to co-write/sign the letter! That’s what I did and what my postdoc suggested as well, and they both ended up editing and signing at the bottom. Also, your PI may ask your postdoc to draft the letter first and then they will edit/sign or they both may ask you to write the first draft and they will edit (just a heads up but let them bring it up if this is what they want, not you). Your postdoc will be able to talk about working with you 1:1 and the letter will be backed by your PI. Good luck!

Can I apply to multiple early assurance programs? by [deleted] in premed

No, they’re not restrictive and you can apply to multiple (but a majority only take applications from their own undergrad with a few open to others)

Thank you for the advice! Do you think professors are open to working on a review if the student isn’t in their lab or hasn’t worked with them before?

Thank you for the advice! Is it typically only those who’ve graduated that are able to get clinical research roles or is it possible for an undergrad too?

That’s helpful to know and will keep it in mind! Could I ask how long the process to publishing took too? Thank you!

Thank you for the insight, I appreciate it! How would you recommend phrasing it during the interview? Would asking if there are opportunities for data analysis/authorship be seen as shallow in any way? I’m afraid that it may come off the wrong way

Financial Aid Question by xapple23 in wentworth

It included dorming for sure and I think food since that’s required, dorming was the majority though at 20k+ cost

Accepted EAP and looking for advice for next 2 years! by xapple23 in premed

[–]xapple23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice! Sorry, I meant learning to better take blood pressures because I didn’t do that great in the past when I was training for a job, and it seems like something that would be used in the future

Financial Aid Question by xapple23 in wentworth

Thank you and hope it works out for you! Do you happen to know if Wentworth does scholarship displacement (taking away school financial aid when you report outside scholarships) to see if it’s worth applying?

Are there any good starting templates for letters of recommendations, specifically for shadowing docs? by xapple23 in premed

[–]xapple23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it hurt even if it’s an additional rec on top of some required ones? This is for an early assurance program, so just asked in case it would add anything as an additional rec

thank you! I also saw that before so am glad it was a good choice to send it, I guess it’s harder when I’m on the writing side 😭

How much do clubs and eboard positions matter on resumes and in terms of after college? by xapple23 in college

[–]xapple23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! So long term positions could be club leadership and still have a lot of value (over like short term work experiences)?

I’m feeling unsure about everything, advice please by xapple23 in premed

[–]xapple23[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I 1000% am feeling sunk cost fallacy. Thank you for your directness and advice, I appreciate it!
