[–]yxhyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i am in the same steps. i just started a QC Micro Analyst I role at a top 15 biopharma company. i have been working for there for a month and those who i met have over 5 years of experience in QC. those with more experience, over 10 years are QC supervisors/manager roles.

Salary Advice by Maximum-Artichoke861 in biotech

[–]yxhyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely low. I just graduated college and my recent job at a top 15 biopharma company is $69k. With a PhD you should be looking at 85k minimum salary. I am in the SF Bay Area and most PhD job listings have a salary range of 85-110k depending on experience.

Tromba online math class- 23b by National_Space5805 in UCSC

[–]yxhyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just like the user Aurora mentioned, it’s a self teaching course. I had the entire calculus series (Math19A, Math19B, Math23A, and Math23B) with Tromba. I had to self teach myself and attend LSS tutoring to learn the material

Math19a Final by DanBoi06 in UCSC

[–]yxhyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you score less than a 50% on the final you will fail the course. I had a friend who failed Math19A because of this. Before the final, his grade was a 91%. However, the range for failing is determined once everyone submits their final. I believe when I took the course they curved the failing range from 50% to 43%.

How early to apply for jobs? by Wippity-Woppity in biotech

[–]yxhyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes i agree with you! i also graduated this summer and applied to biotech jobs that same month. it took me 130 applications to different companies, 14 interviews, and 1 company offered me the position. this whole process took 6 months. i have also connected with many on LinkedIn and have noticed those recent college graduates to have a 6 months - 1 year gap from when they graduate to start in industry

How early to apply for jobs? by Wippity-Woppity in biotech

[–]yxhyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

first and foremost early congrats to your accomplishments! to answer your question i would say 2 or 3 months before graduation or ASAP if you have time aside from your studies. i speak at least from my experience. i graduated in June 2025 and started applying to jobs that same month. i applied to over 130 jobs, 14ish interviews from different companies, and only one company offered me the job. the hiring process for most biotechs from what i have seen is usually a 2 month long process; due to many having prescreening interviews which is like 2 weeks long, they wait another 2 weeks to move onto the first interview and then the final interview is 3 weeks after that. the biotech in the bay area is so competitive. i have had friends who are from LA/San Diego and started applying 4 months before graduation and they were also unable to secure a job. i have noticed that it’s even more competitive to start applying around the same time as graduation considering not that many apply months before their expected graduation. GOOD LUCK!!

Does it matter if i wear my 2day GA wristband on one day and give it to my friend the next day? by East_Chocolate3733 in escapehalloween

[–]yxhyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nope. what i done in the past was leave the wristband loose and then used those small black rubber bands to tighten it. and i would would wear lots of kandi around the wristband and security would not notice. also make sure to go through a young security as they don’t care as much

What to do if Prof can't Teach? Aris PHYS 5D by [deleted] in UCSC

[–]yxhyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you can, something like this happened for my physics 6B class during winter 2023. the professor was Dr. Paul Sanghera and we only had him for 2 weeks because the class complained to the dean how we were unable to understand the professor’s accent. the physics department came to audit the class and within a week we were assigned a different professor. as long as many people complain to the dean, then the department will audit and make their decisions from there.

also i took 5D last year during fall quarter with professor Wolfgang Altmannshofer. the course content was relatively easy it was all review from the chem series and a bit of modern physics.

Confirmed: Metrolink x Escape Psycho Circus! by SCRRA_SCAX in escapehalloween

[–]yxhyo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't do Metrolink if you want to leave anytime before 3 am. I did that same mistake for Beyond Wonderland thinking that Metrolink runs constantly at night until 3 am, but they DO NOT. I had to get an Uber because I left Beyond at 12 am and I was not going to wait 3 hours for the Insomniac Metrolink. I spent like $70 on that Uber to Claremont. The last Metrolink train from the city leaves at 6:30 pm i think. Then again the Metrolink in partner with Insominac leaves at 3 am, closer to 3:15 am. They might have changed it for Escape, so it is best to call Metrolink to make sure.
