1/Got through tutorial early this morning and planned to go home right after to rest since I have a cold. One of my students had questions about grad school and I'm glad she stuck around to ask. Key take always that may be helpful for other undergrads: 2/research experience in undergrad is helpful for getting transferrable skills. If your UG thesis doesn't match your grad work, that's OK. You still learn time management, safety, ethics, how to keep a lab books, communicating data. All very useful
