What did you do in undergrad to set you up for success in your career?

For my undergraduate degree, the important thing is showing up, going to classes, doing the assigned work, and studying. You want to knock it out of the park.

Did I do that every time? No, I did not. Looking back, I wished I would have really prioritized that.

I know the time I had was a gift. It is a gift to yourself. Ensure you use your time wisely.
