What did you do in undergrad to set you up for success in your career?
I think it was really just the lab that I worked at. It is just the kind of historical thing.
But, I really did gain a lot from that experience and gained a lot of connections from other students that were there. Even when I got into medical school, I still knew those folks.
I still actually run into them every now and then at conferences. It was nice also just kind of having other people who were at the same level as me to talk about these situations and have a venting session.
