    Honestly, I am very entertained by your videos but it's extra nice to also learn through your experiences. Thank you for the last part about learning to accept uncertainty! As a bioengineering graduate now applying to master's programs, I'm feelin' it haha

    This is super cool. Before I switched from Business to Biology I always knew I liked NASA and learning about space. Its dope you got to intern there. I am considering going to Berkeley too because I live in The Bay, but considering I am coming from a community college where I did not take my classes seriously when I was younger, I don't think my previous grades will allow that. How did you find mentors? Were they just like teachers you had that you would ask advice frequently? I am super into bio and chem, but don't have any friends who are into that kind of stuff or mentors that can guide me. Any advice?

    • @MeganAmber
      @MeganAmber  4 года назад +2

      yep I owe a lot to my mentors who taught me so much! most of my mentors are from research/internships. teachers and older peers would also make great mentors

      Megan Amber so i’m just gonna throw out a list lol i’m so sorry if it’s too many 😖
      1. i’m a little confused with the letter of rec. will the person i’m requesting a LOR have access to upload it through an email sent to them or how will that work?
      2. although it said it’s okay if i had no prior experience, will i still have a good chance at getting an offer? also if i go to community college?
      3. since the application is viewed worldwide with different agencies, is the location depending where i get accepted or do i get to choose?
      4. when listing experiences, will it be okay if i do bullet points or will it be better to do sentences?
      5. since resume submission is optional, would it be a good idea to still submit one?
      Thank you so much!!! 😊

    • @MeganAmber
      @MeganAmber  4 года назад

      sorry for the late reply!!
      1. the LOR process may be a little different than when I applied. but through the nasa portal I listed the LOR provider and they should receive an email on how to directly upload the LOR to the portal (at least that's how I remember)
      2. it's ok if you don't have prior experience, just be sure to show your passion of that field and what you want to do once you get there
      3. I think it's depending on where you get accepted
      4. mm iirc I did sentences
      5. yes, I'd submit one
