she persisted

#221 In this week’s episode, we are sharing part two of our tips for being a psychology major! I am once again joined by my friend (and fellow psych major at UPenn!) to discuss even more things you absolutely need to know about majoring in psychology in college. We share more of our expert advice on topics including:

+ how important your grades really are

+ what extracurricular activities we’d recommend

+ greek life, making friends, & FOMO

+ getting funding & grants for psych research

+ writing your senior thesis

+ having your research published as an undergrad

+ working on posters & papers

+ why you should attend psych conferences

+ networking as a psych major

+ how to make your CV stand out

+ applying for graduate schools for psychology

+ what we were glad we did as psych majors…

+ …& what we wish we did differently
