From believing that academia was my only route as a physics major to pursuing only research-based internships, I've made enough mistakes as a stem major to last a lifetime. In this video, I want to give you all the rundown on EVERY massive, career-impeding mistake I made as a stem major at UChicago so that you can learn from my mistakes and can explore all of your options EARLY in your career.
Hopefully, these aren't ~actually~ mistakes every STEM major makes, but mistakes I made that you all don't have to make! Don't forget to let me know down in the comments if there are any videos you'd like to see from me. I would love to help in any way I can!
