My A&P instructor emailed me and asked me if I wanted a job as his lab assistant for the upcoming semester in A&P II. I'd be setting up the organs and helping the class review. He said he felt my knowledge was " solid", plus he had seen how I reviewed with classmates last year and thought I'd be perfect for the job. I am so flattered! Plus, that would look awesome on a resume or scholarship application, and it would keep my knowledge up since I am not taking classes this semester( looong waiting list). I have to talk to my husband, but I think it will work out with our schedules so hopefully I can do it. How exciting!! :balloons:

Hey that is really cool! After this semester I am hoping to do the same thing. There is a lottery waiting list for nursing school here, so I know what you mean about keeping the info fresh.
Congrats!
Thank you! I am really looking forward to it :)

That is so great. The same thing happened to me over the summer. The instructor approached me and said basically the same thing as yours. That is how I got my present job as a lab tech. in the bio. lab. I love it. I love biology and find that it is nice to keep all the info. fresh in my head. I find that I get a different perspective on the other students. You learn who really cares about what they study, and who is just doing what they can to skim by. I don't mind being around dead animals and organs all that much. I just remind myself that it is prep. for what is to come. I am so glad you had this oppurtunity. I is a good one. Also, I was able to make my own schedule pretty much. Since I have three children and go to school full-time it was a blessing. Good luck!!!
Thank you! I never thought of myself as a teaching-type, but apparently he liked the way I was reviewing with classmates last semester,quizzing them etc..your opportunity sounds amazing! Who knows, maybe I can keep it up while in school, since it is a night class :)
