Summer before grad school
So for those of you who plan to start grad school this fall, what do you plan to do from now until the Fall semester starts? I'm already done with school, so I was thinking of travelling or trying to get an industrial internship. I'm currrently just improving my programming skills and self studying Jackson

I'm going to Paris for whats supposed to be a research internship, but I plan to have a good time in France

Re: Summer before grad school
um... it was through an exchange program with my institute. I applied for it back in december though... I doubt there's anything open now

Why aren't you begging profs at your soon-to-be grad school (assuming you decided to go) for research appointments?creepypasta13 wrote:what? how were you able to get that position? Are there any similar positions like that still available?

Wow. How does one "self-study" Jackson? Are there solutions manuals available?

Re: Summer before grad school
I'll be studying for Part I of the prelim at my school, and finishing research at my undergrad school. Anyone else going to MIT? Maybe we can get together in August and form a study group.
