I was able to make connections with other undergraduate students majoring in mathematics or computer science who also wanted to attend graduate school in the future.
What I wish was different
Due to the pandemic, my research experience was solely online. Although the experience was rewarding in many ways and I am ultimately grateful, I wish I could have had the experience of working on mathematical research continually in-person.
Advice
I would recommend that anyone who has the opportunity to participate in a Research Experience for Undergraduates to do so, as it was one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever been a part of.

What I liked
I enjoyed how despite it being a job, it felt as if I was working from home. The environment at work was very friendly yet maintained professionalism as did my bosses. I was able to learn a lot of new things and equip my self with new skills while at the same time I got to do my work also.
What I wish was different
I wish had known about the job earlier so I could have done more at the job and worked for longer. Also I wish I had been prepared for how busy it would get once school started.
Advice
Listen to your bosses and take their advice because they usually know best. And take every oppurtunity that’s presented to you.
