[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Well, she is double majoring in stem/stem at a school highly ranked for STEM[/b]. Great GPA, great internship at a science based software company and tons of undergraduate research in both majors. If there is a checklist in college on how to prep for the future, then she is ticking them off at a steady pace. The thing that surprised me is that she has always been quiet and introverted. Now, she's super aggressive with what she wants. She literally told her mentor that it would be in their best interest to pick her for research and that they would keep her for two and a half years. She is producing work for this mentor at an undergrad level that my husband didn't achieve until he was working on his doctorate. My DD attributes this directly to her experience in HS. Her classmates were super competitive (always derided here at DCUM). She had her eyes opened to what could be accomplished if you set your mind to succeed and had the resources at your disposal. [/quote] Most STEM jobs go to h1b's or offshore. She should choose her career very carefully. [/quote]
