Youll like it, but dont justtake my word for ithereswhat past BRSS undergradshave said about theirexperiences! 11. My BRSS experience was beneficialI feltaccomplished and ready to pursue bigger andbetter things. My supervisors were amazing. I trulybelieve undergraduates should go through BRSS inpreparation for pursuing a Masters degree or anysort of supervisory role.-Christopher, pursuing MA in BATS 12. The structured layout of BRSS helped me to write a thesisthat I otherwise would probably still be working on. I guessthe time commitment and the writing assignments weredifficult at times, but having a completed thesis at the endof a year made it all worth it.-Lindsey, pursuing MA in BATSBRSS is a great way to get advising on career and gradschool options. Plus working with the grad students ontheir projects is a lot of fun and you learn ALOT!-Kelsey, pursuing MA in BATS 13. BRSS as an undergrad helps prepare youprofessionally by dealing with deadlines andworking with people in a superior position. Itis a good idea to apply for BRSS, especially ifyou are considering applying to graduateschooland want some extra experience.-Jennifer, pursuing MA in BATS 14. One of the best parts was being able to work closelywith a grad student. The other best part was makinga positive change at WoodsEdge, which I love somuch!BRSS made writing a thesis easy with the weeklywriting assignments. There wasnt room forprocrastination! Being in BRSS looks good on yourresume! I would definitely recommend it toundergrads. -Katie, pursuing MA in BATS 15.
