how early fo you recommend to get into research. In my school research positions are fairly easy to get into but im just a first-year so I don't quite feel prepared yet
I’d totally recommend getting into research as soon as possible! Even as a freshman you’ll learn a whole ton in lab and they will teach you what you need to know! (As long as your research is with a professor)
There is always grad school if you want to go into research but outside of that there are plenty of STEM positions that aren’t necessarily titled “chemist”. I actually have a video titled “Chemistry Major | What can you do with it” that covers this if you want to check it out!
hi zahl i would like to ask when is the best time to start trying to do undergraduate research ? like i mean at what year second third etc ? just concerned cause im pretty sure i wouldnt know enough stuff at the first year ^^'
You can totally start research in your first year! I am actually just about to release a video about this but professors generally like having people who can stay in their lab and learn the ins and outs over years. Freshman will have a whole 4 years to learn in their lab which is better than seniors who are just about to graduate.
@@zahlazizi thanks for you're answer i really appreciate it'll help me a lot! but is it like i choose one research lab with a professor and if i was able to get in stay there the whole 4 years or am i able to choose something different like a lab or a professor with a different research topic ?
You can totally hop around labs if you find a lab more suited to your interests! Especially if you start early you could be in one lab for a year or two and switch to another later on. Usually people stay longer cause they may get better chances at publishing a co authored paper
Hi Zahi , I really apreciate you doing these incredible videos about my favourite Major actually now I have graduated from High school in 2021 and I will be a senior in chemistry major So I hope you keep going and not to stop wish you a good life ,bye 😎
Bro I love your content so much!!

Thank you for this. I’m starting chemistry (in the UK though) but I’m worried about job prospects after the degree. Any job ideas?

Hello Zahl! I would like to ask if what are the books that are best as the foundation on cumulative knowledge in Chemistry?
openstax has 2 general chemistry books for free! For organic chem I really like "Organic chemistry as a second language"
Hello! Give us some tips on how to pass or even top the Chemist Licensure Exam, please.
Cute.
