Tips and Advice from Jessica
What Three Adjectives Best Describe You?
Outgoing, enthusiastic, organized
Where is your favourite place to study and why?
Woodward Library or the Biology building!
What is one activity you do to maintain personal wellness?
Playing video games and spending quality time with my friends :)
What is your best study strategy/technique?
My favourite study strategy is to go over lecture slides with my friends and fill in any knowledge gaps any of us may have had! It is a good way to employ different strategies like teaching others, reading and reviewing content, as well as a great way to consolidate the information. I am also a big fan of Anki for courses that are more memorization based (not sponsored :'().
If you could travel back in time to your first year at UBC, what is one thing you would do differently?
First. I would make sure COVID-19 did not happen. And then I would definitely have looked out for more opportunities to be involved on campus! I wasn't part of any clubs or organizations in first year and I think I really missed out.
