"I worked in a psychology lab studying driving behavior and injury prevention. I conducted an independent research project and presented it at a conference. I also had the opportunity to attend graduate school seminars, as well as mentoring high school students at a summer research workshop. I worked from 8-3, but each day was different. Some days I assisted in running participants, other days I would just stay at my desk working on my project. A couple days a week the other interns and I would go to seminars to prepare us for graduate school."
