Year and program: Second-year, Psychology
Where is home for you? Lima, Perú
What three adjectives best describe you?
Organized, hardworking, and outgoing.
What extracurricular activities have you been involved with (UBC related or not)?
Mental Health Awareness Club First Year Committee, APAC.
What is your best study strategy/tip?
Review study materials progressively! Something that helped me a lot was studying little by little. For instance, after each lecture, I would review my notes from the lecture, or every weekend I would review my notes from the past week. This way, when a test comes up you will already be familiar with the content, the academic load will become lighter, and you can say bye to some stress!
If you could travel back in time to your first year at UBC, what is one thing you would do differently?
I would definitely seek more opportunities, such as joining more clubs, volunteering, and exploring the city, instead of solely focusing on school. In other words, have more fun!
