"I've worked in research for BYU for (soon to be) 4 years. My professors have all been great mentors and provided me flexibility in schedule and freedom to solve problems. In my assessment of my ability to improve and move up, while there's ability to improve in undergraduate research, it's a student job that doesn't offer promotions."
