"It's a great place to work while you are studying in school. It not only gives you the hourly salary, but also a great opportunity to get involved in the real science and experiments. If you got a chance to be a graduate assistant, then do it without any hesitation. It is worth for you to have a try and earn some extra money for living expenses in New York City. Good luck."
