just got TA position for this fall!

I suppose this would be great to bring up in the interview. Too little too late for any applications. For those of you doing this also, are you going to ask for Thurs and Fri off for interviews? Wondering how I will get away with this.

What class?

Not one school had mentioned my 5 semesters of Microbio TA'ing at interviews.

chemistry

That sucks. If they ask me how I have demonstrated leadership, blah blah, I can bring it up.

I would love to be a TA, it sounds fun. But how do you go about being one if you're an undergrad? Because my school, UC Davis, seems like all TA's are grad students.

Just talk to the prof in charge of the class you want to TA. That is all I had to do (for anatomy/physiology lab). Profs like people who actually find their class interesting enough to want to TA. It at least works that way at my school.
