summer internship vs research assistant: which looks better for grad school?
Just wanted to start a conversation about something that’s been on my mind lately.
After going through all of this I realized that the conventional wisdom is mostly wrong. Not completely wrong but definitely misleading in some important ways. I’ll break it down step by step so you can see what I mean.
I’ve been lurking on this forum for months and finally decided to contribute because I see a lot of misinformation floating around. No shade to anyone but I think we owe it to each other to be accurate about this stuff.
That’s all I’ve got for now but I’ll update this post if anything changes. Stay safe out there everyone.

Totally agree with you on that. I had a professor last semester who didn't even know how to interpret Turnitin reports properly.
The part about accuracy rates really resonated with me. I think that's the most overlooked aspect of this whole debate.

Great contribution to the community. I'll add my own test results in a follow-up post.
Couldn't agree more. This is exactly why these conversations are important.
