I've checked this forum and most people say that undergrad research is the most importnat factor for grad school. But what's more important quality or quantity?
Also, people say that you can get started any time. I'm going to be transferring to a university this fall, as junior, and my advisor said that its best not to start research until next spring. Is that good advice? Isn't that REALLY late to do research? I've heard plenty of freshmen and sophmore are able to research, so i'll be WAY behind. After all, I don't know ANY of my new professors yet. She also said that GPA, NOT research, is more importnat for grad school admissions? What?
