Assessment of BC. SFP Scholars completed survey questions about their Research Boot Camp (BC) experience. The percentage of Scholars selecting each answer is shown on the y-axis. Questions were ranked on a five-point scale, 1 being the most negative and 5 the most positive. A. Scholar responses to the question, “How useful was BC?”, evaluated in the end-of-summer survey (2007–2013). B. Scholar responses to the question, “Was the BC too long, too short, or just the right length?”, evaluated in the new end-of-BC survey (2009–2011). C. Scholar responses to the question, “Did you use the techniques you learned in BC in your research lab?”, implemented 2012–2013. BC = boot camp; SFP = summer focus program.
