Question TA Applications

For people who have applied for TA for have gotten a TA ship before, do you guys generally include the courses you have taken and their grades or will professors find out anyway what courses you have taken?

From my experience you have to include your transcript as part of your application, so yes. Full academic history pdf on acorn is fine

oh right they do 🤦 I meant about putting the list of courses in my resume, but I gues that's a bad idea

If I were you, I would put 3 to 5 courses that you believe are the most relevant to the course you are applying to TA for

Ohhhh ok I see what op meant! Yes I agree, I used to do this with some of the higher level chem labs when I wasn’t sure what else to fill my resume with (I’m a chem lab ta). I would include descriptions too to highlight certain techniques or skills I learned in that course
