My niece will know kids at the school from elementary school but the middle school is almost 3 times larger.

Reading to prepare for SAT?

2010-07-16T19:34:00.019-07:00

Everyone always says to read books to prepare for the reading section of the SAT. Not like teenage vampire love stories obviously. What types of books should I read to prepare?
Read books that have many themes (especially classics) because the SAT Writing section asks you to write on a particular theme. Also, there are many words in those books that are tested on the SAT Reading section.

This is my list:

-Into the Wild

-The Great Gatsby

-In Cold Blood

-1984

-Pride and Prejudice

-Jane Eyre

-Sense and Sensibility

-The Scarlet Letter

-Outliers (very easy to read, but it

School supplies question!?

Get some basic supplies that most anybody needs: pencils, pens, folders and notebooks/binders and loose-leaf paper, highliters, spare lead if you use a mechanical pencil,etc. Most of the time your teachers will give you a list of supplies needed at the start of the year, but bring a few things like a pencil and a few pieces of paper for the first few days if you can

I hate my siblings, my little sister drives me up the wall and looking at her makes me not be able to see i hate her so much, im already accepted to the school and im living in the dorms 15 minutes from home. The thing is they want me to babysit the demonic ******* kids without pay and I refuse to do it, but im scared they will refuse to let me go. Can they legally do that if they are not providing any financial assistance and im using loans to get through college? Because until I get a job if they can deny my entry or continuation of higher ed ill be stuck babysitting those evil children and it will be bad for them and my studies.

Whats the diffrence between a novel and a book?

2010-07-06T17:49:00.027-07:00

Lol, This seems like a VERY dumb question and very random .. but im just wondering. i dont think theres that much of a diffrence .. whats your opinion?
the big difference is the length ... most books are less than 300 pages and most novels are 400 pages or more longer
a novel sounds more serious. books are fun.
a novel has chapters!!!! duhhh!!!!!!!!
Novels are books.
A novel is always ficticious, not real. A book can be on any topic and might be based on truth, non fiction.
A novel is a fictitious story in a book.

A book is a printed (or written) work consisting of pages fixed together, and has a cover of some sort.

A dictionary is a book, an autobiography is a book, a cookery book is a book, but none of them is a novel

A novel is a fictional manuscript whose pages when printed and bound inside a cover becomes a book.

A book consists of printed sheets that can be made of almost any material (paper, parchment, fiberboard etc.) that is fastened/bound together on one side and usually protected by some type of covering.

A novel is a book-length work of fiction. Just being fictional and bound isn

It would seem to mean that the person is uncertain or unsure of what they will do in a certain situation.
they have been told way too many times that they are incorrect over different aspects that they have tried to answer over the years and it has cut down on their confidence in their self.

Which is more correct to say when describing the colour: Gray or Grey?

2010-07-06T17:48:00.005-07:00

I always see people use variations of this spelling, and I want to know what is more correct. Or is it an American thing to spell it differently from the English way? I personally spell it however I feel like it at the time.
Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray If you look in the pocket Oxford Dictionary,(the only one I have), and go to Gray it tells you to go to Grey.
I have all ways spelled it gray.

Can a high school drop out attend college?

2010-07-06T17:48:00.004-07:00

I dropped out of high school when I was 15, I am now 17. All of my friends graduated high school last month in June. I highly regret dropping out, because now I really want to attend college to study Biology, Astronomy, Physics and some Math courses.

Any advice?

Getting a GED is very obvious at this point.

If I happened to get my GED, then what is the process of applying to college like?
You will most likely need a GED and have to go to community college and take a lot of precollege courses there too. Which sucks because they don

Kaufman Speech Praxis/Speech Apraxia?

2010-07-06T17:48:00.002-07:00

My son is 2 years old and has been diagnosed with Apraxia of Speech. I had heard about the Kaufman Speech Praxis Treatment Kit 1 - Basic Level and I bought one off eBay for a really reasonable price. Does any parent or speech pathologist know how to use this? It came with a manual, but I don

Is this a good home work plan below this is at a community college?

2010-07-06T17:48:00.001-07:00

Ok, I have 18 assignments to complete next week (9 due by July 12, 2010, and 9 due by July 16, 2010).

Ok, I will be completely school work that due by Friday, July 09, 2010, by Thursday, July 08, 2010, than I will be completing 3 assignments on Friday, 3 assignments on Sunday, and 3 assignments on Monday, July 12, 2010.

I will than complete 3 assignments on Tuesday, July 13, 2010, 3 assignments on Wednesday, July 14, 2010, and 3 assignments including a practice test and an exam on Thursday, July 15, 2010, so is this a good plan.

The professor just gave these assignments today.
JEEEEZZZZ. Thats a whole lot of assignments due.

I hope they are relatively easy, because i personally take usually 4 to 6 hours to do most of my assignments and this would take all day for you.

If you are going to a brick and morter campus, more than likely you have run into a professor that is used to teaching on the internet. Online profs give tons more work and i think it is retarded. I personally would drop this class and talk to the dean not of the department, but the dean of students to give me my money back. (they owe you this is ridiculous, honestly 18 assignments in a week?) In the 163 hours that i have taken at college i have never had anything close to this amount of work.

Paying off college debt of 30,000?

2009-04-01T21:56:00.002-07:00

If I took out 30,000 in college loan for the next 3 years of my college years left, how long would it take me to pay it all back? Is 30,000 alot?

If you have 30k of debt you can extend the loan over 20 years instead of the normal 10 years. You can also do graduated payments where you start off low, then the payment ramps up over the years -- the idea being that you will rise up and get a better paying position over time, so the larger payment 10 years ahead of you wont be a burden. 30k for an undergrad degree is on the high side but not too outrageous (especially if a big chunk of that is living expenses). The average new car today is well over 20k, for comparison.

Wow...That is quite a bit. Yes an No. It depends on if you will have an above average salary job. What is your major? $15,000 is considered a lot so that's just an idea of how much money that is to be responsible for owing. You better start making monthly payments now cause it will take a while.

School Transcript, do we have to transfer all credits to new school?

2009-04-01T21:56:00.001-07:00

In undergrad i went to 4 different schools, but when i finally transferred to my last school (the one i will graduate from) I only transferred 2 school transcripts and not the third, the one I left out I had failed the classes and withdrew the last semester. Am i required to transfer all transcripts, and if so what will happen if my current school finds out??

FYI: this really only applies if you go to a 4 year institution, or a college with selective admissions. If you go to a two year you do not have to report your transcripts if they don't apply to your degree but otherwise you will get in trouble at a 4 year. it is witholding information which when you filed your application you stated you would not do, and the applications almost always say list ALL schools attended. This could get you in a lot of big trouble if you don't go in and talk to an admissions councelor, before this costs you a lof of time and money. This is grounds for removal, but I doubt it would happen (especially if it was a while ago and you are doing fine in your current institution). Most likely they will just say to send it in, and they will look it over and tell you that you might have to retake the class, or simply let it go. BUT if they find out without you, it'll probably be a lot worse. Also a tip- simply write a long letter to your admissions councelor explaining the situation, just state that the first school slipped your mind because it was so long ago and you spent a short amount of time there. Also, mention how you turned your academic career towards the better and explain why you withdrew or failed those classes. Honestly though its best to just talk to your councelor because technically this is grounds for repulsion of admission.

no. only send the transcripts from the schools of which you have taken classes that apply to your degree. if you have no classes that you need from the school that you failed in then dont bother sending those transcripts.

This is not your issue. The issue is: What will they TAKE?????

Am I going to be able to move on and continue my education after here?

2009-04-01T21:56:00.000-07:00

Alright, I'll try to make this as brief as possible.

I go to a small community college. This is my fourth semester there and in all honesty, I have been doing terrible which I feel is unacceptable in a community college if I want to succeed anywhere else.

So far, I have 6 W's and my GPA is around 2.6-2.9. I think I didn't actually learn to study until I got here. The whole experience so far has just been kind of stressful and I'm feeling like giving up.

I really only want to transfer a certain school, which is a selective school, so I'm thinking that I won't get accepted there with all my W's even if I pull my GPA up. Is it possible that I can do better and move on from here, or should I just consider settling for a two year degree?

Finish what you started---get the 2-year degree. Then think about getting a job for a year or two while you decide what you want to do with the rest of your life. That would be a good time to apply to a university if you want that BA degree.

What to do/where to go for college?

2009-04-01T21:55:00.008-07:00

Hi. I want to study Forensic Science, but I also want to study Hindi. I'm really confused about which college to go to. I know Hindi as a minor is not really effective so I want to double major. I might also want to minor in French/Spanish or both if possible. What colleges are best for me to apply to and that would let me learn what I want to?

If I were you I would go ahead and do the double major and also take French since Spanish is easier and you can learn it at a later time. remember the brain gets lets susceptible to learning new material at an older age.

Game programming and game animating classes? and ACT or SAT?

How hard is to learn Hindi in college?

2009-04-01T21:55:00.006-07:00

Okay. This is for people who studied Hindi in college? how hard was it for you to learn it?

Not hard. I am a nativespeak.er

Well, I didn't pick hindi as a subject but yes did attend a few lectures bcoz there was this sweet girl who had hindi as her subject....I felt it was not tough but again it depends on your language skills. Consult a professor from your college.

I did not find it hard at all. OK am still at the elementary stage but some time back I did not even know the hindi alphabets. I managed to read a children story book. Not bad for a novice like me.

Well i learn in my primary school and till now its in my memory. I think its not hard in collage.

What are all of the steps I have to take to become an equine veterinarian?

2009-04-01T21:55:00.005-07:00

how many years in college would this take? What could I do to get better prepared?

I actually helped my younger sister look into this.

You will have 4 years of undergrad and around 4 years of Graduate work and then another 4 in some sort of residency. (So about 11-12 years in all)

Where you go to undergrad doesn't matter as much, but going some where that they have a preVeterinarian program and Vet school will increase your chances greatly.

You should look at places like: University of Wisconsin-Madison, Iowa State University, University of Tennessee-Knoxville, Auburn University, and Ohio State University.

In college you should take advantage of all the internships and extracurriculars you can while studying hard to be the top of your class.

Becoming a Vet is not easy and it is a very competitive field, but because you are planning ahead puts you on the right track. Keep working at it and I wish you all the luck!

Four years of college in a pre-med program, then you have to apply to veterinary school. You might also look into AG and tech schools (agriculture and technology), two year programs in animal husbandry. If you are still in high school, all you have to do is just get really good grades in your courses, and find out what schools in your area offer pre-med

Boston University students, what do you like about it, and what are some of the great things, and the not?

2009-04-01T21:55:00.004-07:00

I've been admitted to the class of 2013 at COM, and I plan on visiting the school over spring break. I just want to know some details to better help me in my decision. Thanks!

P.S. IF YOU'RE A BU STUDENT CAN YOU ALSO LIST THE INTERNSHIPS OR JOBS YOU HAVE GOTTEN? ARE THEY NOT AS GOOD AS THE ONES OFFERED IN THE CITY OF NY? (I haven't heard of anyone getting internships at Seventeen Magazine, Teen Vogue, etc.)

BU is a great school and I love it here. Our campus is something you have to get used to, it's not your typical grassy open campus, but I personally really like how it's downtown and so close to everything. The T is right outside your dorm and runs down the length of the campus, so you never have to walk far to get on the T. I've had a lot of really great, really funny, compelling professors and enjoyable classes. After my tiny high school, I love how big and diverse the student population is. I've made so many great friends. I think it's a lot of fun here. Boston is a great city to go to school in. There's always a lot going on and there's a lot of spirit and a lot of pride. Hockey games are so much fun. The biggest con would be that the dorms kind of suck. There isn't really a dorm that's great. The really nice ones are far away from classes. The closer ones are huge and no air conditioning. I'm not a COM student, but COM definitely is the coolest building on campus.

Who reads the essays when you apply to a university?

2009-04-01T21:55:00.003-07:00

When you do an essay for your university applicationho reads it? The university staff you chose?

if i send the same essay(because it was the same topic) to two diferent universities..is that wrong? What you do recommend?

Any passed experienced???

Thanks

<If you are considering writing the essay to a target audience, don't. There is no way you can predict who (or how many) will read it. It the topic permits, using the same essay for multiple schools is not only not wrong, it is common sense.

Recommendation. Don't be as lazy on the essay as you were with this posting. Spelling, punctuation and grammar count. If it comes up in the essay, it is "past" experience, not "passed". Sentences begin with caps, and "I" is a formal noun. "...." is not a substitute for a comma. "The university staff you chose?" is an incomplete sentence and the word is "choose", not "chose". It's "different" not "diferent".

Yeah, I know - picky, picky, picky. However, lazy habits in writing carry over and become habit. If I were screening an admissions essay and found this many mistakes in the first paragraph or two, I would reject it out of hand and not bother reading past the first paragraph or two.

They have admissions counselors who read the essays. You can't choose who reads it. Sending the same essay isn't wrong if you wrote it. The Common Application is practically made for that. I've sent the same essay to about 9 schools it's not a problem whatsoever, as long as the essay isn't specifically focused on a particular school (you wouldn't want to mention the name of the wrong school).

What are different college classes that you can take in Science?

2009-04-01T21:55:00.002-07:00

I know that college classes are different that just the basic ones that you take in high school. In college what would "science" be called? What are some science classes that focus on mainly different sicknesses and diseases? Like how they spread and stuff. Also what is a science class you can take on the environment?

If you don't really know that's fine just tell me science classes that sound really impressive.

Also if you have a master degree in science, what is that called? Because you wouldn't say that you have a masters degree in science would you?

Basically, physical and biological sciences are the two main categories. However, they subdivide and merge into many different areas. The most popular biological major is biology. Biology is a generalist approach to biological science education. You take fundamental courses that educate you on all biological science topics. Under physical science, the most popular are chemistry and physics. But like I said, there's many other subject areas too numerous to mention.

Environment is ecology, which falls under biological science.

Should i get a degree in sociology or public administration?

2009-04-01T21:55:00.001-07:00

i plan on becoming a cop one day but i'm not sure what my degree should be in. which one of these two would involve less reading(reading and math are my weaknesses)? which one is considered more difficult(i plan on going to cal state fullerton)? thanks to all who answered.

go with what ever you feel comfortable with... when you start college, try taking classes out of both majors and see which one you like better..... or you could major in one and minor in the other that way you get experience in both.

From my experience:

Do not go the easy way out. Maybe you won't end up being a policeman. Stuff happens. Will you be stuck with a degree you can't use to find a job?

You say reading and math are difficult for you. That's pretty much the basis of all academic education in America.

Physical Science: Language, Math

Computers: Math

Politics: Language

Nursing: Language, Math

Law: Language

Accounting: Math

Business:

Well, maybe not everything requires knowledge. The point is if you want a useless degree that won't help you, take stuff like sociology or public administration. There's still a lot of reading involved though. But if you want something to fall back on pick something that you know you'll struggle with more but the reward is better.

Why don't you major in criminal justice? I know that's the necessary degree in order to be a police officer. Don't just do something to get a degree, study what you are interested in and what's going to prepare you for your job.

Both involve a lot of reading. I would think that sociology would be more applicable to being a cop.
