I went to this site called, "Sparksnotes", and they had all kinds of study guides and stuff online. I know that they are famous for notes selling in-stores, but are the information online accurate too? I mean it's free, so wouldn't have less effort in it or something, or is it just free, and good to use? I am reading "To Kill a Mocking Bird", and I need summaries, because the book is too long... Please help me, and tell me if "Sparknotes" is accurate!!!

but a student is applying as an adult who has worked full-time since for the past 10-12 years while going to a community college part-time at night, do the 4-year colleges consider your job as an extracurricular?

Someone with a full-time 9-5 job and part-time evening classes can't exactly join the athletic teams or academic organizations and be an active member.

I think the worst I had to read would be a tie between The Sun Also Rises and the Scarlet Letter. The best would definatly be Huckleberry Finn.

Which country on that list is part of what is called "the mediterranean area"?

The possible answers are :
Brazil
Russia
China
Canada
USA
Indonesia
India
Colombia
Congo

Please help me out I'm so confused right now! I looked it up and I still don't know the answer.
b/c it looks like none of those countries actually touch the Mediterranean Sea, so I'm at a total loss...

Anybody has an idea?
