Our school district is considering dropping our accelerated program. The district wants to focus on raising math scores for students who do not meet the NCLB standards. What will this do to the accelerated student who will not be receiving proper instruction?

University of Illinois at Springfield has a requirements of three years of college preparatory mathematics, selected from Algebra, geometry, advanced Algebra, pre-calculus, trigonometry and calculus.

I passed the first semester of Algebra but failed the second, then I took Algebra A and Algebra B which is basically Algebra over two years. Now I'm in Geometry.

When I graduate, I guess i will have 2.5 years of math, but if I may say so myself, i'm smart. I will have college credit from A.P. U.S. History, English, Psychology and Western Civil when I graduate.

Should I apply? Can they accept me on a contingency basis?

I had lunch with Murdoch the day after the story appeared. We met outside his office, on the eighth floor of the News Corp. building, and rode the elevator down to an executive dining room on the third floor. The elevator car didn’t have call buttons; you had to press the floor’s number on a panel in the hallway before you got in.

i'm currently going to a community college and i'm going to apply to transfer next fall. i have a 3.6 gpa, but i'm active in my college. i'm in circle k international which is a community service based club and i do at least 25 hours of community service per month. i'm also the vice president for this year. even though ive only been in the club for little over a year i recieved various awards. i'm also a part of the honors transfer program which i take honors courses and it details that in my transcript. what's bothering me though is if its better to have a great gpa like 3.8+ or an good gpa like 3.4-3.7 with a lot of extra-curricular activities? im afriad that a gpa like 3.4-3.6 wont get me to my dream college ucla, but i know that extra curricular it adds a competitive edge. i want to run for president for the next term, but its a lot of work and it might keep my gpa around 3.5/3.6. i know if all i did was study and hw i can easily get over 3.8. what should i do??

When do people decide that there is no point of moving any further, or trying any further? When do people make the decion that they had reached the end of whatever journey they were going through (e.g. marriage, job, life, giving up on a person, giving up on a beleif, migration, quiting smoking, quiting a strong habit). What are the elements responsible for making that final decision and sticking by it?

Hey, if the reason not to stay on Daylight Savings Time year round is kids going to school in the dark, why don't we have them goto school later?? I love DST, but hate standard time and changing the time 2x a year. Also, please feel free to give your opinions on DST.

Since September 11th, Murdoch’s media outlets have sometimes seemed like propaganda arms of the Bush Administration, skewering anybody who dares to question the President’s war on terror.
