First off I'm not ADD (or ADHD). I just can't get into studying or doing homework. I tried all the techniques people suggest... going to the library, finding a quiet place, study groups, etc. Every time I try, I either get distracted, daydream, or get sidetracked with something else. any suggestions?

I love math but probability is not my favorite..... I just never understood it!!

Two standard unbiased dice are thrown.
a) Find the probability that the sum of the scores is 9.
b) " " " " " the scores differ by 1.
c) " " ' " ' the sum of the scores is 9 or that the scores differ by 1.

I don't understand what unbiased means..? Or how to get the answers..!

My daughter was told that her science fair project is due on Friday. She got her science board on Monday from the teacher. Why don't some teachers tell students in a more timely manner? I've seen all the papers she has on the science fair and there are no due dates. I make sure I know what she is doing in school every day and what is due. (Just like real science at times I guess.) (By the way my kid is a nerdy honors--Who's Who in middle school type kid). Looks like she will be "fudging" data this year!!

My semester is finished on Dec. 15 (yay!). However, for the first time in my life, I'm looking at failing at least one class. I had some health issues and then my grandpa died this semester which has made it a very trying time. The class is my statistics class, and it's a GE. I have another test on Thursday that I know nothing about what we are going to be tested on. I already have a 65% in there. If I fail, obviously the grade goes lower. What I need help with--is do I just throw in the towel? I've never been a quitter, but I don't know what I can do to raise this grade in 2 weeks.

Both answers have to have the word water. These questions come from the game BuzzWord...Also the spelling of Cistain is probably wrong.

My daughter starts all these really interesting real world assignments like learning the stock market or how the human body functions--complete with a 3-D model to build or reading unabridged great literature in elementary school and the teachers never follow through. Never following through--that is the only thing they are teaching her by doing this.

Isn't high school suppose to be the real deal? Where you're suppose to be more organized, mature, cleaner, and responsible?

And study our butts off? To prepare for college and S.A.T.'S?

Here's the deal, I am from Fairbanks, Alaska and am currently a sophomore at Colorado State Univerisit. I am having a really difficult time deciding if I want to stay here or transfer back home. I should say that I guess I came here for the vet school, and because as a senior in high school I thought I wanted to go out of state for the "full college experience." But, when I look back, I can't think of a "real" reason I decided to come here, except that that's what everyone expected of me and I didn't have any other plans, so why not?
But now I'm really regretting it. Last year wasn't so bad, but this year I have been miserable here the ENTIRE time. I miss my family back in AK so much it's becoming a depression, and I miss my friends who all stayed at home to attend college in Fairbanks. I don't have many friends here, and my roommate is leaving CSU in January. I also feel like the academics are not suiting me here- the class sizes are WAY too huge and I hate all the science programs.

Has anyone been enrolled in/currently enrolled in the Purdue University Distance Learning Vet Tech program? If so, have you gotten financial aid? What was your experience? Were the classes easy to keep up with? If you graduated, did you find a good job? Any other info would be appreicated also.
