I'm getting into trouble in work because I make occasional typoes in work that goes to clients. I read and reread the work several times, but often miss 1 or 2 things. I've done a search for prooreading tips and I'm wondering if the Yahoo Community might have some solid prooreading tips that can help me avoid such mistakes in the future. Thanks in advance.

I have a 2.79 and have 2 more full time semesters left at my community college before I transfer to a 4 year college. If I got all A's, or even A's and a couple B's, how long should it take me to bring up my GPA high enough to get into law school? If I can even get it that high again. Thank you for your help.
