I'm thinking seriously about moving to Boston within the upcoming year. I'm only 18 right now, but as soon as I finish my AA degree out here in California, I want to either attend boston University, Boston Baptist University, or the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology. I plan on becoming a psychiatrist and also getting a degree in biblical counseling while writing novels on the side. Is boston the place for me?? I was thinking of Allston specifically.

Since evolution is only a theory with no proof whatsoever why is it the only acceptable explaination to our origins taught in schools. No wonder the young are aimless. They are taught that they are nothing more than pond scum.

I am currently a graphic designer w/ a BFA under my belt and have been working in the industry for about 4 years. Am already getting bored with it especially working with unappreciative people. Am considering pursuing a degree as a surgical tech, as have always been passionate about medicine. Plus, the money would be better and I would feel more stable in financial side as my field now doesn't pay great. Has anyone jumped careers and felt satisfied with the outcome? I'm 25 so not sure if this feeling is common among those my age. Thanks for all your help!

I am in 10th grade and taken a class that was not required without realizing it(AP computer science 1, JAVA, I already have a technology credit from 9th grade). Now the class is getting harder and making C's. My counselor says I can drop it after 1st semester. My other grades are good, A's. I did not tell the counselor I would be applying at ivy leagues. what impact is it gonna make if I drop the class now? It is gonna show up on the transcript that I have taken the class but dropped in 2nd semester. But I have other required courses to take...PE, Health, speech. I cannot afford to go to summer school, either. My parents are PhD. students...We are on loan. Will ivy leages understand that? Beside I am new to US from south asia. Don't know English fluently...yet I have taken Pre-AP class(English, too).
