I am a senior in high school who just got into Cornell University early decision. Once, in my sophomore year, I was caught cheating on a chemistry quiz. I received a conduct report and detention for this, and then vowed never to do it again. However, against my better judgment, I recently got caught again cheating on a French test. My teacher was very kind about it (and I'm etermally grateful to her about that), but told me that unfortunately she had to turn my name in because it was school policy. This time, it will be my 2nd conduct report, and I will probably have to serve detention again. I am not worried about my grade because I'm pretty confident that I'll still end up with a B, and I know that I've made an extremely poor decision TWICE in my high school career. This time however, I am afraid that my punishment will be more severe and my actions may make Cornell second-guess their decision. Please tell me if my chances at college are in jeopardy and give me advice on what to do!

Very long story but I have an english tutor who charges 50 dollars for each lesson (doesn't matter if its 1 hour or 1 and 1/2 hour or 2 hrs or whether you're in a group of 2 or 3 people or more) and every time i go to her place I feel like all we're doing is trying to burn time. Most of the lesson time she spends stressing over her life issues such as her house or she is text messaging/calling friends. Should i continue with her? She has very enticing resources written by her past students probably from when she could teach properly though.

I'm an english major.

I'd like to befriend my professors this term so I can get get a job as an RA, get recommendation letters from them eventually, and simply get to know them.

How best do I approach a professor? At exactly what point in the semester is it best to make my first visit? How many visits are too many?

I think it's a little futile to ask only about a specific assignment - I want my professors to know I'm resourceful and can get help on my own. But I often don't know what to talk about with them.

Is it best to behave professionally, as though I'm attending an interview? Or do professors prefer students to be informal?

Also, how much time is appropriate to spend in a professor's office? I've heard of some students spending close to two hours talking to their professors.

How do I approach them about their OWN research? If I researched them ahead of time, is it creepy to let them know that? Finally, what does it take to get hired as an RA or a TA?

Thank you!
