Education & Reference - 10 January 2007

My 17-year-old daughter will be applying to colleges next year, and she could not take AP classes because she lived abroad for a semester (on scholarships -- we are not rich), and the school said she could not take AP classes if she was not there the first semester. She has a high GPA, but no AP classes. Now, I'm hearing that colleges only want kids who have AP classes, and are overlooking those who don't. Anyone have any personal or professional information about this? Thanks.

In July 2006 I handed in a RE assesment, in which I tried for the highest level, level 8. I gave up lunches and much time after school to complete. After summer term holiday, I went back to my teacher and asked for it back with the mark. My teacher said she sent it to County Hall to be marked by the RE coordinator as she cannot mark levels that high.
Since then, I still have not received it, now 6 months on.On one occasion,she told me I got a "definitly" got a level 7.
Since then, she kept saying "we havn't received it yet" or "I've asked someone to contact them", all of the time.
Today, I was told I got a level 6 by the head of RE, and to "stop looking into the past and concentrate on Year 11".
I think it was lost, but they won't say it.
I wouldn't want to see it this desperatly if I hadn't put so much time and effort into it.
All I want is it back. What can I do? What are the next steps?
Contact County Hall to see if they received it?
Can someone advise?

I need to draw a man with each part of his body wearing a different outfit to do with a different job.
For example Oh his head he could be wear a firemans hat, could be wearing a police officers top, he could have a kitchen tool in one hand and maybe an artists brush in the other.
I need to create the whole body and am struggling for ideas for the trousers and shoe area. Any ideas would be great. Also if you have any better ideas for the other ones too then that would be fantastic. Cheers

My grandson came to me with an interesting question, which basically the posted question. but it got me to thinking In many black comedians presentations the have names for whites such as, honky's, Crackers etc. and to me disrespect there own people the N word. If a white comedian did this a controversy would be set off. What justifies the double standard. I told my grandson that, it was a matter of respect that we be responsble for ourselves, and respect all races. Then He knocked the wind out of me because the kids at school call him half breed. He is a wonderful American Samoan.

I have paid for 4 classes at The Virtual High School of Excellence and told 'Natalia' that I didn't want anymore money taken out of my account until my daughter finnished these classes-she told me that she was putting a message on the account to this affect; but $680.00 was taken out of my account in December. I called them for the past 2 weeks trying to get this reversed so I don't over-draw my account but I have never received a call back even though I have explained the situation and have left my name and number several times. I have also been hung up on more than once. They have excellent courses but customer service is exceedingly poor. I have tried to try to find out who is in charge but wind up repeating my problem to the same people so that someone else can call me back. Does anyone know how to get ahold of someone who really cares and who can help me without waiting for another call back that will never happen?
