Education & Reference - 8 February 2007

Anyone attended this school before? I was thinking about majoring in communications there. They say that students can taske two classes at a time, and that the terms are 8 weeks long. I was wondering how intensive the classes are, and if it works out okay for someone working full-time?

Thanks

Long story short, I got into an altercation on the bus this morning and now have a 3 day suspension. What I want to know, is how does this affect my chances of getting into a good college? (I'm in Cali and am hoping to enter Stanford or U.C. Berkeley.)

I'm a sophomore and have an unweighted 4.00 GPA. I've never even gotten a detention before. I get on excellently with all my teachers, write a column for a local newspaper, am the assistant editor at an area youth art and literary magazine (and the only actual "youth" on staff), am a student advisor to the superintendent, have started volunteering at the Boys and Girls Club, am being featured in the sophomore section of the yearbook, and just this weekend I scored the second highest score in the county at the Academic Decathlon competition- the highest score in the school history- and took home 7 medals

But now there's this suspension. How badly is this gonna hurt? Can I turn it around by making it a learning experience?

I will be an incoming freshman at a University of California campus and plan on majoring in biology or marine biology. I was wondering what jobs will be in demand in the future? I am open to attending grad, med, or dental school, but my dream job would be to incorporate research and travel. I was thinking along the lines of National Geographic, Discovery Channel, or PBS, but only found jobs relating to sales, journalism, or photography. Does my dream job even exist?

My counselor told me to search assist.org for CSU's and UC's that offer pre-pharmacy majors, but I can't find anything (no results). Does anyone know about CSU's and UC's that offer a pre-pharmacy major? I would really appreciate it.

I work at a preschool/afterschool program for troubled kids and we want to have a dentist come in and make a presentation about dental health. I'm not sure what my first step is. I've looked at the ADA website and my local dental society website, but didn't find anything. Should I just ask my dentist to do it? Or is there some other way?

I know this sounds like a something a slacker would do or someone lazy, but I'm both. Whenever we have a test, I feel no motivation to study for it at all. Even the hour before I don't see the point. Usually I have to force myself to buckle down and concentrate and even then I feel bored to tears, quite literally and so discouraged. Any advice to ENCOURAGE study behavior? Please no mean comments.
