Hi everyone,

My dream career is being a doctor, but the problem is..I'm afraid I'm not smart enough to be one. I think my GPA is okay (not that high like some ppl, but i think I can improve it) right now, and I know I have to work hard to study for the MCAT...However, I'm still doubting if I can stand the pressure of medicine. I heard that medical school is extremely difficult, and many(?) students drop out.

I volunteer in a hospital, and I know for sure this career is right for me, but my intelligence isn't great like some ppl.
I'm scared that I might waste my energy on this pre-med path then disappoint myself later on.

For this reason, I don't have a lot of motivation to do well in school like I used to..I get lazy very easily, and I procrastinate like crazy these days. .I know I have to study hard to compete with other pre-meds, but I just can't find any motivation anymore..but I really want to be a doctor...

What should I do?

The time-honoured pearls of eastern wisdom tell us that only a students having complete devotion to the teacher can acquire true knowledge; also, true knowledge gives modesty. The evaluation of teachers by the students is an imported practice from the west, that too only in recent times- it is doing more damage to the students than benifitting them in any manner. Do you agree or you don't? Why or why not?

How has your family history, culture, or environment influenced who you are?......................

My family’s history and culture has influenced me in many ways. Part of what makes me who I am today is because of what my family has gone through and the way they strive for me to do my best. .................

The way my family’s history influenced me was how they struggled to make a living being immigrants in the United States. I come from a Haitian family, where in Haiti, going to college isn’t really seen as important or necessary as it is in the United States. Because of that mentality (particularly in my mother’s case), finding a job later in in life was always a struggle. Due to the hardships of finding a job, My mother, sister and I were forced to move multiple times, forcing us to have a very unstable life, which took a huge toll on my younger sister and me. The way my mother had struggled motivated me me to be a stronger person and never to make the same choices as

i have to write a story to go on from:

I sat huddled as far as possible underneath the hedge. The frantic rain attacked my bitterly cold hands. My coat, soaked through, had become a heavy weight and soon I was left shivering. I could see the sun beginning to set and knew soon it would become even colder. Looking across the field I saw silhouettes in the distance. Could it be them? Were they coming back for me? I looked around again but there had vanished. I tired to convince myself that they would return.
As the sun lowered in the sky and the temperature plummeted I became afraid.

Any ideas? (that begining can be changed slightly)

Thank you

Hello I'm going to university next year to hopefully gain a QTS (ba) in primary teaching to work as a teacher in a primary school. I was wondering if anybody knows what other courses or tests I would have to complete to be qualified to work in California (America) as an 'elementry' school teacher as my family are going to be moving over there in the next few years and would be brilliant if i could pursue a teaching job there.
thanks so much.

Once upon a time, the king sent 22 of his countrymen to all different parts of the world. He said " go and soak up all the knowledge". Years later when they returned he said, " take your 22 books of knowledge and condense them into one". When they were finished he said " take the one book and condense it into one page". When they were finished he said, " take the one page and condense it into one word. The next day there were massive fires and the city burnt with all it's knowledge........What was the word ?
