Education & Reference - 8 March 2007

Has anyone else spotted a pattern that is driving me mad? Most people ask nicely, but for some reason all maths students just put the question - it comes over very arrogant,
Example tonight:-
"simplify 2(a - 4b) + 4(6b - 3a)?"

And that was it - no "please", or "Can you help with my homework". It happens every night.

If we all stopped answerring them, perhaps they would try more politely.

Yes, I know I am a Victor Meldrew, but I do like to give and receive respect.

I have decided that I want to teach at the community college or university level and am prepared to go back to school for an advanced degree but I have not yet decided on which field I will pursue.

My biggest concern is with job availability and job security once I invest the time and money for an advanced degree. I'm wondering which fields/subjects have the highest demand for professors/instructors? Which areas would offer the best job security?

It's kinda annoying that people are asking for the answers for their homework and it's kinda cheating. People who need homework help can go to tutor.com, it's live and free! Tell me whatcha think about it when u try it.

I'll be graduating high school this June and am choosing nursing as my career choice for the future. My question is this: Should I go to the community college for two years and then transfer to a universiy (I want my bachelor's degree) or should I just go to a university for the full four years? I'm paying for college without the help of my parents so the community college would obviously be cheaper, but would it be beneficial? Is a community college's nursing program the same as a university's program? How would it work if I transferred? I'm so confused right now. Any information or advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I got a perfect on the verbal section on the SATs. Do you think that that is a rare thing or not something to be that proud of?

If I have a low Gpa (3.4) and medium sat score (1350/1600) with a perfect verbal score- and I apply as an English major- there will even be a remote chance of getting into JHU?
(This reasoning comes from the fact that most people applying to JHU want to be premeds.)
