I'm a Maryland resident, and I'm planning on pursuing my career in the medical field. I got accepted to both University of Maryland and Virginia Tech. They both offer good pre-med program. The question is which one is better than the other? Since i live in MD, the cost of University of Maryland will be lower than Virginia Tech, if i choose to attend University of Maryland. But should i really go to University of Maryland, and save myself some money, or should i go to Virgini Tech? Please give me some information about their campus and the quality of education offered by both schools. Will it really make a huge difference when I'm applying for Medical School? And which one of these two schools will prepare me the best for MCAT? Thanks a lot.

i thought about work, but there are no jobs around, and the only jobs open are not college friendly and conflict with my college schedule.

I'm trying to get into a PhD program next year. What schools other than UCLA and USC offer such programs in the Political Science field? I have looked into Online programs but not sure how one can start and finish an Online PhD without ever being seen in person? Some insight will be appreciated.

Thanks

I am a sixteen year old in grade eleven, and I think that you are supposed to be in school to learn and to get an education. But, how do you deal with people who don't think that way? I have about 5 guys in each class who are always drunk on weekends and they're about as smart as a shoebox. They constantly interupt the teacher and so I don't get half of the lesson; these kids don't get in trouble. How do I deal with this? Please help!

An account executive deposited $42,000 into two simple interest accounts. On the tax free account the annual simple interest rate is 3.5%, and on the money market fund the annual simple interest rate is 4.5%. How much should be invested in each account so that both accounts earn the same annual interest rate?

My grades are pretty good, I have mostly A's, and I volunteer a bit, and I have performed in a lot of community activities. However, I am TOO quiet in school, and never participate in class. I'm worried this is going to affect my teacher recommendations. Even with not so good teacher recommendations, will I be able to get in to the NHS? I also don't have any leadership positions for school activities, like president, or captain of a team. will I still be able to get in?

For a history test, I am supposed to find out two things for each of these 4 descriptions:

What might have the US and/or its allies have done to prevent the event?

and

Why didn't the US and/or its allies take action to prevent the event?



These are the four event descriptions:

1. Japanese Imperialism - Japapnese imperialism affected many areas of Asia, including Manchuria, a Chinese territory rich in mineral reserves that were important for supporting the military. The invasion of Manchuria was marked by the indiscriminate killing of unarmed civilians.

2. Munich Agreement - In 1938 Hitler met with British prime minister Chamberlain. Chamberlain appeased Hitler's demands for territory in Czech., setting the stage for Hitler's troops to occupy Czech. and invade Poland.

3. Bombing of Pearl Harbor

4. American Isolationism - In spite of threat of fascist aggresion, US pursued policy of isolationism throughout 1920s-1930s.

Help anyone?

I'm having trouble deciding between the two majors. What's the difference? Which major looks "better" to employers? What kinds of jobs can i get with each? What do the salaries look like for each?

May 1st is the national decision deadline, when you have to tie yourself to a college, to your future. I am deciding between three schools and I really need some advice. I have been accepted to George Washington University, Boston University and the University of Iowa. Over Spring Break I visited GWU and BU. Here are my pros and cons. I love GWU, they have the programs and the location I want, but they are massively expensive, so I would have lots of debt. BU was nice, I liked it but not as much as GWU, it's also quite expensive. Iowa is also nice and a lot cheaper, but it's really big. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for these schools. What do people think about going into debt for a school I really like or should I go to a school I kind of like but I can afford. Help would be appriciated.
