Education & Reference - 18 April 2007

U.S. taxpayers give BILLIONS of dollars to U.S. universities every year to educate their kids but a lot of that money goes to educate foreigners that will take that education that the American taxpayer paid for and go back to their countries just to take away jobs from Americans.

I feel silly, but I'm a bit overwhelmed with the "College Question" and figured I might as well ask random strangers as not.

Right. I'm a junior, and here's where I stand:

- My GPA is about 4.6 weighted and 3.8 unweighted.
- SAT: 600 math, 700 writing, and 800 verbal.
- I've taken two AP/college level courses and will take 3-5 more next year.
- I was accepted into the NHS.
- I'm not really in clubs, but I've done a weekly volunteer thing for three years now.


I have no earthly clue where I want to go or what I want to do or who I want to be. Really. None!

I would prefer to stay on the East Coast, but am thinking about venturing further.

Coed is fine, but I'd also be fine with an all-girls school.

Could any of you fine people provide me with guidance? Advice? Anecdotes? Schools to avoid?

If so, I'm much obliged to you.

recently i had to do an essay whether schools should have english classes for immigrants. i say they should. why not? it makes communicating better and easier and there would be no need for translators. however others feel that if you're going to come to a country you should at least already know the language. what do you think?

What do you see yourself doing in the future if you take this up? Everyone knows that Masscom is unprofessional. She even said that herself.

She even wanted to take up BS Psychology or Computer Science. The only problem is though, her mom's forcing her to take mass com (because according to her you can also learn how to deal with people and be computer literate during the course of its program, therefore you needn't study the two other courses). They've talked about it over and over, but still her mom insists.


I wanna tell her to convince her mom to do what she wants. But is it the right thing to do? Doing this may appear to be sign of rebellion and I wouldn't like that.

If I can't do the above, then might as well encourage her. What's up with Mass Com, anyway? What are the good things about it?
