A friend and myself were discussing this, she said counselor (now i dont think a counselor is even a doctor, but thats a different question, lol) and i said chiropractor.
what is the correct answer? i doubt it is any of these.

I feel that this countries public schools are the biggest waster of funds anywhere except maybe the military.

In my state the average cost of a k-12 grade education is over $10,000 per student per year. Some fantastic private schools charge much less.

I know some of the costs are associated with things like students getting free breakfast, free lunch and those students who don't even know english but this is still absurd.

One small district here in WA spends OVER $40,000 per student per year!

That is insane - is there any reasonable explanation?

Apparrently you can defer payment until you graduate. I am currently in community college and am working towards pharmacy school. If I get a loan now, will I be able to defer payment until after I graduate from GRAD school, or after I graduate from my four year?

I kinda let this one sneak up on me.I've had 2 weeks to do it but I've been terribly busy. Its due tomorrow and I'm still writing the outline. I have to pick a religion and talk about how to acquire new followers, Benefits of joining and then I have to reflect on how I would respond on the methodolgies prescribed. The religion I chose is Scientology, but I don't want to plagiriaze. How do I describe the religion in my own words if its a research paper? Do I just still research on the web and in the book and just use quotes?? Its been so long since I've written an Essay I'm confused. Someone please help.

What can I say I had a rough and sporadic run and in the end burned out. 3 +1/2 yrs at a local school where I was matriculated with a 1.81 and a sting of summer and fall '06 classes at BU which I enrolled in for inspiration and in the end failed 6 classes straight. I know I am capable of the work and believe at another institution I could, and probably will succeed. Will I be able to get into a community college? And if that goes well for 2 yrs will I be able to apply to a decent University program. I'm determined to prove to my family that I'm moving onward and upward. Should I disclose my first 4 years of collegiate *&^*(&* ups when reapplying. And if I run the risk of being found out should i just change my name and social security number to prevent a prospective college from accessing harmful records. I know it isn't ethical. But if I go above and beyond these next 2yrs of community college don't i deserve a second chance and therefore merit exoneration from my acad. past?

I'm fifteen and already I'm in college thanks to an early college/high school program. I know it's a great opportunity and I know that I'm lucky to be in it but I can't handle it. There is too much work, too much stress, and I have to kill myself to get even a C+. I don't want to get out because come on FREE COLLEGE!! But I'm scared for my mental and physical health. I've been depressed and tired, going to school from 8 am to 5 pm hurts. Then the homework. My hair is falling out, my weight is up and down, skin is going crazy. Please help.
