I recently "dropped out" of high school (technically I'm in home school, but I really don't do any of the schooling, and nobody checks up on it) for personal issues with the administration. I'm wanting to go to UCLA, but I will most likely go to a community college. And I was wondering do I need to get a GED or enroll in HS and get a diploma, to even attend a college? Is it different for each school?

I have been charged the task of teaching my younger brother, who is five, the alphabet. He is going into kindergarten this fall, and can only recognize A-L. I have been teaching him for almost a year and he hasn't made any progress. He already knew A-L, but can't seem to remember the rest.

He also has a problem pronoucing S. He keeps pronoucing it X.

If you have any tips on how to help him learn, please tell!

I go to UT Austin and I am thinking about joining a frat but I dont drink, I dont like the house that I would live in, and I dont like the scene, but other than that, ive heard of other frat guys who have gotten some really nice jobs that pay really well just because they were in the frat and got many connections. what do you guys think?

I don't know what to do careerwise? I can't do with anything long enough, (I give up to easy/soon) and I'm no that intellectual (smart). So I have no idea what to do careerwise. I though about college-nursing, cosmetology, and a few others but I can't stand to wait that long (to begin/or too many yrs. to complete the program). I have a short attention span, is that bad? I just want to get started right away. I could be motivated for something one day and not for it the next day, and already be moved on to another career/job. For instants, Yesterday I thought about teaching, now I'm thinking about nursing, next it will proably be something totally different. Is this Normal? I also have 0 motivation, which doesn't help. Do you know of any decent Careers that sound like they would fit me, if thats even possible. Nothing Stupid Plez! (You will be ignored!)

My boyfriend is being accused of plagiarism for a paper that me and my mom helped him write. He goes to a good school, and the summer class film-studies teacher is actually an english professor.

We did not intentionally use the same words, and though we changed the phrasing we did not do a good job at using a thesaurus either.

Please help - he's never been in this situation before and does not know how to begin to discuss it with his prof.

This may be a stupid question, I am not sure. I know I am going to be living in the dorms this fall because I'm all signed up already, but could I still be in a sorority? Or can you only be in one if you live in the sorority house? I'm wondering if I should sign up for sorority recruitment or not.
