I did my Masters in the UK, at a very reputable university, one of the leading in the field of advertising.
Should I mention this in my resume, next to the University's name, or would that sound arrogant?

People at my work always use a comma after thanks. I don't think there should be a comma there. If you are thanking someone I think it should just be "thanks bill" with no comma. My sister and boyfriend agree with me. WHICH IS IT???

I'am fluent in 2 languages and aslo advanced level at Spanish, intermediate at French and learning Croatian.
(Hope to become fluent in Spanish and Croatian by senior year)

I have about 6 e.c's so far but hope to expand the list

Junior year I will be starting a club called Youth Fight Cancer which will be non-for-profit. The money the club makes will be made by bake sales, parties etc. The money earned will be donated to St. Jude's research hospital and hope to start a partnership with it. (Position:Leader

My first choice would be the Computer Science program at their Engineering college. If not that, then my second choice is their computer science plus mathematics programs at LAS.

ACT composite: 30
GPA Weighted-4.1/Unweighted-3.8
Class Rank: Top 3.5% (Currently top 14 out of 400+ students in the class)

Unfortunately, my highschool isn't very competitive and is watchlisted under no child left behind act. I think more than half of juniors got a 19 or below on the ACT last few years

I was able to take two out of five of the offered AP classes at my school, and I almost all my classes are honors with the exception of gym class and other electives that do not have an honors variation.

Other misc info:
-I'm an immigrant from the philippines, came here 6 years ago.
-Regarding Computer Science, Im proficient in some variations of BASIC, learning c++ right now, but no java. My hs doesn't have ap comp science.

clubs:
National honor society
tennis(4 yrs)
Mathletes(3 yrs)
student council(2 yrs

I am considering going for a PhD in clinical psychology but I'm not that's interested in research (and I don't want to go for a PsyD because I heard that it can limit your options). I was wondering if their were any PhD programs that emphasized clinical practice over research.

Mine is a piece from The Complete Angler by Isaak Walton. It kind of says how people with money have no 'real life' as they are always worried about the amount they have. I know people like that. Very hard to get along with. Here it is:

Sir, there be many men that are by others taken to be serious and grave men, whom we contemn and pity. Men that are taken to be grave, because nature hath made them of a sour complexion; money getting men, men that spend all their time, first in getting, and next, in anxious care to keep it; men that are condemned to be rich, and then always busy or discontented: for these poor rich-men, we Anglers pity them perfectly.
Isaak Walton 1653
