Education & Reference - 1 August 2007

I'm 21 years old. I'm planning on going to a local community college. Because it's cheaper and closer to home. I didn't go to college right out of high school because I couldn't afford it. I spent the last 2 years working at a preschool as a teacher assistant saving as much money as I could for school. and now want to go to college and major in education. But I'm worried that I'm starting too late and will have a hard time making friends and stuff. I know I should really focus on getting my degree and I am but at the same time I was hopeing to meet some great people too.

I really don't think it's my thing, I've already quit a school once, and I'm seriously thinking about quitting the college I'm in now. I'm just not interested in it any.

I would really love to be a first grade teacher when I graduate college. But I have some questions.

While reading newsletters from other first grade teachers out there....this is what they have said. "We are having a wonderful time writing in our science journals."
"We just finished up writing a story about dinasouars for our science unit."
How can first graders write in journals when they don't know how to write?? By the middle of the year do the students know how to read or write little sentences or what?? When they come to you from kindergarten......do they know how tor read or write a little?? Please answer my questions because I don't know what the students already know when they come to first grade....thanks!

I have a 3.0 gpa, but I totally botched my SATs. I got a 630 in verbal, which is ok but my math was a very embarrassing 470. I have tons of extra-curricular and volunteer work though. I'm going to take my SATs again to raise it up, but at this point I just want to know, what colleges could I get into with those kind of grades?

When you look on products that you buy at the store, in small letters, always by the Bar Code, you see the words "Proof of Purchase". What does that mean?

If it means that it proves that i bought the item, does that mean i can just take it off the shelf and say i bought it because i have proof right here?

I want to know what my chances are of getting into UCLA or UC Berkeley.

-I have a 3.6 GPA

I scored 1860 on SATs

-I am aiming for an IB diploma (hoping to stand out as there arnt many IB diploma candidates applying to US universities.)

- I am an international student studying in another country, although I am also a California resident since my parents have a house there.

-I am part of the Key Club, Stu Gov, National Junior honor society, Chinese honor society, a leadership position in Orphanage Club, a leadership position in World Vision, and I am also part of the chamber music group (an auditioned musical group with string instruments that takes only 2-3 players of each instrument...very hard to get in!)

-I have done 106 hours of volunteer work and 2 summers of internship with 2 big computer companies.

-I've gotten a few awards for community service for clubs at school.

- i write pretty good essays...

-Potential majors are something to do with science.maybe computers.

THANKS
