Education & Reference - 5 August 2007

Hello,
I am looking for a really unique interesting college. I have varied interests and have thirst for knowledge. However, I want a college that offers me flexibility with my curriculum and will also give me a unique experience. I am a free spirit whose life goal is to change the world:-)

so, what colleges can you recommend? in the US or internationaly, any unique schools of thought:-)

I only accept it from my 8th graders one day late but take off 50%. I figure it doesn't ruin their grade that way, but they still fail the assignment.

I have a 3.55 at a private school, but my ACT and SAT scores are certainly lacking. What does THAT tell colleges about me?

Come, you spirits that tend on mortal thoughts unsex me here; and fill me from the crown to toe top full of direst cruelty! Make thick my blood, stop up the access and passage to remorse that no compunctious visitings of nature shake my fell purpose. Come to my woman's breast and take my milk for gall, you murdering ministers wherever in your sightless substance you wait on nature's mischief! Come, thick night, and apll thee in the dunnest smoke of hell, that my keen knife see not the wound it makes nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark to cry

--------- AND-----------------
I shall make me a willow cabin at your gate and call upon my soul within the house; Write loyal cantons of contemned love and sing them loud even in the dead of night; Halloo your name to the reverberate hills and make the babbling gossip of the air cry out your name

okay so i'm sorry if this question might be considered dumb or not but i'm going to be a senior this year in high school and have started to research the colleges i want to attend. when it says you need about a GPA of 3.7 or something to get in does it mean your last GPA for your last completed semester should be a 3.7 or overall during all your years in high school your GPA should be a 3.7. i'm sort of confused.

I really want to go to college, I just can't decide on what career path to take. I have thought about this a lot and I always come back to accounting, business, or engineering. I am afraid I won't do well in engineering, but maybe a challenge would be a good thing. I think accounting would get boring after awhile since I am taking some classes in highschool, but maybe it would be good to go into something that I know a little bit about. And with business I'm afraid that that is going to be to broad of choice and it won't help me very much. I want to go for something that I should be able to get a job in when I graduate, I mean that is the point of going to college and I would like something that I will be able to help support a family with the income. Please help me chose a path to follow.

I have a high IQ, and I constantly told by my teachers I am extremely smart yet extremely lazy and unmotivated. I really have been depressed this summer (going into my senior year) because I dont want to become a joke of a person. I want to make my parents extremely proud. I want to live and work in my place of love, Manhattan. I want to be the best I can be, because I know I am different than most people. I just do not feel my grades reflect any hint of my wisdom, nor my intelligence. I recently took the SAT and barely prepared, infact I really didnt even prepare and got in the high 1400's. My parents constantly ask me why i dont share my genius, and I just shrug my shoulders and say "I wish I knew". I feel like I can be an AMAZING person, a role model for a lot of people. I want to get into a great public/private school, or ATLEAST a SUNY, such as Geneseo or Binghamton, but I just do not know how. I need to show them I am a step above other humans, that I am not like the rest. HELP
