I have lived in America (California) all my life, but recently, after 8th grade (middle school), I have moved to ShangHai, China to attend International School.

I want to go back to the USA to attend at LEAST the last 2 years of high school, but my dad thinks I should stay here for 3 years, then go back for the last year, because then I could "Relax". He thinks that by then, we'd already have all the college apps. mailed out, is this true?

The problem is, which actually would be a better year to go back to America: Sophomore year (if so), Junior year or Senior year? I need time to catch up (as China's International School might not have the exact curriculum as America's), adjust, and to get enough exceeding grades as to get into a good college.

Thank you, please tell me the reasons why you'd think whatever year is best to go back.

our lil one is 5 today so, it's school time. b4 i ever got preggy, i always said that i would do everything possible to NOT send my child 2 a public schl. he was in preschl last yr 2 days a week, 3 hrs a day. he really enjoyed that. this wasn't just reg preschl, sorta private/family owned. it is well known in my area & great. now, that he's 5 - what am i to do?? i am wanting him in a christian schl, but he can't start til he's 6. i've talked with his preschl teacher from last yr & she said he's welcome to come back & that he won't be taught the same thing as last yr. i'm comparing christian to public. in my area the public schl is NOT a good place -drugs,shooting,gangs,etc. i was there & don't want my kid there. it is so run down, schl has a mold prob but is reparing it. some buses has 2 routes, taking bout 2 hrs to get home if u ride the bus. i'm NOT racist, but my kid would be outweighed by 97% of another race. the schl/town is named by this other race. continued--

Hi, I've been very stressed lately by this. I need to see what other people have to say about it.

I am a undergraduate student at the CUNY (City University of New York) Macaulay Honors College at Baruch College. Its a program that offered me a full scholarship, and that was basically why I chose to attend it. My major is a BBA in Economics with a Real Estate minor. After this upcoming semester, I will have completed 90 credits. My GPA is currently a 3.94. I've also established myself pretty well here, becoming the treasurer of an Economics club, and also getting involved in many of the school's activities.

However, I still don't know why I feel that I'm not quite satisfied with where I am. If I were able to, would it be a wise move to transfer to Cornell Univeristy and continue my Economics studies over there? It'll be only a year and half more of studies if I do transfer. Would this be a wise move? Please help me..

P.S. Money isn't TOO big a problem but its defintely a factor.

I am a poli sci grad who is thinking to obtain a MS(not MBA) from Japan. I am interested in entrepreneurship in the digital media industry. I got inspired by my mentor to study about business intensively. With a background in political science (interested in policy making) to go into business related field, does it this sound appealing to you? I just want to make a plan so I can work on it.

preferred people with academic experience (Professor) to answer my question.

is GPA a indication to succeed as a future graduate in MBA?

I disagree with that, because it is not the grade that matters. As far I am concern, there are quite bit of business leaders who didnt finish college. Book street is not the same as street smart.

I am not saying this because I have a bad gpa. I have around a 3.4, I guess it is alright. I am just questioning those people who want to go into grad school(especially MBA) without any clue to start with.

Please share your thoughts with me.

In the late 18th century, American colonists felt passionately that the British were disregarding their rights. To what extent was the United States itself, as evidenced by its’ social, economic and political institutions undemocratic, even when measured against the standards of that time?
