Education & Reference - 5 September 2007

we have all been in this situation. you are trying to figure out a word or phase, its on the tip of your tongue but you just can't seem to say it. well i'm in this situation. i can not think of this phase, it is to describe the way you measure the benefits of a decision.

normally used in economics. it is describe how much satisfaction you will get immediately.

for instance, say i had to make a decision i could go to college, get qualifications, then go to uni. or get a job straight away, where i'll earn money straight away.

I'll receive something immediately...........? if i chose to get a job first, but i can't figure out what it is called.

This has been bugging me for hours someone please help!
i'll be surprised if you understand what i'm on about and the answer is simple. help!

With senior year starting I'm such a nervous wreck. College applications and whatnot are just stressing me out soo much! So, heres my story go head and call me stupid or whatever you want but I really need help. When school started off (freshman year) I just really wasn't into school at all. While I really enjoy learning I just couldn't focus. I got Ds and Cs and Bs. As sophomore year approched I still tried and got Cs and Bs. Then, junior year I took a few honors classes got Bs in all honors classes and two Cs. Senior year, I am trying so hard. I have 3 honors classes and I promised myself to do my best, although you might say it doesn't matter anymore. I took the SATs once and got around 1500-1510. I am going to take the SATs once or twice more. What do I do?! Applying for colleges is more hectic for me than any other senior I know. I am interested in biomedical scienes, biology, and anatomy. I know I will do great in the future but right now I really dont know what I should do. help
