I got a 31 on my ACT, and have a GPA of about 3.4 (out of 4.0). Will I get into U. of Illinois at Chicago? I am an Illinois resident, and my father went to U of I. It is my dream to live in the city, and I love this school! I just sent in my online application, and I'm requesting my transcripts/recommendations tomorrow at school. Thanks everyone!

When someone say "that is a very astute observation" in your own words (not dictionary words) what are they saying about my observation?

I'm in love with travel and want to study abroad, but don't know where to go because they all sound lovely. I'd like to go somewhere that fits my personality/interests, but unless I'm there I really don't know where that is!!! Let me know what you would recommend. And here's random things that might make a difference, throwing it out there (maybe your like me ;) )-

-I love knowledge and would learn everything I can, if I could
-I find culture fascinating
-I like to be alone, but I'm friendly and also like to be with people as well.
-I love to make things - stories, art, ideas, revolutions, philosophies.
-I like having limitless possibilities.
-INFP
-Aquarian (I know, really random here. . . . I'm desperate. . . . tailor-made recommendations.........anyone?))))

Hello,

I just started my Sophomore year in college about a month ago, and every thing is going pretty well. But I'm having second thoughts.

I feel like I'm wasting my time here. Don't get me wrong, I love college, it's just I feel like I'm not gaining anything by being here.

The classes are challenging but not difficult. So, I don't want to quit because of them.

I already know what I want to do for a career. I want to be a Youth Correctional Counselor for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. You either need a bachelor's degree or go through their one year training program to be one.

I don't want to drop out, also, because I am the first one in my family to go to college. So it would suck if I dropped out.

I have a full scholarship so money isn't an issue. I have no trouble maintaining a 4.0 GPA. I just feel like I'm in some sort of day-care center for teenagers.

Any and all help or advice is GREATLY appreciated!!!!

Thank you for all your hard work, because it totally pays off for us. Yall just don't know, but yall are a major influence in our lives, and some of the things we do or say, is stuff that we learned from you. I know that some teachers are mean, and I don't blame them..especially the ones that teach high school, having to put up with all the a$$ holes. The meaness that you give off actually disciplines us, and makes us work harder. Some teachers are actually like buddies to me, because I can talk to them about anything, and they have really saved my butt from alot of things that could have gotten me in trouble. They have taken up for me in many situations and I appreciate that. I just want to thank yall for all the hard work yall do, I know it's not teacher appreciation week, but I just had that on my mind.
