Well I have testing to go to at 6:00 to get into Hamilton High School. I'm scared and nervous. What do you do when you are testing to get into the school? Describe everything for me from ONCE you walk into that door. I need to know what to expect. [not asking for questions on the test, im asking for what did YOU do when you walked through that door. [just so i can be aware of it]

my teacher sucks. thats the only way i can phrase it. he doesnt explain anything, and i get bad grades because he's always putting stuff on the test that i never seem to know. he makes us do all the work !! like make LABS. im confused and i really don't know how to deal with this.
should i go to extra help, learn out of the textbook, or just ask ?

My highschool has 2 buildings, a north and a south.. the north is 9-10 and the south is 11-12
The south was origionally for 9-12 but there was to many students .. So basically the south building has never been changed or repaired.. My mom went to the south highschool and she is 41

The south highschool has no air conditoning.. I think that is ridiculous for an american school to have no air conditioning.. Now it isnt THAT big of a problem, but ignoring the problem until it becomes a big problem wil not solve anything. IN the hotter summer months it can definatly reach the 100's and 90's .. I live in south jersey and we have some weird *** weather, it is currently around the 80's now and its october.. Last year it snowed not even 3 inches when we normaly get almost a foot of snow.. So basically its getting really hot due to global warming, and each summer gets worse.. What is my school waiting for, someone to die of heatstroke?

If you graduate from a top-ranked school like Harvard, Yale, or Stanford, you are basically guaranteed a job that pays over $60,000+ or placement into graduate school, even if you don't have that strong of a GPA (2.25-3.25). What if you majored in something common like psychology or neuroscience.

Alright, I'm aware of what a palindrome is... a word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same backward as forward.

However, my question is this: Is there a term for a word that is reversed? Like for example, if we take the word "place" & reverse it to "ecalp". Is there a term for this, even though the word doesn't make any sense?

Note: I'm not looking for a definition of the word spelled backwards... I'm looking to find out if there's a term used to describe the sequence or pattern. In this case, it is backward.

Thanks for your help, all!

I know most people will say it's becuase the kids don't care, the usual line.
BUT, I read all the time about other reasons for this.
1) schools do not want to help kids thru special ed, so they tell the teachers not to tell the parent that the child has problems.
2) There are too many kids in class for teacher to be able to teach them all and make sure they KNOW how to do these things.
3) NCLB mandates teachers to teach specific things at specific times. THey have to fly thru the work and stay on a schedule, so if any child does not learn the material, he is LEFT BEHIND.
THis stupid law is causing the very thing it was made for.
4) Some teachers just don't care.

It appalls me that kids go thru 13 yrs of school and dont' even know how to read and write!!!

What are the reasons you can think of?
