Education & Reference - 20 November 2007

Hi, I hope anybody could help me here. You see I'm sort of thinking about going into the RN career (more because of the money if I may be direct). My main question is: Once I become an RN, will I be able to find lots of time for other type of hobbies, like being at a sports team and theatre?

I am looking for practice chemistry CLEP exams, either online or that I could print off. Does anybody know where I can find some? I know about the books you can buy, but those are expensive, and I don't need the book, I just need practice tests. Thank you.

ok, I skipped 2 grades and I would like to get a scholarship if at all possible, whether it be in athletics or academics. I want to know if colleges can look at one's age, and are allowed to refuse them because of their age. it may sound ridiculous, but is it possible that colleges could say, "well, they're too young to enter college and can't enter the real world yet, so we definitely can't accept someone like that." I want the truthful answer, but I do get all A's in honors and am involved in 3 sports.

I sent him an email stating "know one will be coming around tomorrow."

He believes i should have stated "no one will be coming around tomorrow"

I am not saying he is wrong but I am asking if we are both right in making the statements?

Next year I'll be applying for a few colleges around this time but I need some help with possible majors and career paths to follow. I love animals but I don't want to be a vet or w/e. I used to want to be a zoologist but I am not sure about all the sciene classes and stuff I would need to take. I love school and teaching and being with kids but I dont know if I'd want to be a teacher or even what level. I also am very interested in television (esp. reality) and would be interested in doing things like decorating sets and stuff (like Big Brother house or Survivor challenges). I am pretty creative and do scrapbooking and stuff. I dont want to be in front of the camera either. I know I want to go to a four year college. Based on my interests, do you have any suggestions of majors that I might be interested in researching more? Thanks!

I'm a senior in Pennsylvania and I'm thinking about applying for MIT
My friend once told me that if i can get a high math score on the SAT and do well in math and science classes at school...i have a better chance of getting into MIT. is that true? So all u need is a 780+ in math section and high Bs and As in science and math classes? Or does MIT look at the reading section (equally with the Math section)?
My math section score was a 780 but my reading section score was low. I do have lots of As and high Bs in my classes at school (GPA: 3.6 out of 4.0), and i have lots of activites,clubs & work experience to my name. My SAT II scores are Math II: 750 and Chemistry: 800.
my mother tongue is not English but I'm not taking English as Second language. I can speak fluently in 3 languages: English, French & Indian Lang(Mother tongue)
I'm not a citizen of US nor a permanent resident-expecting green card in about 3-4 weeks-is this an advantage
What are my chances of getting into to MIT?

My 3 yr old boy still doesn't know his colors. I try to teach him almost everyday at home , store , everywhere but he does not seem to get it. He can match them by color so he is not color blind. He just can't name them correctly or if I ask "Show me the red one" , most of the time he is wrong , he gets it sometimes but I think it just by chance . He just turned 3 last month and from what I have been reading he should know at least 2 colors by now. He can count to 10 in two languages,knows all shapes , most letters but I am not sure how to teach him colors.
Also he is very shy with people and likes to throw ripped paper (in small pieces ) in the air . He does that 2-3 times a day. I was wondering if this is some autism symptom?

In my current situation my credentials will not allow me to gain admittance into a University (insufficient credits), so my action plan is to attend a community college for one year and then transfer to a University. Will I still be held accountable for not havings earned the high school credits--- and is there a way in which those credits could be earned, in order to be admitted to the University after having completed the 1st year at the CC level?

Mainstreaming has caused bullying and school shootings to start. Mainstream schools group students based on ability. That is how bullying starts. The "real" inclusion encourages all students to LEARN together. Therefore students are NOT encouraged to bully. Students would be a lot happier when everyone is taught to learn together.

Mainstreaming is the practice of educating students with special needs in regular classes during specific time periods based on their skills.
Here is the link: http://encarta.msn.com/dictionary_/Mainstreaming.html

Inclusion is the practice of educating students with special needs in regular classes for all or nearly all of the day instead of in special education classes.
