i love fashion and i spend most of my time on it. but, it's really affecting my schoolwork. i don't know the great ways to memorize vocab words, or study for a big test. it makes me bored enough to go sew a purse or look at "seventeen" magazine. and usually its the same result with having my parents yell at me for not working harder! and it makes me feel really guilty. but i can't control it. all i want to do after school is sew or look in my closet. and that leads to staying up 'till midnight complaining about math homework. so please, anyone? i need some big help here. im in 7th grade also

I just graduated with my BSBM and am seriously thinking about pursuing a MBA. I don’t know what to expect, my last program was based around team work and presentations. I did hear however that some programs require you to do extensive paper writing is that true? I have to say that the longest paper that I wrote was about 10,000 words long. Can some one with an MBA tell me what your experiences has been?

My advanced calculus textbook is horrible. It is very poorly explained without any examples at all, 99% of the time. The exercises have no connection whatsoever to what the chapter explains.

I can find way better books than this in advanced calculus on amazon.com and they're far more helpful.

I do not know why my university almost always prefers textbooks by Pearson, Prentice Hall for science and technology courses when there is so much variety out there.

I'm moving with the class average grade (which is D so far). You have scores like 61 or 67 as average on exams, which does not even qualify to be C grade.

I feel whoever the person to decide what of kind of book to be used is doing a horrible job and has little or no knowledge at all of the course.

College isn't going nearly as well as I thought it would...in fact I hate it. My grades are mediocre at best (I have a 2.1 GPA). I'm not earning enough money to pay for school and I have to keep taking out loans. I have difficulty getting from campus to back home across state because I don't have a car. Also, my home situation is messed up and my folks can't help me out. As far as school itself is concerned, I am extremely lazy and often have no motivation to do work other than for the fact that it has to be done. I always procrastinate and I can't seem to manage my time efficiently. I haven't made many friends since being at college either, and I don't know why because I am a nice person.

I just feel that I'm wasting my time by continuing to stay in school. Should I drop out and work a blue-collar job instead, not necessarily flipping burgers but like at UPS or something?

...if I know I'll never be able to afford to get my master's later on? I know the maximum I'll be in college is 4 years, I'm already in debt up to my eyeballs and that's with every possible scholarship and grant. I'm a sociology major planning on becoming a counselor...is this even possible with just a bachelor's degree? If not, should I change my major to something I don't really like so I can get a job with just my bachelor's degree?

Back in the day, you could claim bankrupsy. Now you can defer, stay in school or a million different ways to procrastinate paying back. I've used them all up, except for going back to school. I want to change my major and have ruined my credit and want to be able to just erase the money I borrowed. Do I have a choice?

"I'm Jackie holt. These two photographs are of me. And that's my mamma. She’s come to get me. I have to go to her right away because…” I swallow and my eyes brim with tears again… “Because that’s my daddy. He’s dead. But I’m alive. I have to tell mamma I’m alive.”
That’s all ill say. I won’t tell anyone where I’ve been, because it doesn’t matter to anyone, except me and Claudia. I look at the picture of Mamma and whisper, “Buck up. I’m coming.”

How is it correct? Is it like "Raven by Poe" or "Raven of poe"?The same thing about movies: " E.T. by Spielberg" or " E.T. of Spielberg" Are there circumstances when we can use either of those two forms?
Thanks.

So, I'm in 8th Grade and we're working on finding percents, my math teacher gave us homework to work on over our long Thanksgiving Break but I don't really understand how to do these, some examples of what we're doing are:

1. 1% of 127
2. 5% of 75
3. 50% of 84

How can you figure these out using a calculator? (Yes, we are allowed those.) Thanks in advance for any and all helpful hints as to how I can do these problems. Have a nice night! : )
