i took this class to get some experience, not to lower my self-esteem!
i'm bad at essay planning, that takes me a century seriously. i can't branch things or draw some spidergram with all these powerful ideas. i was never really taught that part in school, whenever i went to a new school, it seemed that my class already did that..so now im stressing about the AP writing exam and the smaller exam i will have this week. so..let's see: my planning is bad, my vocabulary becomes limited at these very "nerve-racking" tests, i can't connect anything, only after an hour maybe, it takes me a long time to read through the passage they give you..this is a practice timed writing i'm going to have, i flunked the previous one...because i wrote very little and i WAS trying to think, i just didn't hit the right buttons, let's say.
so is there some excercise or some example or short easy guide i could work out..test is coming soon. other than reviewing all the AP vocabs, what can i do to write better

I need to make a collage using Mercutio's famous speech about Queen Mab. I need to find 5 quotes from the speech, and find pictures that go with the images. Seeing as I can't draw, I need to find images from the Internet. For example, I took the quote:

"Sometime she driveth o’er a soldier’s neck,
And then dreams he of cutting foreign throats,
Of breaches, ambuscadoes, Spanish blades,"

and I put a picture of a spanish soldier with a sword. But I can't find any other pictures to go with the paragraph.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

I want to have some information about the universities especially from students and teachers.

I have graduated from an international high school which has a high reputation. I have an International Baccalaureate diploma. I especially want to know about scholarship system, advantages and disadvantages among the universities. Most probably I will study law. And I have an EU citizenship (I know citizenship is an important matter about scholarship.)

If you can, please give me details about some good universities. I have some basic information and I want to have the details with names. I'm thinking on a few universities in Oxford but I'm still not sure.

Any good information about this subject will keep me interested. Thanks in advance.

dilapidation

obsolescence
abandonment
establishment

I'm not sure if they're dilapidated, derelict, obsolescent, abandoned, established (the 1st and the last 2 could also be verbs. Does it depend on the context?). I might be wrong, that's why I asked you.
Thanks :)
