Since students can use their school identification for airport security, identification for a job, and other places where identification is required, I believe having a student’s birth date printed on their card would be helpful in a variety of instances – including helping movie theatres, video stores, and music and video game retailers ensure they are only selling their products to those who are of the proper age.

Mostly, the students in my 8th grade class is either 12 or 13 years old. But I don't understand; I even skipped one grade, but I am 14 years old. I came here in the US from the Philippines-I attended school there until 3rd grade...They would be suprised to know my age because I'm not really tall unlike my peers.

My question is, what's the "ideal age" for the grades in school (elementary, middle school, etc.)?

I am considering of attending UIC but I don't know much about the experience at UIC. How are the teachers and the campus in your opinion? Do or did you enjoy your time at UIC? What did you like most about the school and what did you hate most about the university? How are the academics?
