I feel towards someone contradicting emotions: I both despise him for something he did, and want to give him a second chance. I feel a sort of sense of sadness when I think of the "what ifs," and part of me wants to be his friend still, though I don´t know that I can trust him again. I feel bitter too, I think. And I have moments where I really just hate him. I don´t know the word for all these feelings. I was thinking antagonistic or animosity... But I am not sure. Any suggestions would be so helpful. Please and thank you.

I was wondering if Grad schools pay too much attention to community college GPA? I transferred from community college to university with not so good GPA (very lazy), but I'm doing well in university (GPA 3.50+). I wanted to know if I keep up my GPA at university, get involved a lot on campus, get an internship in Europe...will the gard schools possibly look at the recent university activity more than what I did years ago in community college? I would hate to know that my present good student status might hurt my admission to various grad schools because of some community college. Forgot to add that i'm in honor's society as well in university, so I'm hoping that the grad schools won't pay too much attention on my community college transcript. Anyone knows anything about this?

She no doubtly has the intelligence to do the work and pass, but she herself will come out and tell you that she's lazy!! I have tried everything to motivate her from grounding her, bribing her, talking with teachers, signing her homework, etc. I'm seriously at the point of not knowing what else to do and I'm afraid that if this keeps up, she'll eventually drop out of school. In most of her classes, she does ok, but could do better. What raises a red flag for me is that in one of her strongest subjects, Social Studies, the teacher seems to have it out for my daughter and she now has a 17% average in her class. I have tried to meet with the teacher, the guidance counselor, the principal, and still haven't got anywhere!! What should I do?

I am currently a junior in a college prep high school and need help with my search for colleges! I currently have a 3.9 GPA and I take 3 honors courses (honors math with a 93, honors spanish with a 99, and honors chemistry with a 97). On my PSATS I only received a 1790/2400 but i expect that to go up. Our school is changing its GPA policy and I expect my GPA to reach a 4.1. I am interested in science and math majors such as biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, or maybe even premed. If any one has any college suggestions please help! and also if you have any other related major suggestions that would be great too!

it seems like you should be able to live off campus if you want to. they say that it's an "enriching experience" you should take part in, but it's been nothing but a nightmare for me. i've been trying to get off campus, but they keep insisting i have to stay. if i wanna pay monthly rent, take on my own responsibilities, etc. i should be able to! instead of paying an insane amount of money each semester to be unhappy. can they legally force you to stay on campus? can they not let you out of the requirement to pay room/board/etc.?

I want to go to top medical schools like John Hopkins, Baylor, Yale, etc. But I dont know if they will take the university into consideration if you have 3.7+ GPA, excellent community service profile, and excellent MCAT scores. Will it matter if I go to UCLA or UT at austin?
