Would you call it pimping out or whoring out? Lets say my brother is really good at fixing stereos and I have a friend who really needs one fixed so he says he'll give me something if I convince my brother to fix the stereo.

Am I pimping out my brother or whoring out my brother.

I am a freshman pre-med major and my gpa for my first semester is a 3.0 with no science courses. I was never that great in any courses other than science and this worries me that med schools might reject applicants because their gpa in other courses wasnt that high.

or is their a specific name for him besides Pope... I'm just kind of confused.

Any tips would be great!

Thanks.

At my school theres always someone making out with each other in the hallways and people can't get to classes on time because of them blocking the way.
Are teachers ok about students making out at school?

Okay, I am a junior in high school right now and I took some few extra classes in a Community College (LACC) over the vacations i had during high school. The classes I took were Music 101 (got a B), Psychology 101(got a B), Antropology(B), History US(A), Physics Fundamentals (B), and here comes the bad part... Political Science (got a F!), Philosophy (got a D!). Im wondering how bad does this look if i send it to a decent University? and how badly will this effect my gpa? I am worried because I took these as extra classes but didnt do so good. Is it a good idea to retake the classes I got a D and F in?

sorry if this is hard to read

am looking around at colleges and before I went to visit I wanted to know where I should be looking. I have a relatively high GPA, above 4(mine is not out of a 4.0 scale) have taken 7 AP classes and done well on all of the exams. I am on the swimming team but not a star athlete, just do it for the excercise although I do compete. I volunteer about 30 hours a year at a courthouse where I am an attorney. Also a writer for my school newspaper and I am Treasurer of my grade. What types of schools can I get into, and am I qualified for a school like Harvard, Penn, or Columbia?
