I am starting community college later than my classmates, and I want to catch up with them for fall semester of our junior year (at a university). I want to take as much classes as possible and to maximize my time. However, I can't take summer classes because I have to leave the country during summer to visit family. Is it possible for me to take those summer classes online? and will they be credited?

If a school is licensed by the state education department but not accredited by anyone is it as good or trustworthy as an accredited school?
I'm not talking about on-line schools.
The school i'm researching actually has a physical location to attend. it's a vocational school.
Also is it possible to be accredited by a respected institution but not licensed by the state ed dept?

A few months ago I was given a booklet with information about my exams.On the first page are all my details for the exam entries (I'm in year 12 and have a January exam). I only just noticed that my date of birth is incorrect, and I looked it up in the booklet and it says to inform the Examination's Officer, but I don't know what to do because I only have one day of school before the exam, and now we're in the holidays and I'm really worried. What should I do to get this fixed?

(I know I should've checked the information sooner but what can I do now?)

My apology wasn't enough
my friendship meant nothing
you said you weren't the same
i feel like im the only one left to blame
nobody knows how much pain you gave me
when you said it was over between us.
so i guess ill forget that you even existed and give up.
i made a mistake of meeting you
because i thought you would care and like me
but it was just a dream i woke up too and it just ended so quickly
with a goodbye=[

Ppl revere Drs and those academically acclaimed in the world of academia especially in Science. However, are these ppl REALLY better than those who have less intelligence but a heart of self denial and love towards others? I know these so called Drs are only ominscient in their own eyes, but do you really think they are Gods in their own rights?

Many people use the word love, but fewer than use it know what it means. The greeks were a little smarter than us when it came to communicating words that better depict the different forms of love. Lets face it. "I love chocolate," "I love my friend," and "I love you." can all be said in different ways. So what is Love?

Basically, I want to know what the process is from here - step by step. Is there an IEP? When is the Manifestation Determination meeting? Can the student be expelled? Under what circumstances? Do the special education laws differ from state to state (I thought they were federal)?

My brother has a PSP and I have a DS, so I figured I'd bring those. There's a DVD player in the car, but we don't have any new movies and the kids will only sit still for so long.

I guess I could bring coloring books. Maybe some snacks like Goldfish or something. Ummm ...

See, the thing is we're going to be doing most of our driving during the day. So I need ideas of stuff to keep them not-annoying!! xD

Also, we leave tomorrow (I pretty much just found out) so there's no time to go out and buy anything ...

And if you have any ideas for kid songs, tell me because I'm planning to make some CDs. The kids love songs like Who Let The Dogs Out and stuff like that.
