I have to write one for my report, and I remember last year my teacher gave me a link that if you put in the information it would write the Bibliography for you. But I've lost the link.

Can anyone please send me a link that would do this :D?
Thank you :]

I have heard many different things and with college steadily nearing Im concerened what requirments I have to make. Lets say for example that you took all honors classes and you got 1 B in one of them. Would they rather have you take the easy class and get an A or do they highly intelligent students who take harder courses? In addition Ive heard that colleges are taking class rank less and less into consideration. How do the SAT's and ACT's play a role in this. Whats a typical GPA that is required for a good college? Also how many extra-cirruculars are required in order to get in.

Ok, I've always wanted to be a neurosurgeon and I love science...especcially anatomy and I get As (except AP Bio.)...

Then I have languages (I take French and Italian)...I love them but not as much as anatomy (science in general) but they come like naturally to me...I get an A+ in both (French I and Honors Italian III) without even studying...I barely even study for their exam's and I still get at least a 94.

So even though I truly want to become a neurosurgeon should I just become something that has o do with languages since they're so easy which will make my life easier...



And I'm just asking 'cuz I'm a Junior and I'm starting to look at colleges but I still didn't decide on what I want to be...

Thanks

One person responded to a question with something about being "attacked" for her own question.

Yet, this very person called homeschooling "ridiculous"--isn't THAT an attack?

Another person posted in the parenting section a week or so ago about "why are homeschoolers so defensive?" Well, when people spout INCORRECT things like, "They don't get social contact," and "You're doing a disservice to your kids" and omg, some of the horrible things that have said in the past that definitely constitute an attack, of course people are going to defend themselves.

Perhaps the better question is: do homeschoolers attack naysayers any more than they attack homeschoolers?

My brother has ASD. And not much has been done earlier as he was only recently diagnosed. He is an adult now but with weak communication skills. What are his possible options after high-school? University might be difficult unless it has a program to cater for his condition. Are there specific progrms, colleges or vocational schools in Canada to will enable him in the future to join the work force and lead an independent adult life?

How are parents, who themselves are not highly educated, possibly educate their children better than teachers? Don't kids suffer disadvantages from failing to be exposed to multiple viewpoints, classroom competition, social interaction, and independence?
