.....between Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, and US President, George Bush????????
I think that Bush likes Brown... so Brown would get a couple of blows in!! I've seen Bush jogging and keeping fit.... so I believe that he would pound Brown for a while!!!? Brown would, though, get a few bangs of his own in!!!
Ultimately, and I'm not showing bias, I DO think that Brown would lick Bush!!! What's your thoughts?????

I got into both schools, my two favorites, but are completely different schools. Pitt is huge, lots of choices whereas everything at MCPHS is in one big building. I like both schools and it's so hard to decide. I got into Pitt's 2+4 pharmacy program and the 0+6 pharmacy program at MCPHS.

I know Pitt has a great reputation in healthcare, but MCPHS is known for its pharmacy. I got $6000 scholarship from MCPHS and none from Pitt.

I've searched around the internet, and everyone said MCPHS is HARD to get into, even harder to get into than USP. I don't get it. their requiremen and average SAT is pretty low. and I got wait listed at USP. is MCPHS really a good school with a good reputation, compared to Pitt??

I’m going to this program in California next year, which is a Continuing Ed program for translating/interpreting. It’s a non-credit Certificate program that lasts about 2 ½ years. Many people tell me I can’t get financial aid because with this program, I’m not going to be a matriculated student. But I wonder why on the FAFSA, it asks a question about Continuing Ed?

I am a freshman in college now and i recently ended my first semester. During this first semester I have been through alot of problems concerning paying for college. My mom ended up fixing things and it was up to me to not waste the money and go to class. I did the exact opposite and the worst thing is that I lied to my parents about my grades. I am on academic probation and my parents recently found out. My mom was very upset and it seems like she gave up on me. After seeing my mothers face I vowed to myself that I would find a way to gain back my mothers trust and go back this semester but I dont know how to pay for college by myself while on academic probation. Please help i need advise!

I only need 2 more classes to complete my Associates degree in the Spring. Each class is worth 3 credits. The thing is that I have signed up for 4 classes. Do you guys know if any of the extra credits over 60 count towards my bachelors degree? For example, if I have 55 total credits and I take Four 3 credit classes, then ill have 67 total credits. Do those extra 7 credits count towards my bachelors, or are they wasted classes that only help boost my GPA?

Thanks for any responses.

Hello, I am graduating from UMASS Dartmouth with a degree in economics at the end of the spring semester and am considering going to school for an MBA. What schools are the best in terms of "bang for the buck"? I have a GPA of about 3.68, so I am not really sure if I can get into the upper echelon schools, so I am looking to find a school that is very good and reputable, but also somwhat of a bragain for how good it is? If no, such school exists, just give me an idea of what the best to apply to would be.
