I really want to go to Columbia for college, I've checked out their website and stuff like that, but I was wondering if anybody here had actually gone to school there, and what you thought of it, and how hard you worked in high school to get in. Thanks!

I went back to college exactly 10 years after I was supposed to (I was 27 instead of 18). After two good years at a community college, I got into a bunch of good schools (although I didn't aim at the TOP ones) and settled at a private research university in Massachusetts which still appears in US News' top 100. Now that I'm fairly close to graduation, I'm wandering what does it take to get into, let's say, Yale's film studies PhD program or another strictly academic, not money-making, PhD program.

Does the same rules that apply for undergrads apply here? I'm not talking about law or economics, I'm thinking about rhetoric / American studies or film studies. What do they look for? I've been doing all sorts of things related to cinema and subcultures in general. What should I be sure to have before applying?

Hey everyone! I just recently finished my first semester as Junior 1. Unfortunately, I didn't do really well on 2 of my classes so I am already out of the program. Right at this moment, I have a lot of stuff going on in my head on whether or not I should go and try the ADN or move on and change my major. When it comes to going back to community college and try to get AD in nursing, I am worried and scared that I will have the same performance. I know I will see the same questions and it will require the same critical skills. I really had a tough time with the test. I have studied my butt off yet it wasn't enough. It is very discouraging but I try to be as positive as I can be. I took the risk of staying in class even though I know I am having a hard time and in the back of my head, there's a chance that I can fail. I was there to learn and I am glad that I didn't drop my class. But, of course, nursing school doesnt see that. Should I go and take nursing again or move on? Serious reply

Hey, I live in Georgia, but I'm interested in going to a university in southern California, when I went there this past summer I just fell in love with the state. Has anyone ever gone this far away from home? I also know people in Cali aren't exactly as "friendly" as people here in the south, so I'm wondering if any college students there be nice enough to open their arms to me even if they don't know me. Does anyone have a friend that goes to an out-of-state college? Any suggestions on universities in southern Cali?

Or does it merely provide an individual with a goal to be achieved? I would like to hear from some Human Resources professionals if any are available for comment. I am a displaced worker from the auto industry. And while I have an A.A.S. in a trade related field,I've got a bitter taste for manufacturing. I am middle age and have university credits that palce me in junior level classes.

I'm graduating this spring (im 24 years old), and i am considering to take the GMAT to get into an MBA program (part-time school, so i can work full time). However, im not sure what to expect from the GMAT, i know what areas are covered but the difficultly of the exam is the question, how did you study, handle, and prepare for the exam? Also, how was your MBA experience, did it greatly affect your job offers, salary, job position, ect? Any suggestions and comments would be appreciated, im just trying to get alittle input before i make this investment. Thanks in Advance.

I know the general answer is "a lot", but what exactly does that mean? I would think 6 months is enough time to study, but I will also be in the middle of Spring Semester and juggling classes. Are a couple Kaplan books and the practice tests from LSAC. org enough, especially since I cannot afford a prep class? Does anyone have a particular method that yielded great results?

I'm on my last part of my application: What in particular about Yale has influenced your decision to apply? I've written all the other 500 word personal statements, and I think they are original and entertaining. But this 50 words or less essay is giving me trouble. I don't want another mundane answer like , "Yale has a world renowned reputation..." Yadda yadda yadda... I want a heart felt answer that doesn't sound like I'm just another kiss-***... so can any Yale student give me any personal opinions on the school? Maybe that can inspire me to see Yale just beyond the obvious

I got my grades in and got 3 A's, 1 A-, and a C+.... I have three more semesters (average of 5 classes each semester, plus three for the summer and one for the winter) till I graduate from college. I need to graduate with a 3.7 because I like to meet the standards that I set for myself. Please let me know what grades I can afford to get from here on out (Can I afford one B?, one more C??) Let me know. Thanks.

Would a letter of recommendation from the President of the University I currently attend help? Also, I had to withdraw twice once for health reasons and once because of my grade in a math class. Will they take this into account when I apply? Could that hurt my chances?

I have applied to a group of top schools to get my Ph.D. in school psychology. I am also a full time teacher and taking masters classes. I have been invited to interview at an out of state school, but with my workload it is difficult for me to travel so far. I can do a phone interview, but will the school lean in favor of applicants who interview in person, or will they understand my circumstances and not hold it against me?

I need a bit of advise, on how to become a secondary school Maths teacher.
I've got a BSc (but not honours), in Maths. So what now?
Do you need honours to get into teacher training?
Also, I left uni about 3 years ago, do you think that will make a difference?
Any advise would be great :)
