Higher Education (University +) - December 2006

If you are going to law school, is it better to know a second language (hence, a BA) or take higher math (a BS)? For my law school 64% of the students speak a second language.

The biggest thing that I hate is when my professor gives me an 89 in a class. 89s are the worst grades ever because it's so close to an A, and whenever a teacher gives me this grade, I feel as if they're teasing me.

I am worried that if I wait for waitlist (The response won't be till end of May) that I will miss my chance to accept another college offer if the waitlist rejects me. SO should I just reapply? Any suggestions?

I just got my ACT scores back. I scored a 29 and it was my first time. I don't really know what the average is for most schools so I was wondering if anyone can tell me what kind of colleges I can get into with that. I plan on taking it again, but I would just like to know where I stand in the event that I don't score any better next time.

It seems that with the majority of college students these days, the only options they ever consider to pay for college are their parent's money, financial aid, scholarships, and loans. What happened to the days when kids paid for themselves?

Some of these essays ask you to tell about how you've overcome personal obstacles, hardships, struggles, ect...

Is it ok to get personal? Because it seems like they're asking about your personal life.

I don't want it to sound like a sob story or anything, but for example...my parents are deceased, I spent a semester homeless, and I'm a transsexual who's college decided to out me in the school newspaper. So..I've been through some s**t. Is it ok to talk about these things as a way to describe overcoming adversity and how it's made me a stronger, more open minded person?

For example, I want to be able to write an awesome essay, but I have trouble with organization. My english professors have all told me that I'm an excellent writer though. So, if an essay asks you to describe why you chose your major and what contribution you're going to make to the world with that choice, is it ok to use "I" statements? I don't want the essay to sound arrogant or conceided. I want it to reflect how I want to help others, but also to show my own personal strengths. This is what the essays asks:

"Why did you choose a medical profession over other educational opportunities? And what contribution will you make to the medical world?"

"How will this scholarship help you meet your educational and professional goals?"

How should I approach this?

I graduate from my MBA soon, and professors advise me to keep studying and to go to PhD. I don't know much about PhD's lifestyle and school specifics though. Can you share your experience with me? And can you also tell me if it's a good idea for a girl in the age of 24 or if it's better to see more of life before becoming a student again? Thank you.
