I'm getting As and Bs in high school. I wish I would try harder and get all As, but does it really matter that much? I plan on going to a community college for two years and then switching to a four year college. As long as I get good grades when I go to a community college, should my high school grades really matter?

I graduated with two Bachelor degrees. I haven't had a stable career. I am frustrated because I am having a hard time making my ends meet.
The main frustration is that I am just a typist that does not require a college degree, which is very low paying job.
How did you succeed with what type of job to pay your bill?
Does it require a Bachelor degree?
I don't have any money to travel, buy a car, buy a house or even start my own family (which is my dream).

I have a 2.79 and have 2 more full time semesters left at my community college before I transfer to a 4 year college. If I got all A's, or even A's and a couple B's, how long should it take me to bring up my GPA high enough to get into law school? If I can even get it that high again. Thank you for your help.

I've asked my professors about this, and they are split on the issue. Some have advised me to research (via the school's web site) the departments I'm applying to and email professors whose research interests match mine. I've done this research and identified several professors, but I'm concerned that such an email may be seen as my trying to ingratiate myself with that professor, and thus actually hurt (not help) my chances. I'm afraid I will come off as lame, with the professor thinking, "What kind of person does this!"

Is this something that is acceptable to do during the application process? Are profs ok with this, or do they resent the email intrusion? Should I instead contact the graduate dept head and ask for advice/permission?

Also, if I should contact them, is a simple introduction that I'm applying to their grad program and these are my current research interests enough? What are some things I should ask (almost all of the general program details are online)?

Whenever I have a test or something in class I can easily remember the material so I can get a passing grade on the test, but now that I am in college and am paying good money for it, I want to start understanding. So I wanted to know if anyone had any advice they could give me on how to better my understanding of subjects, or if you know of any websites that has information like that on it I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I am currently applying to graduate programs in English, but I don't want to waste my money and time (nor the program's time) if I don't have a chance of getting in. I have an extremely high GPA, GRE Verbal in 93 percentile, great letters of reference, and have presented at three conferences (2 local, 1 national). Assuming my personal statement and writing sample are fine, how likely is it that the following schools will admit me?

1. University of Pennsylvania
2. University of Virginia
3. University of Illinois--Urbana-Champaign
4. University of North Carolina--Chapel Hill
5. University of Texas--Austin
6.New York University
7. Vanderbilt University
8. Boston University

All of these schools are a good fit for my interests. Any advice is appreciated, even if it is only about 1 or 2 of the schools. Also, if some of these are long shots, any ideas on how I can improve to get in? Thanks.

I'm looking for a college, university or school that will give me a great experience. I don't want to go just for the sake of getting a degree, but for a unique experience. I want something more than the typical college education that you can get on your own by going to the library and studying. I'm into languages, anything artistic, writing, humanities, global studies, natural healing. . . lots of things. So if you have any ideas or suggestions, I'd really appreciate knowing about them! Thanks!

What do you think about going to medical school in the Carribean? Is it really that bad? Is it more difficult to get a good residency after graduation and do people look down on that school? In reality, affirmative action gets people into U.S. medical schools eventhought their stats may be lower. And a low ranking U.S. medical school vs Ross.... Is there a big difference??

I'm thinking about going to law school next year. Can you tell me about your experiences as a law student, what was your area of expertise, what you liked and what you didn't like?

Is there something I can do to prepare for law school, besides take the LSAT and read avidly? Are there things you wish you would have known or done before going into law school?
