Question: I recently obtained my J.D. degree. However, my grades were not that hot. However, I definitely feel in retrospect, if I were given the second chance to "redo" law school, I'd be able to do much better. I was just wondering if I had the chance to pursue another J.D. degree, at another school - and thus as a result had another chance to do better and get good grades - would that be a good idea? On one hand, I know what good grades can open up for you - clerkships, increased job opportunities, or a path in teaching; on the other hand: is getting 2 J.D.s a good idea? Is it career suicide? Will people look upon it strangely? Is it just so abnmoral/unconventional that it may be negative, even though you would be able to get better grades the second time around? Just wondering what other practitioners, professors, students, etc. thought about this?

I am applying to law schools this summer, anyone out there have an opinion on whether or not it is beneficial to visit law schools that I want to attend. Does it help with admission if the schools do not offer evaluative interviews?

what did you or do you do when you become so bored and disengaged with school... what made or makes you continue on... what advice would you give to someone who just didn't want to do it anymore like me... I hate just going to school, its not enough for me I get bored and just tune out, its like I need more than just school or something.... so basically how did you make it through college when you didn't really want to be there?

will you show your GMAT score to a potential employer during a job interview just to let them know that they shouldn't judge you based on which school you are attending now (or graduated from)?

*I understand that a person's GMAT score isn't the most important aspect to getting a job. However, by showing a potential employer that you are just as academically gifted as a person who attended a prestigious B-school will definitely help your chances of being hired. Correct?

THe MA program I'm looking into applying to says this:

"Language Requirement: At the beginning of the 3rd semester of study, MA students are required to satisfy a French Language Requirement demonstrating a reading knowledge of French."

So are they only going to only accept people into this program if they have French courses on their Undergraduate transcript? AND say I did get accepted. How am I supposed to learn enough French in 2 semesters to satisfy this requirement?

For example, do they look at you differently if you were secretary of a club instead of president of a club? Or do they just see president, vice president, secretary, treasurer as equal leadership positions? I always thought that even though they have different titles, it still goes back to being a leadership position, it's just that having a specific title gets a specific job done. In clubs and student councils that I'm in, the president of the club/council isn't always the leader. Sometimes, our treasurer or secretary will do more work in terms of being in that influential leadership role and delegating tasks. I've been the secretary three times for a clubs, my class, and soon, the entire school. Will this decrease how UC admission officers view my leadership capability? I really want to go to UCLA or UC Berkeley and I heard they tend to focus a lot on leadership ability.

What is the best major for someone like that?

He will be going to trade school after graduation to learn car mechanics or surveying or something like that.

In the meantime, he has tried computer engineering and now civil engineering, and it's not working out. He is not successful at these majors.

He's gone to college for 3 years now, although I think he has a sophomore standing at present.

Any suggestions on a college, also? The one he is at now is too hard for him. He got a 21 on the ACT in math, and just a composite score of 22 on the ACT total.

I would like to pursue a career as a librarian and I found a distance learning program for an MLIS that I like. The problem is that the program requires a 3.0 GPA. Mine is a 2.81; two-tenths away from the 3.0.

Now I really, REALLY would like to enroll in this master's program particularly because some of my co-workers are enrolled in it (the satellite campus is closer to where I live). Should I give up and forget graduate school or is there a way to get in (good GRE scores, etc)?

Frankly, I'm worried that they won't accept me and I'd have to find some way to boost the GPA even though I'm already graduated.

Any suggestions are welcome. No smart alecky questions, please.

The cost to live in the dorms for my freshman year would be around $6880. I have heard great things about living in the dorms, but the thing is that my house is only 5 minutes away from the college I am going to. I don't think I can justify paying $7000 a year just to live in a dorm if my house is that close. What do you think?
