Hi, to whom sees this question.
I am a newcomer to Canada who have been here for 10 months. I am an ESL student now studying in Grade 10. I start to think about how can I get in a great school in North America. I am not the best student in our school, but I am excellent. I really expect to be the most excellent figure. But I have no idea what should I focus on. What fields of knowledge I must be know(and good at)? What do I need to start to prepare? Tell me everything I need to do for getting into a great university and improving my life. Tell me every detail. I'll do whatever I need to do no matter how hard is it. My family is not rich at all, we borrow some money to support our family actually.
I will be very grateful if you could provide precious information.
Thank all of you who see my question.
p.s. Tell me some material or books I need to read. Tell me some places I should visit(or work) for improving myself. Thank you.

I know actuaries usually don't go for an advanced degree, but I really want to have one. Besides applying for the Master's program in Actuarial Science offered by Columbia or other schools, are there any other programs that can complement the work of an actuary? Or the choice doesn't matter at all? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

A friend of mine is planning to enrol in the university soon and he planned to take up Computer Science.

The problem is that there are a lot of universities in the world and he does not know which one of them is a good university. As taking up a course in a foreign university is costly, it is of utmost importance for him to select a good university.

Can anyone suggest any university that is good in Computer Science or Computing? I would also like very much to know how a good university conducts its course. How are their courses structured?

My friend has received complaints from his peers that the way some universities conduct their courses are ridiculous. It seems some universities over emphasised on programming in their assignments.

Hi! I am currently a freshman at a university in Texas, and I am having a rather difficult time deciding on my major. I am actually stuck between two: communication and mathematics.

I really enjoy both fields, and I know both of them offer a lot of different opportunities in the job market. I've taken courses in both and done pretty well in all of them, so I am rather confused.

With my communication degree, I'd like to go into television broadcasting, public relations, marketing, or teaching. In contrast, with a math degree I'd like to teach or do something else; I know the degree lends itself to a lot of different things.
I would like to know which one you think is the best.

Which one do you recommend and why?

Thanks!

Hi,

I am woking in a small company in india. I've 5 years of exp. & getting a decent salary(above 7L). But I dont want to get stuck into common companies.

Does is makes sense to do MS in Computer Science at this stage?
I am 26 years old by the way.

What should I do? I want the best out of my career.

Thanks,
Karan.

Have no clue what they are or how you do them in MLA format. Our English teacher printed a example of how to do one when your citing a book.

Author's Last Name.Page #

But how do you cite internet pages?Especially ones with no author?

Do I put like a (1) after a specific qoute I used than have that referenced to the "1" on my work cited page?

I know, it's kind of a cliche question.

I'll be a junior transferring from a large university [18,000] to a smaller university [8,000]. I found it difficult to meet people at my old university b/c it was a huge party school in the south that had a very antagonistic student section in the sports arena's. I'm a pretty chilled out person from the NYC tri-state area, and I don't get super hyped up about that kinda stuff. I have lived a very independant lifestyle in an apartment for the past two years, but now I am returning to a dorm for the first time since my freshman year. I will be living with approx. 4 other girls who I won't know. I won't have a car to get off campus. I'm nervous that the kids my age will have already formed tight cliques. I would like to join clubs b/c I have many interests, but I'll be at a loss if the clubs are lame or too clique-y....



So, should I do what freshman usually do, even if it's kinda lame to do all that as a junior?

I was always a good student, I got into a good university on a scholarship, studying computer engineering. However, I couldn't study because I could never figure out why I should get a degree.

Why is it? Is it to get a job? I've worked on a lot of commercial projects, and I got those jobs based on pure talent and skill, nobody asked for my degree, and I got paid as much as a "real" engineer would have.

And if I don't want to get hired, I don't need a degree to set up my own company, do I?

So why does everybody always say that you need to have a degree? So I'm thinking, wouldn't it just be a better idea to quit school and spend my time doing something more productive?

I am 21 years old and I want to move to nyc to go to college. I am interested in studying accounting. I have been thinking about Baruch, Hunter, Long Island University, and maybe Berkeley. I am not from NYC - I am from PA and I would like to go away to college.

Okay, a few questions. First off, does anyone know anything about housing for any of those colleges? Would it be weird if I was living in the dorm at 21? I was thinking about an apartment, but I don't think I could afford it. Any recommendations?

Second, any college recommendations? Honestly I don't really know any colleges out there so I don't know what is good and what isn't.

Third, any suggestion?

My reason for moving is that I just graduated from college in PA with a degre as a high school history teacher. I want to get away a bit first before I start my career.

I am a bicurious female looking to meet new people and move somewhere where noone knows me. Please - I need some advice.
