Also, do you think there are any good ones? What are the pros and cons? Would you ever attend one? Would you ever hire people from one? What are you experiences with them?

I am wondering how you feel about American Universities and colleges compared to any other country. It seems so many foreign people want to enter an American University. I mean people from (I know the scope on these places is different) India, France, Africa, China, and many other countries strive to get into American Universities. But do they do the same in other countries like Japan or the UK? Why do you think this is so? I have been in school for a long time taking many different degrees at many different universitys for work. Most of my experience comes from IT and Engineering (and a bit of business) just to give you an idea of my thoughts.

1. Go to college and obtain a degree or your life will be absolutely miserable. You can't get a half way decent paying job anymore without a degree. Employers will demand degrees for jobs that don't even pay much or require degrees. It doesn't matter what your degree is in...just get one. Get a degree in "Wine Tasting" if you have to...just get one. There's a position and pay ceiling in the workplace for non-degree holders. You will not break that ceiling without a degree. Get a degree, and break the ceiling. You don't want to be stuck in one low pay bracket. That will happen if you don't get a degree. Uhh, degree holders will compete for jobs with non-degree holders. Who do you think will get the job? Yap, you guessed it...the degree holder. Society is obsessed with degrees, you have to feed the beast by getting a degree or you won't be valued, and you'll live a miserable life. Satisfy all the college requirements no matter what you have to do. BEG, BORROW, OR STEAL...JUST GET A DEGREE. Degree holders are the masters. Non-degree holders are the slaves. Would you rather be a slave or master? Well, without a degree, you might as well be the slave. Degree holders are valued. Non-degree holders are not valued. If you don't have a degree, you're screwed. You might as well be dead if you don't have a degree.

2. Join the military (not the best thing to do) if you can pass the ASVAB, get through basic training, and technical school. The Air Force should be your top choice. The Air Force has higher standards of living. Actually, they have higher standards of everything.

I wish to be accepted and enter the Johns Hopkins Medical school, but this school is one of the best medical schools a person can attend, and I don't know if I have the necessary prequisites to be accepted. I heard that in order to be accepted into any medical school, I should attend one of the best colleges I can get into to get my bachelors degree, but the college I will be attending is not what you can call a "hard to get into school". Almost anyone can get into this school. Do I stand a chance at medical school? Will hard work ultimately help me get into Johns Hopkins?

I live in Mumbai, Maharshtra. I got good marks in my HSC exams but scored bad marks in MHT-CET. Due to which I'll get admission in a good college for B.Sc IT or B.Sc Computer Science, but, I'll get admission only in a b-grade or c-grade college for B.E (Computer engineering). I really wanted to be B.E. since a B.E. degree is better but I know that I'll get a bad college. So, which degree should I pursue. What should I do? Also,is it better to do B.Sc I.T. or B.Sc. Computer science? Which will help me get a better job? Should I do any side courses to get better jobs? If yes, then which ? Please guide me. thanks

I am a recent high school graduate and I was thinking of majoring in pharmacy. I was wondering if any Pharmacists out there could tell me if I should and could do it. I've had good grades throughout high school and I am willing to study in college. I want to enter a health care career, but I don't like needles very much. I thought pharmacy would be an excellent health care career and I could make competitive wages.
I'm looking for a career where I wouldn't have to own my own business, and could possibly work part time if I had children, but could make it on my own if I didn't get married. I also want a job that's going to be exciting and challenging. Is Pharmacy for me?

I have been working since I was 16 (I'm 20 now) so I already have a resume. However, being the oldest child in my family, I am a little confused about what I should try and add to it before I graduate university to ensure that I have a good chance at getting a relatively good job.

I'm a liberal arts major, so this even even more important for me! So far I volunteer on a crisis hotline, have a summer internship, am studying abroad for a semester, have been a teaching assistant, and I am going to be a writing/statistics tutor. (My GPA is very good, too, in case you were wondering- I also go to a major state university). Any suggestions?

My friend is going through a situation in which a person was put into a position in the university which the school is saying he needs to approve dissertation but it is not stated in the graduate catalog and no student was given written documents about this change. This person is requesting to make changes towards my friends dissertation but in the catalog the dissertation is only supposed to be between the student, his committee, the dean, and the graduate school. The committee has signed off on his dissertation but this person refuses to sign finding anything he can to withhold him from finishing. What should he do?
