Hey just looking for some advice. I plan on being a singer. I've been told I have a good voice by my music teachers and I've been writing songs/planning ways to get my name out etc. But since there are millions of people after the same thing I thought I should get a college degree to fall back on if I don't make it (and looking at propabilities I won't). I'm convinced that out of the two courses I could get a degree in either (i.e. the difficulty of the courses is not for discussion) so I need to pick between a Physics course or a Law course.

It's between those two because Physics is my best academic subject and Law because I'm under the impression that I'd easily be able to get a law related job with a degree.

I'm leaning more towards physics because of my abilities in it but I'm not sure how easy it would be to find a job in that field.

Sorry about writing so much, anyone care to empart wisdom apon me?

I'm going to college for my bachelor's in criminal justice because I love psychology, sociology, criminology, and I love to write, so that basically fills that need. I'm wanting to become a paralegal or lawyer eventually. However I also have another "nagging" thing I like, medical science. I have always liked helping people and have really strong hands(even though I'm little), and have been told for years that I should become a massage therapist. Well, I'm going to a chiropractor for relieving pressure in my lower back and also my neck(focusing on my sinus cavity). Anyways, he mentoned to me about massage therapists after I feigned an interest and he was saying that they're very marketable around chiropractors. I'm still wanting to get my bachelors, but there is some schools near me that offers massage therapy certificate. I'm kind of confused, I am a waitress right now and love working with the public. Any advice?

I need to write a curriculum vitae (or c.v. for short) for a professor's recommendation for graduate school. It's for a library science program that I particularly like.

Here's the scoop: I haven't written any papers or books or whatever that would look good on a c.v. However, I work for a law library, which should help.

Are there any standard models for a c.v. for someone with no or little experience? This is my first time writing an academic resume.

Thanks for your help!

Does anyone know where I can find an online list of the top hospitality schools in the United States? Private or Public... I'm looking at Penn State U-Park, Mercyhurst College, and Robert Morris University. I know they all have good programs... I am shooting for Penn State but until I know if I am in or not I wanna compare my back-up schools that I'm already accepted to. Also I know that Robert Morris has lower standards as far as grades when it comes to acceptance than Mercyhurst, but I really would like to know (if I don't get in to PSU) where it would look better to be coming from once I graduate?
So list anyone? Please? Esp private cuz I can't find an inkling of Mercyhurst or RMU anywhere but their own sites....

I was two courses shy of my BS in Econ and ended up with a BA. I have several courses of advanced math (above and beyond multi-variate calc), statistics, and dynamic and linear analysis. If I would have taken the programming course and additional science course needed to graduate with a BS, I would have had to delay my grad program (MBA) for a year. Now I am regretting that decision. I have found that even my professors in grad school automatically assume that my quantitative background is sub-par due to the BA rather than BS. Although I enjoy proving them wrong, I worry that the BA will affect my future job search (I want to go into a quantitative field). Is there any way for me to get a BS after the fact? My MBA is in Operations Mgmt, but the bulk of my quantitative coursework was completed in undergrad. Any ideas?

I'm in my final yaer in high school after which i'll be heading off for the university. My U.M.E ( University Matriculation Examination) Is just around the corner but the problem is I'm still confused about the Course i'm going to study. I could easily go ahead and do anything but i want to study something that'll lead me to a career with which i'll be fulfilled and happy. I also need enlightenment on different courses so that my options'll not be too limited. Already i'm a science student so the course has to be science oriented. Alternatively, i also do economics so i could also have a course related to that. Right now i offer Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Maths, Geography, Economics, Agricultural science, English and a nigerian Language. So I need a corse that a combination of these subjects'll enable me to offer. Please i'm in desperate need of advice.

I plan on moving to another state and plan to go to college, how long do I have to wait to get in-state tuition rates rather than out-of-state? I heard it's 2 years minimum which sucks because time is of the essence. Is this accurate or not?

I go to UCLA and I averaged a 4.00 in my freshmen and sophomore years, respectively. My first quarter of junior year (the one that just passed), I averaged a 3.9. I'll probably end up with that sort of GPA by the time I graduate.

With such a high GPA, what do I need to get on the LSAT to get into a prestigious law school such as Berkley, UCLA...etc?

In general, do universities often raise their cut-off averages every year? (do they become more competitive?)

The reason why I'm asking is because I want to take a year off after highschool (I'm in my graduating year). However, I don't know if I should apply to a university this year and try to defer my acceptance, or if I should just apply next year. I'm afraid that it may be more difficult for me to get into university if I apply a year later..

I'm not sure about going to college or not. I'd like to... But I don't think I can afford it without going way into debt. My parents have money, but they've nearly disowned me--not because of me. It's a matter of mental illness, abuse and denial. My mother will tell people that she will. She's lying. She's nuts... No, he won't get involved either. They never follow thru--it's all just an act.

Anyway, I've learned I can't depend on them for even basics, let alone college. I'm basically living on my own out of their basement. I started my own web business back when I was too young to get a job and have saved everything I could. I have $6,509.

I'm 17, a junior in high school and I get all As and Bs. So I'm going to be on my own, and I don't know if I want to risk everything I've saved, you know? It's not going to be like I'm going to have them to fall back on.

For my goals, college isn't absolutely nessicary, but wouldn't hurt. But I'm scared I'll end up dead broke.
