I've heard of people agreeing to teach on (for example) an army base for say two years, and the government forgives their student loans. Does anyone have any info on this?

If you go to university I wouldn't mind some people giving me their views about their experiences, problems and general uni stuff. I'm not asking for much. I'd just like to know what I might be getting myself into. Any advice also?

I'm nervous and excited at the same time; it's brilliant...
Thanks!

Yes, I know that "I'm too young" and need to attend college first, but I've been working on about 5-6 problems at a time in the Kaplan’s LSAT study guide. It takes me about six minutes to figure some problems out in the Reading Comprehension; they are no where near easy as the SAT problems. I’m slightly concerned about this, but know that I am still in high school and have time to improve. Does anyone know where I can find some good practice problems on the internet/ or give me some tips?

Thanks

Eros is Sexual Love.
Philia is platonic love.

Under the definition of Philia doesn’t that mean that Pedophilia SHOULD mean “Healthy, Platonic Love” & not “Unhealthy, Sexual Love”?

Doesn’t that mean that words like Pedophilia SHOULD be Pedoeros?

I had very good grades during my first semester in college. However, math has always been one of my main weknesses. I had an A in political science, which is writing intensive course. I had an A- in english, an A- in medical terminolgy and a B in math. I had to take a basic math class because I didn't meet certain standars that were required by the college I go to. Next semeter I will be taking Math 105 because is pre-requisite for my major. I'm majoring in Radiology, I must maintain a competitive GPA to get accepted into the Radiologic technology program. I'm also gonna be taking Algebra along with English 111 and Anatomy. I think I can handle all of these subjects if I carefully organize my study time. Radiolgy is a growing field and it's highly in demand. i must maintain a good GPA or otherwise I will be placed on the waiting list. This process might take a year or more and I don't have time to kid around. I want to graduate as soon as possible. I go to a CUNY college in New York.

I bought a textbook through a vendor online and found out after recieving it that it was an examination copy. It's so tiny and I'm not even sure if it had all the necessary information. Can I still be able to use this through my course or do I have to purchase another book? I spent a fair amount on this book and felt like I was scam.....
