Batavia, New York

I appreciate law and am very interested in the fields of both political science and business. I intend to pursue both as an undergrad in a double major. I also attend to go to law school, however am not sure that I would practice as a true lawyer.

As a New York native, state education would be a cheaper option. However, my #1 choice school is a private school in Pennsylvania. Do employers have a preference of which of these schools they would rather have someone go to? #college #future

The constant hours of your nose in all sorts of textbooks could be grueling, but does doing an extracurricular activity (band, sports, clubs, etc.) help or hinder your success in college? #college

I'm trying to do better with my studying and need some advice on what may or may not work.

I originally wanted to go to medical school after college to be a physician but realized that is in fact not what I wanted. I wanted to be more behind the scenes now. I do know that I want to be in medicine though. Anyone have ideas for possible professions? My current major is Biology....

I love physics and study it on my own time, but I'm bored with what we're learning in class. How do I make it through another half year of a subject I love but a class I'm not into?

I'm starting college in Fall 2018, and I'm going to be playing Division 1 soccer at the school. I was just wondering if anyone has advice or any tips that would help with time management?

I've wanted to study engineering, more specifically mechanical, since before I entered high school. And although I still love the discipline and have no doubts about my desire, I know that one reason I like the path is that it is relatively secure. But recently, I've had a dream of going into...

I am currently enrolled in a Business Administration program so that I can turn my talent of hair braiding and styling into my business and become a salon owner. I am unsure of all of risks associated with owning a business, let alone a hair salon. #beauty-industry #beauty #businessownership...

I'm looking for tips on time management, maximizing storage space and saving money while in college. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I saw Verizon's Youtube ad for their #weneedmore campaign about providing more kids the resources needed to pursue science. As a student, how can I contribute?

I want to pursue science, but I also want to contribute to bridging the current science-policy divide we're facing in America. Are there any careers that deal specifically with these issues? AAAS maybe?

I know we're only about 20% of the field, but I'm wondering what the advantage will be with regard to undergrad admissions.

#college-admissions #college #college #physics

If I were to apply early somewhere (with a binding agreement) and then accepted, would I have the opportunity to turn them down if it turns out I can't afford it? What's the protocol?

I'm afraid I'll be matched with someone really annoying in college. Will there be opportunity to switch rooms? What other ways could I manage this situation?

My high school teachers play the fear mongering card every time we incorrectly staple something or use a purple vs a blue or black pen. Will this result in a terrible punishment in college as all my teachers say?

I'm looking to go into physics/astrophysics, but I'm also an avid theatrical actor. Are there any universities that are strong in both?

I feel like it could be useful, but I'm not sure. If so, what's the recommended length? How would it work with an online/Skype interview?

I'd like to get more involved in the political aspect of life, and particularly science advocacy. What are some things I can do as a student that might make a difference?

I'm a bit unsure as to the exact style in which admissions are expecting essays. I was told to make them both personal and professional, but I'm not quite sure how to integrate the two. One person said I should avoid contractions at all costs and another said it is most important that the...

I really don't have enough time to schedule all my college interviews before early deadlines. Can I schedule them after I've submitted my applications?

My family is sacrificing a lot by sending me to college and of course I feel guilty. I feel pressured to try my best and excel as a student, but doesn't everyone? Financial assisntance is part of the road to success and if going to college doesnt pay off the debt that it may put you in, can it...

A friend is concerned about choosing the right college when the time comes. There's a conception that the best premed programs feed into the best med schools feed into the best residencies, etc. and if you don't jump on the bandwagon immediately you're done for. Any advice to offer? #college...

I'm considering a career in civil engineering, but I have no light on exactly what they do in a building project. #engineering #civil-engineering

Let's be honest, the oil industry is pretty rocky right now, should I consider a career in the field if I think it might be unreliable? #engineering #career-choice #oil

Genetics is an interesting topic to work with.

I am still very young but when I become older I would like to start a family and get to spend quality time with my spouse and children, is that possible with this career? #sports #sports-management #entertainment #children #sports-media

It seems most advertising/media features people with bodies that don't represent the general public. I know every person is different, but one body type seems to be the dominant factor. For women and girls, the media believes they should be thin and pretty. For men and boys, they need to be...

In college, that is. #college #college-major #money #college-bound #money-management #expense-management

I'm currently interning within a research program. Just curious if I can ask the professor who accepted me for a college recommendation, or if they're typically only written by one's teachers. #college #teaching #teacher #professor #college-bound #recommendation

It's often the case that I know all the material for a certain class, but do not have enough time for the test to showcase my knowledge. How do I get faster without sacrificing accuracy? #student #studying-tips #testing

Some of my classmates struggle with concepts I'm familiar with. I'd easily be able to help them, but don't want to seem too forward. What's the best way to offer assistance without coming off as condescending or otherwise? #teaching #student #university-teaching #tutoring #peer-tutoring

Considering a double major. Considering. As a person double-majoring, do you have time for anything else? #college-major #majors #college-majors #double-major #extracurriculars #choosing-a-major

Junior year is fast approaching, and I've been having trouble with sleep. Not getting to sleep, no, but waking up. During the school year in particular, if I am tired I will drop dead asleep. No exceptions. This often leaves work unfinished and/or causes lateness the following morning. How do I...

This is namely geared towards professors/researchers. Not sure why it would be, but I've heard conflicting rumors.

I do not plan on attempting to place out of Physics 100 in college (every person I've encountered on visits has dissuaded me for some very good reasons). Though I am curious as to how helpful AP physics will be/how much of the same material will be covered. Can't seem to tell from course...

Considering that this is a likely profession for what I am interested in, what is your experience being a professor? Has living on/near campus and teaching kids been worth it? I'm particularly interested in research. #professor #research

This has been bugging me. #college-major #professor #phd #science-phd

I'm in high school and currently pursuing astrophysics. I've been involved in some programs and internships and I think research is what I want to do. Most people tell me the only jobs in this field are university professors, NASA paper-pushers, and Bill Nye. Is it possible to have a job...

I understand that it often depends on where it is being distributed. However, I seem to have too much pertinent information to fit on a single page. In general, is it better to include diverse aspects of your being, or focalize around that field in which you are interested? #resume...

I am interested in pursuing astrophysics and computer science. The colleges I'm looking at with appealing programs in those fields range from CalTech to Penn State. If it does come down to a decision, what is your opinion on larger vs. smaller institutions? The former tends to have better...
