Burlington, New Jersey

I am currently in the process of applying to colleges, and will probably be studying business. Within business school rankings, RI am seriously considering two schools. However, business, in my opinion, is a very experience-based subject. I believe that despite your education quality and level,...

I have been interested in pursuing a Biomedical Engineering major. However, people argue that biomedical engineering is the jack of all trades and master of none. This has been concerning for me as I would very much like to major in something and feel that I have mastered what I am learning...

These days the cost of college keeps rising and the rate of unemployment seems to be increasing as well. I also understand that it is up to students to find scholarships that fit their financial situation and academic standards. However, I feel as though if more and more employers care about...

Most schools don't have a pre-law major, so I was wondering if political science would be the best major to do to get into law school. If not what careers could I find in political science.

I'm possibly going to be teaming up with a sex therapist in her new private practice planning and running some sexuality-related workshops. I was wondering if anyone had tips on hosting these, such as: - How best to gather ideas? - What kinds of people-skills I might need? - How to keep them...

I really would like to own my own restaurant one day, but I know I need experience. So I am more than willing to start off working for someone else and maybe even a well known high end restaurant. #engineering #management #music #chef #culinary #food #catering #financial-planning

I am currently a freshman psychology major and I'm about to add a neuroscience double major because I think it might help me get into a better grad school. The problem is that I'm afraid that this double major might take time away that I could be using for internships/research, etc. It's...

I am very interested in economics and business but am not sure what major I want to specify myself to. I'm a junior in high school. I know still have time to decide but I want to have a general idea of the different majors. #economics #buisness #corporate-finance

I am going into my senior year of high school and need to start preparing for college applications. There are several universities that I have been drawn to, but after doing a ton of research, I could not seem to find a university that offers the whole package. I plan to go into the field of...

I am a senior in high school, I am interested in becoming a dental hygienist. Am i required to go to a community college for 2 years and then start a dental hygiene program? Or right from college i go to a dental hygiene program? #medicine #dental-hygienist

I am going into my senior year of high school and have recently discovered my passion in the field of pediatric occupational therapy. I am fully aware that I must attend graduate school and obtain at least a master's degree to be licensed in the United States. I have been looking into combined...

Is becoming a good writer extremely necessary in the business world, especially in fields such as finance because I do not understand why we need to take multiple English classes in college. #business #finance

I am currently a sophomore psychology major. I also am a student affiliate of the American Psychological Association. Each year, my membership comes with 5 free CE credits. They center around some interesting articles, so I'm certainly not going to let them go to waste. I do wonder, however,...

I'm going to a large college but want the teacher to know me not just be some number. #college #professor

As a high school student, I need to begin considering career options for the security of my future endeavors. I have always wanted to become a teacher, but I am not sure if I hold the right qualities that a teacher should have. I want my students to think that I am enjoyable, but I want them to...

I am thinking about majoring in Environmental Science with a minor in film and a minor in business. Does this seem absurd? #film #environmental-science

Is it appropriate to ask a professor who doesn't know you very personally, but you did well in their class? #college #career #internships #resume #recommendation #web-applications #job-application #personal-development

I would like to be a forensic scientist or something in that field and I'd like to learn more about my opportunities at each college #biology #forensic

I am going back to school and pursuing a degree in business administration. I've heard that it is better to specialize in an area such as office management or finance. #business #scholars

I would like to increase my chances for financial success and enjoy what I do. I am told to do what I love, do really well and I will make money at it. There is nothing that I absolutely love yet other than watching NBA basketball, YouTube and I love travel, although I've only vacationed with...

In high school, classes are separated into core classes (main subjects like Mathematics, English, Science, etc.) and electives (classes outside a required curriculum like Creative Writing, Band, Ceramics, etc.). Electives may not seem that important because they are more of a "just because"...

I'am college student at community college; Planning on transferring to a four year program to pursue a business degree. The reason why I ask this question is because many students graduate with a lot debt and finding a job in this economy is very difficult. I'am very worried about this issue...

I am very interested in all of these fields and would like to use them together to make the world a more peaceful place. #college #career #psychology #college-major #career-counseling #politics #international-relations #political-campaigns

I am a high school student born and raised in the United States of America. Recently, I have been interested in possibly working abroad. I know there are many challenging factors to consider when looking to work internationally, but I would specifically like to know what they are exactly....

I am a junior in high school. I am looking to apply to colleges next summer and just wanted to get a heads up to see what I was aiming for. #business #college-major #college-majors

I am currently a freshman Biology student who wants to do an internship with a healthcare company. Where should I start? #healthcare #job-application

Where I volunteer is a pretty impersonal place. I just go in unnoticed and barely get acknowledged by any staff. I understand that the staff is both busy and tired (this is an animal ER). I don't want to interrupt them, but how can I make good relations? The program offers letters of...

I have an area of interest that builds off of a specific subject matter that a professor teaches. The issue is he only teaches one class on that topic, and I have taken it already (a few terms ago). I would like to ask that professor to do an independent study class with me to build on this...

Some of my course requirements were fulfilled using AP credits, like biology and physics. However, will these AP classes still be considered as fulfilling the requirements when I apply to medical or graduate schools? Or do they not count these classes?

What hard skills and soft skills should everyone have on their resume or c.v.? #college #career #jobs #internships #higher-education #resume #interviews #job-skills #job-application

Due to my class schedule, each day I have a few hours between classes, and would love the opportunity to be able to earn some money. Several online sites seem very sketchy, and I would love to hear about some positive (or negative) experiences people have had.

In more detail, I would like to know what degree you were going for and why it interests you, as well as how much scholarship money you received and how you got it. I would also like to know if being an Engineer is worth carrying a bunch of stress. One more thing, if you could redo things in...

I am interested in the biomedical engineering field but I read online that majoring in biomedical engineering is not a good idea. I am wondering what other STEM related college majors could I apply for to become a biomedical engineer. #engineering #college-major #biomedical-engineering #stem

With midterms around the corner, I have become curious about what are important skills to have in today's work force. I know that time management is always looked for but I was curious about what else is looked for in a potential hire. #business #job-skills #personal-development

I am applying to a post-baccalaureate medical program which requires a pre-application including a statement of 'what prompted your desire to pursue medicine now.' Is there a formula for writing these statements? Should I write it like a cover letter? Should I be creative and tell a story? What...

Are there dorms for upper-level students? #college #medicine #graduate-school #college-bound #living #dorm

I am currently working really hard on my resume! I have taken it to workshops on my college campus and formatted it into many drafts. I am wondering if I should be changing it, what it says, or the way it is formatted slightly for each job based off of the context of the job I am applying to....

Do you have to go to college to be successful? #college #career

I need letters of recommendations! And besides that, I'd like to actually get to know a professional in my intended career path to learn about daily work-life. But, so far, none of the ones I've met have really 'clicked' with me. Not to say they were not kind (they certainly were!), but none of...

I know for internships there is usually a GPA cut-off. I am wondering if for real jobs, after you've had some experience, do they weigh your GPA as heavily when considering you for a position? #college #internships #job #gpa

i want to in the future be a nurse and taking college courses. #nursing

I am currently a freshman in psychology and neuroscience, but I'd like to start getting to know my professors now so that I have a solid network when it comes time to get some research experience. What are some key ways to connect with faculty, and how do you approach the process of finding...

I am very interested in nursing and honestly, super curious about all the different career options it can lead to. #nursing

I am currently in my junior year, a crucial time for many high school students around the world. I have to focus on keeping my grades up, while studying and taking the SATs. This is also the time I have to start applying to colleges and then hoping that they would later accept me as one of...

I want to be nurse and I think it is prudent to learn from others who are already "traveling that road". What advice can you give me? #nursing #nurse #pediatric-nursing

I am in a position where the degree I am receiving (BS, MS) does not directly apply to veterinary medicine. I have taken some pre-requisite classes ("pre-vet reqs"), but in some I have received less than stellar grades. I am also completely missing some pre-requisites like upper level biology...

I have had many small jobs over the summer, including lifeguarding and camp counselor. Many of my bosses in those jobs probably would not have much to say about me and I think that some of my professors at school or my swim coach would be better references. But they are not my boss and I have...

I'm currently an underclassman, however I'd like to gain some quality experience for grad school. Considering that I'm looking to become a professor who conducts research, I thought that in my case pursuing research experience might be the better call. Is this the correct type of thinking, or...

I'm a little worried that when its time to pick a major that a will choose the wrong one.If I do can a switch to a different one. #college
