I'm currently in 12th grade and looking for internships but a majority require some knowledge and usually require you to already have a Bachelors. I'm trying to get experience before I enter college and is hard to do so I'll have a better understanding as I take the Computer Science course....

I'm a second year computer science major in college, and I'm curious as to what a typical day of a software engineer is like. Do you usually work by yourself coding for 8 hours a day, or are you working together with other engineers to program something? #computer-science #computer-software...

I want to know if there is any way to shorten the amount of time spent getting a bachelor's degree. It would be an ideal situation for me because I will have 8 years of schooling afterwards to become a doctor. #medicine #university #bachelors-degree

I've heard the term mentioned briefly in passing and I wanted to understand what it means exactly and how this can benefit me. It would also be wonderful if someone could provide a list of universities that support federal work study or work study in general. #university #financial-aid...

I am interested in making a hobby out of these two things and I am wondering where exactly I can go to acquire such skills? If anyone knows anything on this subject it would be much appreciated for any pointers in the right direction! #extracurriculars #hobbies #cryptography #ciphers

I'm a sophomore in college, getting ready to apply for internships in corporate finance or banking or investing, and I want to be able to show finance companies/firms that I'm qualified to work for them. I want to teach myself financial modeling in excel. What kind of models should I try to...

I know that I need to start on something from now to spice up my university applications but there are a few problems. First of all, my parents are on a very limited budget so I need to be able to do something that isn't too expensive. Second, sports aren't my thing so the obvious answer is...

I am a freshman now but I already recognize two things. First of all my parents will be able to afford little to none of the expenses associated with university and the amount of education and money it would take to become a doctor. And second the costs to university for that long of a time...

I know that finding sponsors are really rare nowadays but if anyone on Career Village can help me find some way to gain a sponsor that would be amazing. #university #higher-education #sponsorship

I want someone I can depend on who can tell me how an IB education works, what are the benefits, is the time that it takes up worth it, etc. #high-school-classes #ib-diploma #ibdp

I love learning a lot so I want to find a way to take other classes that I can't fit on my school schedule that will be accepted for credits/ be put on my transcript at the very least. There are many websites that offer a great online education but I'm not sure which ones will match my specific...

I want to find ways to earn money on the side and a job is the best way to do that. However, my parents won't let me go out and get an actual job so I want to at least settle for an at home job where I can earn some money and don't require a minimum age like 16-18. If I start working from now...

I believe that majority of universities and colleges accept both the SAT and the ACT but what are the differences between them? I also don't know which one would probably yield a higher score for me...should I take both and see? #sat #act #test-planning #cons #pros #high-school-tests

No one on the internet seems to have a solid answer for this question so I am consulting the career village experts to help me way the pros and cons of working at both including the salary and work hours for both. #obstetrics #hospitals #ob-gyn #gynocologist #clinics #financial-planning

Next year I will be taking the PSAT as a preparation for the second time that I take the PSAT which will be in my junior year. I know that there are numerous benefits to taking the PSAT and scoring well on it. By a really good score I mean past the cutoff for the National Merit standard in...

I know that in order to get into a really good university for undergrad and graduate schooling a great score on the SAT is the best way to do that. However while everyone says that you should always aim high on the SAT and study A LOT they never say which study tools are best utilized to get a...

I'm applying for colleges right now, and I noticed that many of the colleges/universities that I am looking at implement different kind of systems, namely the quarter system and the semester system. In my current high school, I am in a semester system, and I think that the pace of my classes...

My parents at the moment have forbidden me from choosing a university that is more than an hour away due to the fact that I have to live at home with them. I want to know that should I get into a really good university that happens to be farther away how do I convince my parents that the best...

I want to learn a new language so I can potentially use it in my professional career. Is there a language that would be more useful in the business world? #business #career #entrepreneurship #language #foreign-languages #social-networking #public-speaking

I will be going to college next fall, and I'm not sure what to expect. Many of my friends who are in college tell me conflicting stories. Some of them say that they are having a great time and they go out a lot. Some of them tell me that it is very hard academically and that they often spend...

I want to be prepared for when I begin applying for scholarships and such as I am in high school now. #scholarships #college-essay

I am a high schooler who is interested in the Obstetrics and Gynecology fields and I want to see what it is like to work at a clinic that specializes in these things. #volunteering #obstetrics #gynecology

I am a freshman now and I want to know what sort of things I should be doing so that when it comes time to send out applications I will stand out among other applicants. #college-admissions #university-applications

My high school has recently started up a computer science program, and I'm thinking of taking a few classes. What kind of stuff do you do as a computer engineer? Should I get into it even if I'm not very technologically adept? #computer-science #computer-software #engineering

I am a second year student in college, and I was thinking about studying abroad after one of my friends told me she was planning on doing so the next year. I would love to find out more information about the program, but I'm not sure if it is the right decision. Are their specific majors that...

I live in California, and I am reluctant to go too far for college. I would like to stay relatively close to home, so I can visit my parents and come back home without having to travel too far. I'm interested in computer science and psychology, and I would like to do something in one of those...

I've been in college for one year, and I'm currently in my second year. College has been much harder on me than I expected it to be, and I often find myself spending the majority of my time studying for my classes. I want to go out and have fun, but I see my friends and classmates studying and...

I'm going to be applying to college next year, and for many colleges you need to specify which major you are applying as. However, I'm not sure what I want to be doing, since it's something I may be doing for the rest of my life. I'm interested in psychology and volunteering, but I don't know...

I am currently a freshman and I want to do my best to prepare for the expense as well as make myself stand out as a candidate when I apply to highly selective universities. #pre-med #college-admissions

I want to hopefully become an OB/GYN one day which is a doctor specializing in prenatal and women's health studies. This career path takes some 12 years of education to even become licensed so I need the least cost burdening method to paying off university. #university #scholarships...
