Is there a best time to study?

When is the "best" time to study? I have class, then lab right after. Should I take a mental break after lab, or should I study right then so it is "fresh" information? Is there a best time to study? #nursing #college #nursingschool #student-life #studying-tips #study-habits

Is the curriculum for a Business Major the same at all schools?

If my major is Business with an emphasis in Marketing would the classes be identical at all colleges with that major offered? Does the higher priced school guarantee a better wage when I enter the work force #business

Is it better to study a career that pays you more money, or a career that you actually enjoy?

The reason for this question is because this is the question I hear the most, because many people tell me that you won't go anywhere if you study what you "enjoy" and or "love" if it doesn't give you a decent amount of money, and I also hear that if you work in a career that gives you a lot of...

I am interested in #political-science, but I am not sure how I can get started while still in high school. I have already taken all of the suggested classes and joined the clubs, but I would like to do more.

What happens if I regret my college major?

I am interested in both #political-science and #music-education, but they are two very different majors and career paths. I am afraid that if I commit to one, I will regret my choice later in life. #college-major
