I am in 12th grade and a woman interested in entering the finance field. I have spent the past year doing a research project on the underrepresentation of women in the finance field and how it compares across major financial hubs in the US.

I've always been fascinated by makeup and fancy hair, but I've always thought that it was too physically hard to become a cosmetologist because you have to be standing all day, and my mom taught me that it isn't a high-paying job. So I just studied hard to become a doctor, because that job is...

My name is Theo, and I'm going into my freshman year at Cal Poly soon. I'm going into college with almost all of my general education done. So I'll be going into my major courses straight away in college. I know that engineers are less social than your average person, myself included. I was...

As someone who gets distracted easy how do you stay focused

You don't need my life's story, but I've had this dream since I came out of the womb. Maybe even before. And there is simply nothing I love doing more (then singing and songwriting)! Nothing at all! So, as an almost fourteen-year-old girl (am I allowed to expose this information, anyways?),...

I am a student at Chino High School, and through a unique Dual Enrollment program, I am on track to graduate with my High School Diploma, a College Diploma, and an Associate Degree in Studio Art all at 18 years old. Because of this program, my entire college education so far has cost me roughly...

Back in middle school, I was that kid whose entire personality was basically just my 4.0 GPA. But when I hit high school, life decided to give me a surprise 'promotion' to Chief Sibling Officer for my two younger brothers. If you’ve ever tried to negotiate with a 2-year-old or a 5-year-old, you...

I'm a sophomore in high school, and I'm contemplating what I should take in high school and college to prepare myself to start a business. I won't state what my business will be, but it's a one-stop shop for all things green to help make it easy for brands to be eco-friendly, and to make it...

I'm at that age where I'm starting to consider what I want to do with my life in terms of a career. Unfortunately, I feel like I'm not being sensible with my options. For example, I considered being an orthodontist, not because I like the idea of digging for treasure inside someone's mouth, but...

I think the question we can all relate to is: What can I do as an undergraduate to help with my future endeavors? I say future endeavors, just because it's more of a generality and applies to a wide variety of future goals or tasks. Subjects ranging from scholarships, resumes, long term...

I want to pursue a career in acting, but I'm not sure how to start. I'm 16 and in high school, so I'm quite limited in independence given that I have many responsibilities. (I feel that that load may lighten once I turn 18) I want to pursue acting as a bit of a side career just because I know...

OSCA, or "Orange County School of the Arts," is the school of my DREAMS. Honestly! I would love to go there for creative writing, and I've written countless albums and stories of my own! I just love writing! Quick problem, it seems super competitive, and let's just say I'm not the best student....

I've had a really tough school year. I've gone from having all A's to failing ELA, and I'd be lying if I told you it hasn't been taking a big toll on my mental health... because what can I say? My parents are disappointed in me, and I was basically their only hope for having a successful kid......

I'm a high school senior, and I don't know what's the best way to pay for a higher education

I'm about to graduate as a senior out of high school, from Sato Academy of Math and Science in Long Beach, California, and I feel like it's drained me. Will the summertime be a time for rejuvenation? Does the senioritis wear off in time for my freshman year of college? Or will I feel just as...
