I'm asking this question because generally full-time students tend to find it difficult to balance well between school and work. #college #jobs #student #time-management #productivity

If I plan to go to law school a few years after graduation and I am a rising senior now, what should I be doing now to prepare for applying?

I want to take a break and get work experience before I apply. I am a little worried about recommendations and whether waiting a couple years is fine. #attorney

Im a chemical engineering student in my senior year and it seems that technology and businesses are growing outstandingly but at the same time social media says that right now there are no jobs out there. It will be really helpful to get intel from a real professional.

What do you suggest doing when the majors you're interested in are vastly different and require very different schooling?

I am interested in early education or being a pediatrician. I do not know what type of schooling I'll be able to afford and do not have enough basis to make a decision likely until a few years into college. Unfortunately, these two majors seem to require extremely different schooling and I do...

Does nursing ever offer any moments that completely make you feel fulfilled, or does the job become repetitive and mundane as many other people feel about their jobs.?

It may sound too head-in-the-clouds, but as I've been told time and time again, "do what makes you happy." In a job that seems to require stoicism and perhaps some not-too-happy moments, by the time you perhaps feel that you have become numb to the environment, is it still fulfilling? Why does...

Does a college's rating really matter?

I know there's a lot of emphasis on going to a well-rated and prestigious school, but does it really matter in the end? Do schools with better ratings offer better courses? Will I learn anything more there than at a lesser known school? #college
