How do I choose a college?
Due to my dream of becoming a professional ballet dancer, I did not even consider going to college at length until this year. In the IB program at my high school, surrounded by bright kids who already know their top 5 schools, I feel hopelessly confused. I don't know anything about where I want...

Should I keep dancing to get into college?
A loaded question, for sure. I've been dancing ballet since I was four and really loved it for most of my life. Like, really loved it - so much so that I moved across the country to live with my dance teacher and did online school in order to dance full time. But after two insanely amazing and...

Where are the best places for conducting scientific research?
I hope to enter the field (likely along the lines of genetic or cellular/molecular biology research) after college; however, I know that tons of others are hoping to do the same. I have also heard that scientific research is being less and less funded in the United States. With that reality...

How can I make money on the side during college when I don't have much time?
Between going back to school and my extensive family commitments (#specialneedsmom) I would love to find ways in my situation to make money (even just a little bit) in my spare moments.
Any thoughts?

What are the pros and cons of special ed homeschooling vs. special ed public school?
I am working on a second bachelors degree in mathematics education. I originally planned to teach junior high. I have a son who was is one-year-old and was just diagnosed with cerebral palsy. I can imagine how much fun it would be to home school and I have/will have lots of resources and...

Will I be able to take other fun classes in college that aren't related to my major?
I'm excited for college and for the new opportunity to learn! I'm just wondering, will I be able to take classes in a variety of topics that don't necessarily correspond to my major? Of course I'll take all the required classes, but will I be able to fit in others as well? I love learning...

How do I know if I've picked the right major?
I have decided to become an elementary education major. I love children, and I've always wanted to do something that would benefit others. However, I'm a bit worried I'll get bored studying to be a teacher all the time. I also love science, and at one point I considered becoming a medicinal...

why aren't the basics taught?
in the standard k-12 education system it seems that we are neglecting the basics. for example when I went through high school no class was taught about filing taxes actually keeping a budget, no class was taught on basic interpersonal communication, no class was taught on personal behavioral...

who decided that asking a bunch of kids fresh out of highschool to make a potentially 30,000$ decision to go to college?
most teenagers out of high school really have no idea what they are good at and what they want to do with their lives. and yet, at least in the united states, we beat it in to them that they need to go to college and get a degree without them having enough real experience to figure out what...

Is a Graveyard shift during high school a good idea?
I got offered a job with a late night shift but I don't know if it's a good idea working so late and going to school at the same time. Will the job experience be worth it or will that kind of schedule do more harm then good? #part-time #highschool #work-life-balance

How do I combine math and music and teaching?
I love math. Before I loved it in school, I would go work out math puzzles with my uncle Richard, compete and train with Math Counts, take the AMC tests, and calculate measurements with my dad in his workshop; now I take the hardest math classes at my school and tutor math through National...

I want to teach math, but I have knee problems that need a consistent stream of money to stay okay. Advice?
I am good at math. I get As in AP math classes and tutor and do competition math for fun. But honestly, my biggest joy in math is my tutoring. I love to teach. Nothing fires me up like a kid that hates math because a bad math teacher failed them and convinced them they're awful at it. I hate...

Are brick and mortar schools really better than online when it comes to getting a job?
I am been curious about the stigma attached to the new university models from adult or returning students who cannot attend a regular university class.
