I'm looking to go into a career in engineering, and I've applied to UW, but am also applying to WSU as a backup. My GPA is well above 3.5, so I know that I can get into UW for sure (they have guaranteed admission for those with a GPA of 3.5 or greater). If I don't make it into engineering at...

I often listen to power metal or classical music while doing homework or studying. I'm starting to think that it might be distracting. Is listening to music while studying more harmful or beneficial? #music

I look at all the job postings periodically to get a sense of what type of accounting I want to do when I get my bachelor's degree. They all require experience to start. Is it really necessary to have the experience if you've earned a degree? #accounting

I'm 20 and have been enrolled in community college since I was 16. It's been a roller-coaster as far as my academic performance; I've done well in many classes and failed just as many. I think the biggest factor of my failures is my tendency to procrastinate when I get overwhelmed or stressed....

According to a little homework I've done, reading online about what it takes to become an entrepreneur, you don't need to have a fresh, or ground-breaking idea to become a rich entrepreneur (Wal-Mart, Starbucks). I would like to do something that correlates with my passion for all things good...

With the internet vastly available, anybody can post their art online and try to make a buck, but most rarely do. What's a good "old-school" strategy to start selling art? I know that a lot of people would prefer to support a local artist than buy from a mainstream store like IKEA or Target....

Rent prices in my area are through the roof, and I feel as though it would be much wiser to invest in property, such as a condo. Is it required to have had your own lease prior to buying a house, or how can you get around it?

I've always been interested in Sociology and when I took my 101 class there was a brief discussion of gender and feminism and ever since then I have wanted to take the class specific to Gender and Women's studies. I find it interesting because of how different views can be. If I pursue a degree...

I'm planning on majoring in psych but I don't know very much about the jobs in that field. I'm also not sure about graduate school so I would love to know about possibilities that don't require a p.h.D. #psychology #job-search #after-college
