What careers make the most money and what is a day in the life of a film actor?

I am unsure which career I want in my future, but I do know that money is a big deal for me. I was told that a lot of jobs include science and math and I am not very strong in those subjects. What kinds of careers pay well but do not require science and math? Also, I probably will not get a...

Does a lack of summer internship threaten you're success in applications after graduation?

A summer internship during college is highly coveted but obtaining one is highly competitive and very difficult. Thus, by not having one in your second year of university, are you jeopardising post-university plans? Or will finding an alternative job or volunteering role be as useful? #college...
