What do I have to do and know to study abroad in college next year?
The studying at sea and going to multiple places sounded nice but I would also like to do studying in Australia or Europe. Who do I go to for information at my school? What needs to be done to make it possible? I am going to be a freshmen in college in September and I was thinking of doing studying abroad either my sophomore or junior year. #studyabroad #college #help #australia #study #information #travel #education
What should a pre-law student pursue in his/her undergraduate to bolster law school prospects?
Ex's: studying for LSAT continuously, joining any pre-law organizations, meeting with law professors, meeting with lawyers, building a network, interning at appropriate organizations, etc. I am not sure which of these activities is worth while whereas others might just be a waste of time or a fulfillment of my "preparation mindset" for law school without any actual benefits. Thanks! Carson #law #pre-law #law-school #government #study #politics #graduate-school P.S. I will be attending Yale University in the fall, enabling me to take some cross-over classes with the law school if that is relevant at all.
Any suggestions on memorizing overwhelming amounts of information effectively and efficiently?
No matter how much I try to prep early for my tests, I always become overwhelmed when studying for my tests for the sheer amount of things I need to memorize in a short amount of time. It doesn't help that my professors would only tell us what topics are on the exams less than a week before the actual test date. I've tried breaking down the amount I need to learn per day, but I'm still overwhelmed, and I'm the type of person that takes a while before fully understanding concepts or ideas. Any suggestions on how to study more efficiently and effectively in these instances? #Study #Study-tips
Is it possible to learn scientific terms in another language while studying science in English?
I am already bilingual (speak English and Spanish), but my Spanish-speaking abilities still lie a lot more on the informal/conversational side rather than formal/technical. I know that just knowing another language will benefit me no matter what, but I feel that it won't help me as much in my career unless I can actually speak professionally in either language. Is there a feasible way of learning the new terms in Spanish alongside the English ones without feeling like I'm overloading my brain? Or should I leave that more for outside the school year/after graduating? #science #stem #women-in-stem #language #foreign-languages #study #studying #studying-tips

How do you propose the idea of an independent study with a professor you don't know?
I have an area of interest that builds off of a specific subject matter that a professor teaches. The issue is he only teaches one class on that topic, and I have taken it already (a few terms ago). I would like to ask that professor to do an independent study class with me to build on this topic, but I don't know him personally or even casually. #college #professor #communications #academic-advising #study
