* get prepared as soon as you can, with a special study area. Get all your supplies, books, etc all set up before. I was still buying stuff the first week of school. Not ideal, financially it had to be that way. I felt so unorganized and can't wa...
Hello there. I just got into ARC, so we are probably in the same area. A friend of mine was at Sierra and she got a "c" which they consider too high of a grade to repeat, so she had to retake it at ARC. That might be an option for you. Your defini...
