  2. Now I have to wait until 8 weeks from Oct. 1 to see if I get in. This is going to be a bad wait. I know everyone else has to wait also, but I really don't think I have enough points to get in this term. And if I dont get in, we will probably move w...
  3. I worked so hard getting A's in the last few classes that I needed, and now I am moving. So I will have to apply at the CC that I originally went to 7 years ago in June and hope I can get in there.. I am beginning to think maybe I should just stop tr...
  4. Suggestions for term paper?

    I have found out in the past that if I choose something controversial to write about, I usually get a better grade. Assisted suicide, ritalin (under or overuse), Rock Hudson (gay actor) Legalize marijuana- I have gotten A's on all of those. Hope th...
  5. Advice on Obnoxious student...
