  17. Obese children...my rant

    But, here's the thing. Those parents that you are judging are often products of how they were raised too. Someone has to stop judging, stop saying things like "just stop overeating" or "I overcame...

  24. Not Sure How To Proceed

  25. How to study for the GRE

    Kaplan vocabulary flash cards worked well for me. I used Kaplan for math and did well there too, but it was the old format (thank goodness!). I took several practice tests. I even downloaded some...
