I'm going into my junior year of high school this summer and was wondering, when trying to get a part-time, summer job as a 16 year old, what is the best way to seem distinguished and be preferable over the competition? #job-search #high-school #summer

I'm currently trying to decide on what I will major in and I'm confused by all of the different types and numerous options, how can I figure out which one would be best for me?

P.S I plan on working in Psychology or counseling #psychology #college-major #counseling

I hear potential students complain about why they are not in the career that they want to be in or complain about not making the amount of money they want to make. The main thing that irritates me is that they expect things to be given to them like society owes them. I was always taught that...

Everyone's path isn't the same. Some professions require a graduate school, but what about the ones that don't? What are some guidelines to figuring out if graduate school is necessary for your career path? #education #graduate-school

I attend the University of Michigan where I major in communications and minor in entrepreneurship. I've heard it said many times that entrepreneurship can't be taught & that you either have it or you don't. While to a certain extent I believe that statement, I also have greatly benefited from...

Should I visit before I apply, like in the summer after my junior year? Or after I apply and get accepted?
Because why would I visit a place that might not accept me? #campus-visit #college-admissions #college-selection

I know that public colleges in Illinois are required to accept 3's on AP exams, which I might have gotten, but I also hear that private colleges can offer more financial aid.
At which type of college would I end up saving more money? #financial-aid #ap-exam

I am planning to get a master's degree in speech pathology and am then considering continuing on to become an audiologist. I was wondering if most people continue to work as a speech pathologist while attending additional classes to become an audiologist or if they go to school full-time...
