What would be the best degree to combine my interests? And are my goals unrealistic?
I am 24 and currently a freshman at a community college. I have had a rough run with education and am aware that I am a bit behind. This does not bother me because I can finally afford college however I did drop out of high school (I did get my GED) and had absolutely no college prep. I never took an SAT or ACT and I am very confused by the college process and have learned most of what I know from the internet so any tips would be appreciated. All of this to say I am trying my best to prioritize education but would love to know if what I'm wanting to achieve is realistic. I'm mostly interested in social sciences like political science, linguistics, psychology and law. This gives me a general area of focus but am still unsure what would be the best degree to get. I do hope to achieve my masters degree or go on to law school but is this unrealistic considering my background? If so what would you recommend me focus on for my associates and bachelors? Also like I said I am quite uninformed about the college process in general so any random tips you have learned would be much appreciated! Thank you.
Seeking Guidance: Freshman High Schooler Exploring Business Colleges
Started my first year in high school currently. My thoughts are straight on college, only because I want to prep for it early so I could better my chances and know what to do. I only have a few questions that are really on my mind recently. 1. What university would be the best option for me? 2. What can I do throughout high school to improve my chances of getting into a university? 3. How should I know what universities to avoid? 4. Just in general what I could do or involve myself in, to improve myself in high school as well as for the future for universities. With that my interests for business going in depth are focused mainly on, management, finance and analytics. I have also been looking into colleges that are business related and are top in business, but I'm still not sure which and where to go.

How can I begin playing soccer and enhance my abilities?
Hi, I am a 15-year-old who recently started ballet classes around February. I am interested in picking up another sport, specifically soccer. Although I have never played soccer on a team or taken any classes, there are no options available for kids my age in my area. I have even considered pursuing soccer professionally and am willing to put in 100% effort and dedication, but I am unsure if this is attainable. My plan involves playing soccer and potentially taking lessons to improve my skills. By my sophomore year, I aim to make the junior varsity team, and in my junior year, I hope to advance to the varsity level and potentially join a girls academy team.
How do I select which major is best for me?
Hi everyone! I'm currently a freshman at a community college with a general liberal arts major. I'm quite interested in both business/entrepreneurship and psychology. The only hesitation in pursuing one or the other is the job opportunities afterward. I'd like to move forward within the psychology sector but I don't want to work in clinical psychology. After researching, I have heard that it is difficult to gain financial success unless you receive higher education within the field. Also, I'd like to move forward in business/entrepreneurship but arithmetics is not my strong suit. What would you suggest my next steps be? Or any guidance?

How can I start a passion project of the medical field I want to peruse?
I am a freshman and I want to start creating a passion project, but i don't know how? I have an idea: Crafting Health Toolkit Initiative Project Concept: Develop a comprehensive toolkit that includes physical items made through crochet and arts & crafts, and digital resources for children's health and wellness. 'Bake for Health' Educational Series Project Concept: A series of workshops and online content that uses baking to teach scientific and health-related concepts. but I need a step by step plan on how to do this and make a difference in my community. Also I’m a freshman so I might not have the resources to do this! But I'm open for help and tips/websites to complete these tasks of mine.
Hi, I am in a CTE high school, and I am currently a freshman. I am in the Robotics program in my school, but I have a strong interest in Medicine, and going into the medical field.

Help with School Struggles?
Hi. I'm a 14-year-old in high school and I've been struggling a lot. I've got a history of truancy and most of my grades aren't great. Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one dealing with this and that it's going to hold me back forever. Has anyone else been through something similar? Any advice on how to handle this and get through school?
Should I quit my sport?
I'm currently in 9th grade and have been doing rhythmic gymnastic since around 4-5 grade. I've been wondering if I should quit since I practice 4 hours a day on school days and haven't been getting enough sleep or good grades. Currently I have all As except for 2 subjects which are Bs, but I think I can do better. I am also taking all the hardest classes available in my school for a freshman. I really love my team but I don't know if rhythmic is my sport since I'm now in level 8 and I'm not as flexible as I used to be, therefore I'm at a huge disadvantage. I have also been wanting to quit for several years now however never had the courage to. It's been part of who I am for such a long time, but I just don't think it's right for me anymore. I really love the sport but I don't think I'm good at it anymore, or will be again in the future. Since I'll only get less flexible. I believe my coach really does want the best for us but most practices are wasted because she's not in the mood to correct us. I also see no future for me in the sport, and I don't think it will be good for collage app since basically no collage has a rhythmic gymnasts team/ I have to decide whether or not I want to quit since we have to start signing up for competition in 2 weeks, and if I don't quit this year I'm not quiting next year since I want to be able to start sometime else and get better at it PLEASE HELP! (If I quit I will start trying new sports starting with gymnastic)
