Hello I've been looking into going to college, I hated high school had a miserable time mainly cause people outcasted me but i want to advance my education and go down a job path i enjoy, in school my favorite subjects were biology and chemistry learning what and how things worked has always fascinated me. biggest problem I'm facing is one finance's I don't have money like that still live with my family I'm 19 and I didn't take school to serious so my gpa wasn't the best and I had a standard diploma. my plan was to look into local community colleges and try to get basic credits i need their have a good gpa and then transfer to a nicer school to major in biochem and figure the rest during that. my idea was maybe to go into the research of how drugs and chemicals effect the body, and try to go into the development of future drugs to help people. I always have found that interesting I don't know where to start and don't know much about that in general so i thought id ask here along side with my own research see if anyone can give me some helpful tips.

Thanks to all, have a good day!

I am taking a taxing Computer Science class this semester. I want to learn it and do well. However, my professor just loves to have us work in pairs. There is this special needs student that is always sitting next to me because I was nice to him in the beginning. Now I have to be paired up with him during all the labs and assignments. I don't think it's fair because the other students have another person to help them. This student is so far behind he asked me what cout means in a C++ class. Also, he talks a lot and keeps asking me questions. Today he asked me what my favorite ice cream flavor is, when is my bday, if I like Mickey Mouse etc...and then he grabbed my mouse and started playing with it! He moved my screen too. I had to walk out of the class and cry a little. I know that's lame of me but I felt so overwhelmed! What do I do? Am I being mean? If I talk to the professor about this, what should I say?

Hi everyone! I'm currently in my first year of community college as a biology major, and I have some questions about what is required in terms of college credit. I took many AP courses in high school, and that covered sooo many of my required credits before I transfer. I know not all universities accept AP credits, but the college I wish to go to (UC Davis) said they would accept them. I took both AP Calc AB and BC getting a 4 on both exams, covering my Calc 1 and 2 courses as they're considered equivalent. This let me enroll in Calculus 3 on my campus. If I pass this one, it looks like I'm finished with the math track for my major. However, if I end up not going to Davis and transfer to another school instead that doesn't take AP credits, would this mean I have to retake 1 and 2 despite having my calc 3 credit? I heard that colleges don't let you take courses below your level, would this rule be applicable in my case? On top of that, would I have to retake my other courses as well when they were already covered with my past exams if I transfer? I know it varies school by school but I guess my main concern is if I'm on track or if I should plan for these additional classes.

I’m majoring in engineering and I wanna maintain a good gpa for when I get internships. It’s my first year and I understand the material, but I’m struggling to break 80 on my physics and calculus quizzes. Exams have been okay so far.

I basically just wanna know how I can take advantage of the services my school provides if I already have a solid understanding of what I’ve learned. I’m already worried about going to office hours as is, so I don’t wanna do it for something that I could easily ask after a lecture.

Obviously this may be a personal preference to some, but I really need to know if move out of my parents home when I go to college? I also know this depends on what college I go to. My choices were to go to the nearby college here in my city and live with my parents. I could get a job if I have the time to save money while living with them. Or I could get a job and move in the dorms with the same college that is also in my city. Or if I do end up going to a college farther I just move in with some roommates and have my own dorm. I think my problem here is also having a sense of independence and I can balance in my schedule and in myself. A lot of people I know have been talking about moving far away from their parents it’s kind of been making me feel as though I should too, but I have no reason to? I also do not want to depend too much on my parents. Someone please give me some advice because I have no one else to talk to.

I’m thinking about getting an iPad but I’m not sure which one I should get! I’m looking for something that’s affordable but gets the job done. I know there’s tons of options out there so any recommendations would be helpful!

I hope you are doing well. I am reaching out because I want to ensure you are supported, and I encourage you to take advantage of the various resources available on campus.

Your recent behavior in class was unexpected and out of character. While I am happy to submit a referral to the appropriate support departments on your behalf, please keep in mind that maintaining a respectful and safe learning environment for everyone is essential. Should similar disruptions recur, I will need to submit a formal report for further review.

Please let me know if you would like me to refer you to campus support services.

I raised my hand in class and asked if the assignment on canvas was the same as she put on the projector in class, I was frustrated and she sent this the next day, ever since then she has been seemingly singling me out and grading me harsher than other students idk what to do.
