Howard University vs Morgan State University?
Hello, I am a student who is currently in college but I am transferring from my previous college to another one and Howard University and Morgan State University were universities that I applied to.
I am currently in a dilemma because I applied Morgan State after Howard rejected me due to an issue, but the issue was fixed and I was accepted to Howard University.
After I found out I was accepted to Howard, I told Morgan State to cancel my application and they said it that it was ok to do that but apparently they did not listen because I found out that I was accepted today (They sent me an email)
I was just about to go pay my deposit for Howard University but this Morgan State acceptance just has me so confused now.
I was originally going to go to Howard because I really think I would love it there and their alumni base is very strong and they also have lots of opportunities that would help me out when getting a job. I applied to Morgan as a backup if I did not get into Howard. But I did get accepted.
Which school do you guys think is better?
Oh yeah for both schools, I would've majored in Computer Science.
1 AnswerHigher Education (University +)6 years agoThe best majors for a future law school student or medical school student?
I am a freshmen in college at the moment and I am indecisive about my career decisions for the future.
I wanted to be a lawyer but then found out that it is hard to obtain a job in the Law field due to the fact that there aren't enough jobs but a high demand of people who want the jobs
I also thought about being a doctor but I couldn't make up my mind about that.
What major is the best for a future law school student? I'm majoring in Political Science but I'm currently thinking of adding Economics as a second major or just removing Political Science and majoring in Economics and English or History. I don't know what to do.
And if I wanted to go into the medical field would I need a science related major or can I major in something else?
I don't know what to do.
If I want to be a lawyer, I want a major that will help me have a 180 on my LSAT so I can go to NYU law school and if I want to become a doctor, I want to have a major that will help me score high on my MCAT test. I want to be very successful.
6 AnswersHigher Education (University +)7 years agoLaw Career vs Medical Career?
Hi everyone.
I'm in a huge dilemma right now. I'm going to college in about a month and I have decided to major in Political Science. I wanted to be a lawyer, but after extensive research, I've noticed that the demand for law jobs is too high. I saw that several lawyers can't get jobs because there are too many people with the degree but not enough jobs to spread around.
Is the medical field any better? In the past, I've decided that if I cannot be a lawyer, I would become a pediatrician, pharmaceutical scientist or a physician's assistant.
I like the thought of both careers very much. But I'm worried about being able to get a job.
5 AnswersLaw & Legal7 years agoI don't know what to do anymore. :(?
College loans are stressing my mother and I out.
I'm about to begin college in August and I received the billing information about the college I am going to.
The college I am going to cost $45,063 a year to go to and I received $28,206 in Merit scholarships, talent scholarships, the college grant and the Pennsylvania state grant. I have to pay $5,500 in Stafford loans and my mother has to pay $10,000+ a year.
Unfortunately, she cannot pay that amount of money. My parents are divorced. There's four people in my house and my mom makes a little over $75,000 a year. My FAFSA EFC was 007175.
I'm getting so depressed about everything right now. :(
I really love the college that I am suppose to go to but if it's going to put my mother in $50,000 and she's 50 and supposed to retire in at least 10 years, I don't want her to suffer because of my college loans.
Oh and then I have law school to go to. I really wanted to be a lawyer. Is being a lawyer still worth it? I'm so confused about my career decisions right now.
I was going to major in Political Science and maybe Business but I don't know what to do anymore. I'm about to have a break down. :(
Oh yeah and state schools weren't an option for me. All of the state schools in Pennsylvania cost at least $17,000+ and my mother was still left with at least $10,000 to pay for me and then I had my Stafford loans and the state grant for the state schools isn't enough. I only received $900.
6 AnswersFinancial Aid7 years agoIs Pre-Calculus hard?
I'm about to have this class in school and I wasn't that good in math in the past but my grade in Algebra II was a 98%. I think Algebra is easy so would I have a hard time doing Pre-Calculus?😳😨
2 AnswersMathematics7 years agoWhat does an estimated expected family contribution with six numbers mean?
When I finished my FAFSA, it said my EFC was 005171. Does that mean I will get some kind of aid? My mother makes around 60,000+, sometimes it's 70,000 but she gets a high amount of tax taken out with every paycheck and our bills are expensive.
I thought the EFC was supposed to be five digits long. I'm worried that there was some kind of error or something.
2 AnswersOther - Education7 years agoShould I go to school with a sore throat?
I'm currently in a situation where I can't decide if I want to go to school or not.
Right now I have a sore throat and a lot of mucus and I also have asthma. When I go to school with a sore throat I get a non-stop cough and it doesn't stop until I leave school and when I'm at school I feel worse. My body feels more weak there.
The nurse at my school is a jerk and she doesn't let anyone leave school early, even if they have a fever. She's rude.
Right now I don't have a fever but I just feel like crap. 😷😤😭😰😨😱😩😫.
I also have a headache and my eyes are burning me along with a runny nose and it's stuffy also.
I usually know I have a cold when my eyes have a burning sensation.
2 AnswersRespiratory Diseases7 years agoIs Indiana University of Pennsylvania a good school?
I'm 18 years old and I found out that I was accepted into IUP yesterday when the acceptance letter came.
I did some extensive research and it's kind of making me regret wanting to go to IUP. I hear that it's a party school, and that there's parties everyday but I applied there because it has my major (Political Science/Pre Law). Is it honestly that bad? I'm going to visit the campus in a couple of months but I watched videos of the campus and it looks pretty nice to me.
Also, is Lock Haven University a good school? I applied there and was accepted also.
1 AnswerHigher Education (University +)7 years agoColleges that accept a 2.7/2.8 GPA?
Hello, I have a question. Are there any colleges that accept a 2.8 GPA? Please don't judge me for my GPA please. I've had emotional problems during high school ( I was bullied a lot and would not come to school because of it) and I've faced many family deaths within the last 2-3 years so I was pretty upset. I've been told that I don't have any confidence in myself and that's why my GPA is low.
I know that I'm an intelligent person, I'm trying to improve so hard. At this moment I have 2 B+'s in my design classes and A+'s in every other class, so I'm actually trying hard and succeeding at it. I'm not meant to go to a community college.
Here's the thing though. My GPA might actually be around a 3.0+ but my school counselor told me that the school does not do weighed/under weighed GPAs and that at another school my GPA would most likely be higher. In the school that I went to before, I had honors classes and then I transferred to a school that only has college prep and doesn't have AP courses. So what can I do? I really want to take an AP class or college course. So basically the honors courses that I took at the other school didn't count for the school that I currently go to now.
My SAT score wasn't too good either. My score was an 1140. I do feel that the SATs don't prove your intelligence and readiness for school and that the second time that I do the test I would score way better than the first time that I took it in June.
I'm a senior and 18 years old. I'm honestly sorry that this question is so long. :(
3 AnswersHigher Education (University +)8 years agoShould I just kill myself?
Hi everyone, I'm 18 and I'm so upset with myself.
I'm a senior in high school and I managed to f*ck up the previous three years of high school. I just feel so useless, terrible and stupid. My GPA is currently a 2.7 and I feel like I failed at life. I've gone through so much for the last three-almost four years now. I was bullied severely and no one wanted to help me out, people just watched me get hurt. Being bullied made my self-esteem drop to an all time low. I just feel like everyone hates me and no one wants to take me seriously. I know that the school year just started but I just don't know if I'll ever go to college. I just feel like I've wasted these 3 years of my high school life being hurt emotionally.
I'm constantly told that I'm an intelligent person and that I'm going to do well in life, but I just don't feel that way. I just feel that I'm going to be a failure. I don't think that I can even go to college with a 2.7 GPA and Community College is not what I want. I recently went to my school counselor and was told that if I keep my grades as straight A's for the whole year my GPA will be back at least a 3.0. I'm trying so hard right now. I have A's right now. I have no one to talk to, I have friends but their grades are better than mine and they weren't hurt emotionally like I was, so when I talk to them they just don't understand. I really want to be a lawyer or doctor, but because I screwed up in high school, I don't think that i'll ever have those careers. Oh yeah and I also have an interest in singing and acting but I don't think that my dreams will ever come true.
Every day, I just break down and cry because I feel like a f*ck up. I feel so horrible. I can't even talk to my mother about my problems, she just doesn't understand me. No one understands me. I feel so lonely and isolated. Oh yeah and there's been 4 deaths in my family within the last two years so I've been sad about that too.
I can't even apply myself in school anymore, I just feel like I can't. If I don't understand something, I put down myself. All I can think about is my past and how people treated me back then. Should I just kill myself? It feels like no one cares about me. Oh yeah, and I've never had a boyfriend before. I'm 18 and never had one before, I'm an embarrassment.
People call me ugly all the time. I don't think that I'm ugly. I'm a pretty nice person, I don't understand why people hate me so much.
8 AnswersMental Health8 years agoIs 36-30-38 considered an hourglass shape?
I wanted to know if 36C bust, 30 inch waist and 38 inch hips equal an hourglass shape. I'm 5' 6.5", 17 and 209lbs (I know I weigh too much but I'm working on it. :) ), I've been told that I do have an hourglass shape by lots of people but I wasn't exactly sure if I do. When I was around 150-175lbs I was told that it showed a lot and that was when I was like a size 8 - size 12.
So I wanted to know If I was an hourglass shape. I If I lose weight and get to like 150-160 again will I still have an hourglass shape?
3 AnswersDiet & Fitness8 years agoIs this a valid reason to report T-Mobile to the FCC and BBB?
So, I'm stuck in a dispute between T-Mobile.
I have the HTC Sensation, and I've had many problems with it. I've had 3 replacements in less than a month within each other.
On March 26th, I contacted T-Mobile and they gave me the third sensation. On that same day, my account was noted saying that after the third replacement, I'm able to get a comparable phone model.
The third replacement I received won't keep the charger in the phone. I've called T-Mobile about it several times, and they state that "We see the notation on your account saying that you're able to get a comparable model for your phone, but there's no replacement compatible with the HTC Sensation," "We've done everything possible to help you in this situation," I called their tech support and I was told that the Samsung Galaxy s2 is the comparable phone model for my phone. I told customer care this and they still said that they see the notation but can't do anything...
T-Mobile keeps on telling me to use the upgrade on another line on the account, but that's my brother's account and he really needs a new phone. So I cannot use his upgrade. T-Mobile also is telling me to change my plan to one of their "Uncarrier" plans and upgrade, but I'm going to have a migration fee which is over $200 and the plan will make the bill cost go even higher. They're also telling me to keep on receiving refurbished HTC Sensations which all have the same problems over and over again.
Oh and here's the worst part. I was charged a $92.99 and $5.55 out of warranty fee. The one of the phones I received had dead pixels in the screen when I turned it on, and T-Mobile replaced it with no problem. The second phone would overheat and it also wouldn't hold the charger in it properly.
So I'm trying to report T-Mobile to the FCC and the BBB. Is what I just explained worth the time of complaining to those two corporations? I'm hoping that they'll let the three accounts leave with no termination fee or to give me a new cell phone.
I'm sorry that this is so long everyone, but can you answer it please? 10 points to the best answer. :)
2 AnswersCorporations8 years agoAm I able to exercise with mild hives?
Earlier this week since Wednesday, I had a severe allergic reaction to some kind of laundry detergent. I had bad hives, and my hands and feet would burn with pain. Today, I'm about 95% better except that my a small part of my calf's and a small part of my thighs are still a bit itchy. Would I be able to go to the gym today and exercise? Would exercising cause my hives to come back again?
Should I take a Benadryl before I go to the gym? I've had two 25mg benadryls about four times yesterday. I took them at 9:00am and I stopped taking them 3:30am this morning. So can I take more benadryl again so I won't have to worry?
Please help me, thank you. :) :D
2 AnswersAllergies8 years agoHow to lose 1.5-2 pounds a week?
I'm 228 almost 227 and I want to be 140-150 by next year for prom. I'm 17. I was 240 a month and a half ago but now I'm 228. I would like to know how to lose 1.5-2 pounds a week. I mean I know exercise is a main component to losing weight, but how much should I burn?
When I go to the gym, I use the treadmill and usually burn 700-900 calories, and then I walk most of my way home from the gym which is like 80-100 calories more. I used to be able to go the gym everyday but school has been keeping me busy. But I'll use the treadmill in my home and i'll burn 500-600 calories on it.
Oh yeah and I was losing weight dramatically but it seems like I'm not anymore now. :( Oh yeah and I eat 800-900 calories a day. Sometimes 1000-1100 but most of the time I eat below that. I'm 5' 6 1/2".I also use MyFitnessPal for portion control.

Soooo... I was going to make a pasta but I have no milk or butter. I happen to have sour cream and oil and chicken bullion cubes. So can I use the flour, chicken bullion cubes(substitute of butter) or oil, and sour cream(instead of milk) to make the bechamel? :o
3 AnswersCooking & Recipes8 years agoWhat is it like being a black kid going to a school with mostly white kids?
I really want to know. My mom is thinking of transferring me to a catholic school. I'm choosing between like four schools. All of the schools have a lot of white children. Do you think that I'd get race threats or racist jokes at all? I'm black, in 11th grade and almost 17 in 15 days. OK, here's my personality. I'm a nice person, I never get in trouble, I'm kind of shy and I'm kind of quiet unless I get to know you. If I ever got to know you, I'd talk more.
Don't tell me "Not to act Ghetto." Because I'm not.
Oh yeah, and I live in Pennsylvania. One of the schools is in a richer area called Radnor. :P Is anyone racist up there? I'm not poor so I don't think that I could get made fun of for being poor. I live kind of close to that area.
And the school I currently go to now has white children and their nice to me. :) But my old school also has black people and for the most part their nice to me too :D except for some. So would it be different at a catholic school?
Thankies for answering. :)
6 AnswersOther - Cultures & Groups9 years agoWhere can I get One Direction folders and notebooks from for school?
I've seen pictures of their folders and I want to know where I can get them from? The notebooks too. And No H8. I'm a directioner so I love 1D♥♥. :) But where can I get these items from. Also, If i have 1D items no one will try to steal from me because everyone in my school hates 1D. :O
6 AnswersCelebrities9 years agoWhy do people hate One Direction so much?
I don't understand why anyone would hate 1D so much. I mean they are really talented. They worked hard to become famous and they CAN actually sing. So i don't understand why people say they are untalented. And if you don't know who One Direction is, it's that British-Irish band with the five band mates named Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan. It just makes no sense at all. Oh yeah, and I'm a directioner. :)
What did they ever do to you for you to hate them? Nothing at all.
So what's a valid reason for why people might hate them?
33 AnswersCelebrities9 years agoWhy do people call me a self-hater? I'm black By the Way.?
Ugh. This issue is so annoying. People call me a self-hater because I speak proper English. While they speak kind of gangster or whatever, and they say that I hate being black because I don't speak like a gangster. Oh yeah and I happen to listen to rock music and pop music and they called me a self-hater too. I like alternative rock, and I love boy-bands like crazy. And I love pop music. I mean my mother raised me not to listen to rap music because it's vulgar and inappropriate. I mean I listen to R&B but not as much.
Oh yeah and I like white dudes too. So i don't understand how I'm a self-hater. It makes no sense.
Like people would always bully me in school because I wasn't like them and they'd call me an Oreo or whatever. Like I was completely different from other people and I'm 17 and people still bully me because I'm different.
So can you tell me why they call me a self-hater? I don't hate black people at all. But I do feel uncomfortable around people who act like gangsters and that's regardless of race.
