Are there any boarding schools in the UK that accept students from the USA?
I'm a 15 year old high school student in America and I would like to know if any UK (preferably in Scotland or England - close to Brighton or London) would allow an American student to apply to their school. Could you list schools that meet the following criteria -
Affordable but not medicore
Provides Financial Aid
Has a great Literature programme.
Is culturally diverse (mostly European but has other American students).
Dress code that is suitable, uniforms aren't preferable but wouldn't be a deal-breaker.
Great student care & guidance, great reviews.
1 AnswerPrimary & Secondary Education8 years agoNYC - Does Rumsey Playfield have an age limit for certain concerts?
My friends and I are all 15-17, the artist (Marina & the Diamonds) doesn't usually have an age limit (unless the concert happens to be in places like Webster Hall). The concert is in May and I don't want to buy tickets for a show that we won't be allowed to see due to our age. The show stars at 6:00pm and concludes around 9-10:30pm so I'm confused if it might be a problem for us to attend this event. Would security stop us even if we legally purchased our tickets? By the way, I understand this isn't a travel question but this category would most likely know rather than the music categories.

9 AnswersRock and Pop8 years agoITunes - How to buy music only available in a different country?
Now to explain -
My favorite singer Marina & the Diamonds has released her "How To Be A Heartbreaker EP" with remixes in the European iTunes stores and isn't available anywhere in the USA(we have the 1 track "single" version whereas they have the 5 track "EP"). I'm curious on how to download this from the USA(I live here and have no ties to the EU) and not re-register under the Euro iTunes(no Euro creditcard or address). And it isn't importable because it isn't a physical release, it is only an iTunes digital copy. Anybody can offer help or a download link?
2 AnswersRock and Pop8 years agoReccomend a series of books...?
I would love to see what you reccomend! So far I own these series - The Mortal Instruments, The Infernal Devices, The Dark Articies(eventually),The Da Vinci Code (Series), I Am Number Four, The Hunger Games.
I am open to any series you like as long as it isn't an overly girly romance novel that could've been written by a teenage girl. Or any fanfics, seriously fanfics are not only unrealistic they are also creepy.
4 AnswersBooks & Authors8 years agoLooking for modern retold stories -READ DETAILS-?
Okay this is my second question in this section (due to my overwhelming new admiration of books) and I'd love for you to reccomend me some modern retellings of stories like Cinderella, Greek Gods, Snow White and things in that area of fiction. They could be mystery,horror,comedy,action-adventure, etc. Ten points for best answer.
BTW don't reccomend the Percy Jackson series, I already bought it - please vary your answers among genres too.
1 AnswerBooks & Authors8 years agoAnyone reccomend books similar to these books/movies...?
So from the title you can understand I'm looking for any number of books that are appropriate for a guy(literally nothing like 50 Shades series...). I'm 15 years old and I pretty much enjoy fantasy, adventure, action, comedy, mystery, mental disorders&psychosis.
The Black Swan - I love how twisted the main character is within her own brain. I enjoy the symbolism.
The Da Vinci Code series - I already own all 5 of the books and any book/series similar to this would be much appreciated!
I Am Number Four (series) - Once again I own all 3 books in the series and I would like to have another series similar to it - whether it be super powers, teenage life, aliens, teen romance, etc.
Grimm Fairytales - I love the REAL stories before they were Disney-fied. Any modern retellings are a must (such as "Cinder" or Zombie versions).
Any comedic action books, parody books (think Pride,Prejedice and Zombies), zombie apocolypse stories or anything close to those genres. BOOKS ONLY!
Best Answer will be rewarded with 10 points or whatever.
BQ - what is your personal favorite book or series?

11 AnswersRock and Pop9 years agoQuestion about the Fillmore Charlotte...?
I want to go with parental consent to the Marina & the Diamonds concert December 11th, 2012 at this venue and I'm only 15. What is the age you can go unaccompanied to a concert there? I would be going with possibly 2-4 friends too. I know the prices but the actual point of this question was asked because I don't really want to go with my mom to a concert. I am fairly mature for my age and finally some of my friends actually like this singer!
