I was able to get through my undergraduate degree, my MBA, and half of my law degree using my G.I. Bill.  It only really paid for the undergraduate studies (at a state school), but it was a welcome and needed allowance/expense account for the other two (private) schools.  Best deal I ever made.\n\nCongratulations on your Associates.  Keep on plugging along!

I did a primary PGCE at the UEA, I found the interview to be a bit of a non-event, it only lasted around 25 mins.  They asked me about my opinion on a current educational event- check out the TES for information and form a few opinions on current topics before you go in.  There was a local head in my interview as well, and she asked me about how I would have reacted a a dilemma that she had faced in their school- in this case persuading parents that their son was a great dancer and should be allowed to go to ballet classes, I answered and she said that was exactly what they had done and it worked!  I passed the PGCE with flying colours but still can't get a job!\nHope that helps.\nGood luck

From experience I have to say confidence.\nLast year I had to go for an interview for a Young Achievers Award. I didn't realise it was that day so I turned up utterly unprepared, but after using a few anecdotes and talking big about politics and art, I got the prize for best artist 13-16 years in my area!\nWhen I went for my first job interview, the manager didn't even look at my school marks, just asked me what I thought about how well I could do the job and be friendly with customers.

I spent my entire last semester of my senior year in the hospital and got exempt from every exam. Since I went to a private school, they just "gave" me my last year based on my GPA. (idiots)\nI broke over half the bones in my body, lost 5 teeth, was blind for 6 months, and had a HUGE piece of toboggan stuck through my leg for at least a week until they could figure out what specialist could get it out.. \nGraduation was just a riot with no friggin teeth. I had so much fun making crass jokes and used ketchup packets to squirt out fake blood, pretending my friends had hit me whenever kids or older people stared at me.\nWait a minute... I still do that..

Some of these tips are critical during your first weeks, while the others are meant for longer-term guidance and survival. Whatever you do, be sure to be yourself and try to enjoy your college experience as much as possible. Expect to feel some stress and homesickness, but don't let these issues wear you down. \n\nGo to all orientations. Do you really need to go on yet another campus tour? Yes. The faster you learn your way around campus -- and around all the red tape -- the more at ease you'll feel and the better prepared you'll be when issues arise. \n\nGet to know your roommate and others in your residence hall. The people you live with, most of whom are going through similar experiences and emotions, are your main safety net -- not only this year, but for all your years. You may change roommates after the first semester or you may stay roommates for all four years -- just take the time to get to know your fellow first-year students. \n\nGet Organized. In high school, the teachers tended to lead you through all the homework and due dates. In college, the professors post the assignments -- often for the entire semester -- and expect you to be prepared. Buy an organizer, a PDA, a big wall calendar -- whatever it takes for you to know when assignments are due. \n\nFind the ideal place for you to study. It may be your dorm room or a cozy corner of the library, but find a place that works best for you to get your work done -- while avoiding as many distractions as possible. \n\nGo to class. Obvious, right? Maybe, but sleeping in and skipping that 8 am class will be tempting at times. Avoid the temptation. Besides learning the material by attending classes, you'll also receive vital information from the professors about what to expect on tests, changes in due dates, etc. \n\nBecome an expert on course requirements and due dates. Professors spend hours and hours preparing course syllabi and calendars so that you will know exactly what is expected of you -- and when. One of the lamest excuses a student can give a professor: "I didn't know it was due today." \n\nMeet with your professors. Speaking as a professor, I can assure you there are only upsides to getting to know your professors, especially if later in the semester you run into some snags. Professors schedule office hours for the sole purpose of meeting with students -- take advantage of that time. \n\nGet to know your academic adviser. This is the person who will help you with course conflicts, adding or dropping courses, scheduling of classes for future semesters, deciding on majors and minors. This person is a key resource for you -- and should be the person you turn to with any academic issues or conflicts. And don't be afraid of requesting another adviser if you don't click with the one first assigned to you. \n\nSeek a balance. College life is a mixture of social and academic happenings. Don't tip the balance too far in either direction. One of my favorite former students always used to say her motto was to "study hard so she could play hard." \n\nGet involved on campus. A big problem for a lot of new students is a combination of homesickness and a feeling of not quite belonging. A solution? Consider joining a select group -- and be careful not to go overboard -- of student organizations, clubs, sororities or fraternities, or sports teams. You'll make new friends, learn new skills, and feel more connected to your school. \n\nStrive for good grades. Another obvious one here, right? Remember the words of the opening paragraph; while good grades could have come naturally to you in high school, you will have to earn them in college -- and that means setting some goals for yourself and then making sure you work as hard as you can to achieve them. \n\nTake advantage of the study resources on campus. Just about all colleges have learning labs and tutors available. If you're having some troubles, these resources are a

the best thing that happened to me in school is that i was chosen to go to the whitehouse to see the president with other kids around the US. I had taken a statewide test and if you score high, you can get through

1st grade.\n\nBecause in 2nd grade the teacher hated me (No I didnt cause any trouble), she would rub her knuckles hard across my head. She also refused to let me go to the restroom and I ended up peeing my pants at my desk and I became the laughingstock of my grade. In first grade I was the best student in class. After 2nd grade I lost interest in school and got all bad grades. School just became hell for me after that.
