Will I Get Into The University Of Michigan School Of Engineering?

admin — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 11:00:02 +0000

I am a HS Junior in Michigan and currently have a 3.738 GPA (unweighted) according to U of M’s standards for calculation, have had 4 family members become U of M alumni, ACT score 31 composite, PSAT score of 138 (71 reading, 67 math), am in a selective magnet school (Kalamazoo Area Math and Science Center), take AP Calc AB, AP Biology, Physics B/C, AP Psychology, IB Business and Org., IB English 11, and have taken Honors Biology, Honors Earth Science, Honors Physics, Honors Chemistry, Advanced Algebra, FST (Funtions, Stats, and Trig), Honors American History, Ancient World History, European History, Band, Wind Ensemble (selective honors band), French II and III, Honors English 9 & 10, Honors Econ (took AP Macroeconomics exam and got a 4), Honors Gov’t, Forensics I (acting class) and Debate I.
For extracurriculars I have done Marching band for a year, competed on the school debate team for 2 years (went to states, got to quarterfinals, have other awards), played at Carnegie hall with Wind Ensemble, and am now currently on KAMSC’s research team, where I will compete in a regional Intel ISEF competition, and will be going to an engineering competition in February. I have worked in two pop can drives for band for 5 hours each, two times helping the March of Dimes for 5 hours each, and have worked on replacing windows in peoples’ homes for 8 hours. I have worked on a council to get a local politician elected for state house, and have worked in parades for another state politician.
Last summer I attended the Michigan Math and Summer Science Program at the University of Michigan for 4 weeks, and the summer before that I went to the Debate Classic program at U of M for 4 weeks. For this summer I am applying to the Research Science Institute at MIT and the Summer Science Academy at U of M.
I have been suspended for 5 days for lifting a password off of a computer. No damage was done, I had no malicious intent; I even helped then plug the hole. I simply wanted to see what I could do.

I Haven’t Officially Obtained My Degree. Will That Hinder My Ability To Find A Job?

admin — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 16:54:16 +0000

I just recently “graduated” from college; I walked in the ceremony. I still have two courses, or four credits left to complete to obtain my degrees. My majors were Forensic Science and Chemistry. The classes I have left to take are a computer course on how to use Office applications (yawn) and a lab, which I already took, yet have an incomplete for since I failed to complete all the work for it. Basically, I’m not going to learn anything new by taking these courses.
I’m very competent. I graduated with honors and have even done research on my own. I wanted to know if not officially having my degree will affect my ability to get a job, or would most employers overlook that fact since I am obviously skilled. I also don’t want to get caught in a lie if I am offered a postion somewhere, so when is the best time to bring this information up, and how should I do it (interview, cover letter)?
Thanks a lot.

A Ca. Man Wills Home + 20% To Live-in G/f. He Sells The Home, Buys New Home. He Dies W/o New Will, Now What?

admin — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 20:20:26 +0000

The unmarried couple lived together for over 25 years but are not registered as Domestic Partners (CA Family Code 299.6). They moved to Sr. Cit. mobile home park, so both are registered residents, but I don’t know who’s name is on the Title(his, hers, or both-if I did, I wouldn’t be asking this “??”). She was beneficiary of his Will which listed his former property +20% of his assets. He died unexpectedly w/o a new will. He has 4 greedy adult children who only want to give this 70+ yr. old lady $8,000: her “portion” of the M.H,(valued at $40,000 /5). His kids chose the eldest son to be the “executor” and she agreed (under duress!) He is saying there is not an original Will. She gave her boyfriends computer to a computer forensics investigator to find the Will; she believes the son deleted the file from the computer after his dad’s death. What are her chances of keeping her home, assets Willed and/or compensation, w/o a Will, or w/ a hard copy, a recovered copy or otherwise? Thanks!
