Lets Get Really Random On This New Random Thread!

I love the Knowing movie, it's so good!

Making a new Photobucket account. My old one has run out of space, and I don't think my parents would want to pay for it.

What's the difference between a graduate and an undergraduate?

From what I understand, the first four years is undergraduate. Graduate is any schooling after the original schooling.

Like, if you want to be a doctor in the US you have to take 4 years of pre-med. Those would be your undergraduate years. Next you'd go to med school which is a type of Graduate school to further your education. Don't hold me to it though, this is just what I understood it to be.

In Universities in the UK, you can only choose one subject to study. 2 if they are similar. Is there a difference in the USA?

Nope, you can have two. You can double major if you'd like. I asked my careers counselor and she said if I wanted, I could double major in Nursing and Elementary Education. Most people don't double major though, it's a lot of work. Most people have a major and a minor though, what they want to study first and foremost, and then a "back-up plan". I plan on majoring in Nursing (BSN - Bachelor's of Science in Nursing), and maybe minoring in Education.

It's better now-a-days to do a 4 year program in college. Many people won't hire you if you have anything less than a certain college degree, so it's better to be prepared and spend time in school, than not being qualified enough and saying "Wan' fries wid dat?". LONGEST run on sentence ever, LOL!

It was good, but I couldn't take the screaming people I almost started, like sobbing.

I teared up and left.
I love Nicolas Cage too, but I just couldn't take it.

I don't think we can minor in anything. So I could major in Geography, and minor in zoology if I so wanted? Or maybe major in physics and minor in drama? Or would they have to be similar to each other?

Main choice for me is Geography. Physical Geography to be exact.

Nope, minor and major don't have be related. (I think).

I suggest looking at The Princeton Review website and collegeprowler.com to look at schools in specific states and majors.

Mainly looking at Florida (of course)

I know that I wouldn't mind going to Brighton University for their Geography course.

Personally, I'm looking at schools in California, closer to WDI headquarters.

Sure can. You don't have to have a minor, but you do need a major by the time you graduate.

Hahaha I was doing that when I was riding with my mom during MNSSHP, since we had rode the ride like 10 times when we went, and she made fun of me D:
