I am going to be a senior in High School and i am having second thoughts about what i want to do. I thought about Interior design for a very long time and I really do love it but I’m not sure that I want to do this the rest of my life. I haven’t taken a lot of math and science courses in High School so it’s too late to start now. Can you give me advice?? Here are my interests:
interior design
acting
makeup
orthodontics
author?
working with movies

This year we’ve been extra cautious about attendance, only missing two days for the flu which was excused, and dental appointments. But yesterday I recieved a summons to court for attendence.
After getting to the bottom of things, apparently my kid stopped going to her last period class and instead was in another class as a teachers aid.
All along, absences were piling up from the other class, but nobody from the school informed me, even when they had the chance to when I would call attendance to report we were sick with flu or that I was picking up my kid for orthodontics and dental appointments.
This had been going on for 12 straight school days with nobody seemingly being concerned enough until it was time to turn it over to the law to so much as call me.
Now I’ve learned that it wasn’t my kid’s idea but a friend of hers to go work as a teachers aid in another class. This friend did not recieve any discipline because she was best friends with a girl who is one of the vice principal’s daughters.
I feel strongly that my daughter’s teacher purposefully allowed the build up of absences.
I also feel that the teacher who was using my daughter as a teacher’s aid also disregarded her responsibilty to at least know who her aids were, and if they were permitted to do this.
Also the assistant principle’s pulling of strings for the one girl to “get her off the hook” is inappropriate.
All in all, I’ve become leary of these people now. After my daughter faces the judge and recieves probation, it will only take one of these people to make one mark and we’ll be hauled back into court for the fine and other possible actions.
Should I call in the state board of education at this point?

Alright, I would like to go to dental school in the future and plan to stay in the Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Buffalo vicinity, or Ann Arbor. I know of Case Western, UPenn, Pitt, and Michigan having good dental schools, so which one, in your opinion, would be the best for specialization in orthodontics?
Also, I have heard that going to the same school for undergraduate and graduate school is not a good idea. I am mostly concerned because because my two front runners for undergrad school would be michigan and pitt. Any feelings on that?

I am doing a project in school about the job of your dreams and i’m intrested in becoming a dentist- well actually an orthodontist. I have found out that you need to go to university to become a dentist before you can take a college course on orthodontics but i’m not sure how many years of university do you need to become a dentist. what about an orthodontist?

I am a junior in high school and I currently have and am hoping to maintain a 4.0 GPA. After high school I am planning on going to the University of Michigan (maybe not for undergrad) and studying orthodontics as my major and business as my minor. Hopefully after college i will open my own practice and be a successful orthodontist. How does this plan sound? Any suggestion? Any surprises i should look out for? Etc?

Hi guys. Am entering my last year in Secondary School -high school- and i know what i would like to study when i finish school, orthodontics.
I would like to become an orthodontist.
My question is; Do you have to study dentistry and THEN orthodontics, Or would i be able just to study orthodontics and NOT dentistry to become an orthodontist?

This is my DREAM and if I don’t get accepted then I will be devastated and will have to reevaluate my decisions for going in this direction. I do feel that my job that I kinda didnt even ask for is a huge “duh” sign that God is giving me to learn about orthodontics and business. I work as an assistant in an orthodontic office. Please give some advice! thanks
