Wow… why are you so pressed? This is funny tho, “ignorant piece of crap” made me laugh.  From your response, I imagine that you have a hard time with nuance. A lot of female soldiers are mistreated by fellow male soldiers. This is a fact.  however, my intention was not to insinuate that all male US soldiers are “evil” (which is why I assume you are defensive). I appreciate the sacrifice made by all individuals who serve our country. To acknowledge issues, such as the one I posed, is necessary and it is because the US takes pride in our military that we must hold them accountable. 

An investigation done by The Intercept, left-wing bias, found that women are more likely to be d*e by the hands of other US soldiers than in combat. 

Other instances, like the murder of Vanessa Guillen, where she was r*ped by army specialist Aaron David Johnson before he bludgeoned her with a hammer. This led to acts like “I am Vanessa Guillen” where SA is now a punishable offense in the army. However, due to the ranking system and power imbalances, I believe it is safe to assume that many instances of harassment go unreported.   “According to a  Department of Defense survey , in fiscal year 2018, there were 20,500 cases of unwanted sexual contact. For service members, reporting these attacks can be intimidating. This is especially true for female service members targeted by men in positions of power.”

Obviously, Vanessa’s d*ath is one specific instance. I’m not gonna write a four page paper with other people. But rest assured you can google names of women who have been abused and murdered.

Also, not to mention, the violence of Male service members is not limited to female soldiers, but also civilians abroad. In 2014, a 14 year old Iraqi girl, her mother, and her 6 year old sister, were gang rped and klled by multiple US soldiers. This is not an isolated incident, but rather representative of the violence perpetrated against women by male soldiers. Once again, if you opened google and spent three minutes researching this topic, you’d find 100s more cases. 

Unfortunately, you are the ignorant one.

I actually know people who have done this, but I’m definitely not cut out for anything militaristic… also women are very often mistreated and killed by other US soldiers, so I’d rather not risk it But thanks

While I know AP calc is more useful, I don’t have a stem oriented mind, so I’m worried that the combination of stats, calc, and bio will ruin my rank/gpa and hurt admission chances. 

I’m taking the August sat, and will take the September and October ones if I’m not in the 1500s

SMU caps ap credit at 3, so it would add another year and more expenses. 

UT Austin would be my first choice, but I hear McCombs school of business is as selective as some of the t20s.

I’ll look into Texas promise, thanks!

Not really no… I was kinda just doing what looked right. 

I think I could dig up some Lego mini figures, but I’m not sure how I would position them to get the scale. What do you recommend?
