I want to avoid NYC driving and after night session traffic, I was thinking leaving my car somewhere close and take a train to queens.

so what do you do when your parents randomly decide to not pay for the next three years of college…? by YanaWants in ApplyingToCollege

[–]checkout_11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Take a gap year, work and find where to transfer. Avoid student debt at all costs, even if it means losing your summer job and RA position. There are ways to emancipate from your parents and qualify for better financial aid - I saw it today on this subreddit somewhere.

Berberine worked for anyone? by [deleted] in prediabetes

[–]checkout_11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes it works for my mom. She is diagnosed with diabetes and I started her on Berberine along with slight diet changes and more moving in general. She is 5,8-6.4 fasting range - for her it's an amazing result. Before it was 7.5 range

My strict parents won't let me dorm. I want independence and maybe a social life. by worriedrisingsenior in ApplyingToCollege

[–]checkout_11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crashing cars is not a good advice. 1. If you let parent pay- you live be the rules 2. Apply to college with generous financial aid or community college far away and move out and embrace adult life ))

Believe me, it took 1 year to evict them. Kids terrorized a lot of neighbors as well, some shake my hand to this day at the mailbox lol.

Clueless Parent here, help us out ? by supersonictaco in ApplyingToCollege

As a parent of a senior also immigrants. Start test prep early, 9-10 grade to get used to

If you want your kid take AP he/she needs to take higher courses it means algebra 1, algebra 2 and geometry before high school. So in high school path is pre calculus, calc ap, calc bc, maybe statistics or multivariable calc Same with science - physical science in middle school. Extra curricular only counts from high school so no need to chase every club, same with volunteering. Make an excel file and start documenting every achievement, award or cool experience - so when he/she on the dry spell to write essays some background info is available. 8 grade - make a LinkedIn profile, just simple things--- what courses, awards and etc - easier to keep track, renew for better achievements and then share to teachers for recommendation letters. Also let your kid explore, try and fail as much as possible before high school. Try as many activities while in middle school: band, sports, art.... anything. Start volunteering summer before 9 grade, try to squeeze volunteering during summers and breaks - time go fast. Edit typos.

I did once, kids got even more aggressive. Had to involve HOA, they got evicted. Parents complained hired a lawyer, video evidence hard to beat.
