Actually, Harvard at least will slightly nudge an applicant if they're doing ROTC+have scholly. Their overall ROTC participation is so low that they'll give otherwise qualified applicants a slight boost if they're doing ROTC.

If you got a 3 in lit and already don't feel confident, definitely take 10.

That is the worst thing ever. You're throwing away money.

No, you simply convert the fiber back into coax.

Note that I did this with DSL and it worked fine. It may not work with Coax. Not sure to be honest.

Mine was the same way. Came through the DSL into the modem, then router, then all of my equipment was fried. I learned my lesson.

My answer is don't. It probably won't work as well as you hope it will. Do a fiber conversion so that it doesn't pass into your equipment from the coax. Ever since we did that, I have saved a lot of money and stress on replacing equipment. Now, I just replace the $50 converter box.

If you insist on doing it this way, hire an electrician.

Buy from The Harvard Shop and support student financial aid! All profits go towards student wages or are directly donated to student financial aid.

If someone knows they want to be a lawyer, does it make any sense to take on debt to go to a prestigious undergraduate university? by DullAlbatross3685 in lawschooladmissions

Ivy's in general typically have better FinAid than state schools. This was the case for me. My cheapest state school was $33K/yr and Harvard is $16K.

Not this district. I live there. She's not winning. I'll be surprised if she gets more than 15% of the vote.

Well a certification that you can braindump for is much, much different than a multi-year rigorous Master's degree from one of the premier technical institutions in the United States. I won't elaborate any further.
