o.aitl if you're not at a time of your life where you're ready to maturely focus yourself on academics and learning, I would recommend you spend two years at a community college, build a solid GPA while working for your desired major, and then transfer to LSU.
 
Hurray for Cowboys fans!

First day of the new term , and man was it a bore. Christ, it felt like the day would never end. My new teachers are okay, but I no longer have lunch 8th period, which means I can't leave 45 mins early.

It's been one day and I can't wait for the next vacation.

Speaking of GPA's, I currently have a 3.5 (unweighted) and a 4.5 (weighted) GPA. It is always good to start out high your freshman year so you can maintain it till your senior year. I started kind of lower than I expected though, but I still have a lot of time left.

Anyways, I have this weird feeling the Giants will pull a big upset over the Pats this Sunday. Lets go GIANTS!

At the high school level, advanced classes aimed at (poorly) replicating the collegiate level get a 1.0 boost.
 
Anybody here ever read Howard Zinn's "A People’s History of the United States". More specifically the chapter Tyranny is Tyranny.

Do you remember it well enough to help me? Or is that a no.

Way to go. And you gave me the slightest hope, shame on you.

It depends. On an unweighted scale, you would obviously have a 4.0. But on a weighted it would depend. Unweighted is without counting honors/AP, unweighted just matters on the type of grades you get regardless of what level classes you're taking. Weighted is counted by honors and AP. If you're taking higher level classes than the normal level, you're GPA is going to be higher. Say if you're taking Honors/AP and another student is taking normal level. Say if you get a 92 in Algebra 2 Honors and they get a 92 in normal level Algebra 2, you'd have a higher GPA. So you're weighted GPA would be around 5.0+ if you're taking honors but most likely around 4.3-4.7 if you're taking normal level so its always good to take honors.

You mind not talking about by Sex Slave that way.
 
Joe Johnson in the last 5 games is averaging 14.4pts 27-81FGA and has only attempted 15FTA. If your cold from the outside, how about driving it to the basket.

If he's injured like some people are saying he is, he better not play in the ASG, he should use that time to heal.
 
Is there a difference between footnotes and a bibliography? I know what they look like visually and all, but if you decide to have a bibliography, you don't need to provide any type footnotes, right?
 
Footnotes go with the bibliography. It depends on how specific your teacher wants you to be, but in my last year of high school and in university, I've had to specify where I've gotten every idea from with footnotes.

But can't I cite my sources by putting in parenthesis, the author's name/ page number, and then including the source in my bibliography? Why would I need footnotes then? Isn't it the same thing?
