Is California Polytechnic State University- Pomona a good university for a student aspiring to become a vet?

with one comment

I would probably major in animal sciences or something like that. Is this field of study at this University good or well-known to veterinary schools? Also what other Universities would be good for someone who wants to go to vet school? I also am considering UC-Davis, but that is way farther than Cal Poly Pomona. What would you recommend?

Are you kidding? Cal Poly Pomona is one of the best universities in California for that major. UC Davis is probably the best in the country and therefore you’ll need a 4.2 and a 1500/1600 on your SATs to go there. If you can’t get into UCD, CPP is your next best bet. They’ve got great facilities including the world famous Kellogg Arabian Horse Center. In case you haven’t also heard, the W.K. Kellogg foundation just gifted $42 million dollars to the school, the largest such gift in the entire CSU system ever. You may also consider Cal Poly SLO, but only Pomona also offer a zoology option. Cal Poly emphasizes hands on learning, so you’ll get plenty of labs working with real animals, and you won’t be learning just from books. Visit their website and visit the school. Look for the Sunday horse show, conducted the first Sunday of most months and is conducted mostly by Cal Poly Pomona students. Good luck!!

I have double degree in Law and Chemistry from New Zealand University. I want to become a CEO at a hospital in the future. What are the possibilities?

If you really want to be CEO or something like that then You should check you some good premier Universities. Oxford accepts double degree students in almost every discipline.
I would recommend, any of Oxford or Cambridge!
Other wise check out; UPenn in USA.
better luck.

What University can help me become a book editor, model, and an actress at the same time?

with one comment

I would like to become a book editor and a model or actress when I am older, but I dont know what University can help me in all those catigories at the same time. I also would like to have The University be in the usa. (atleast) please someone answer!! I really want to be an actress, but in case it dosnt work I want to be a book editor.

no college that i know of has classes in modeling so you’ll have to go to the private sector for those. many english-geared degrees will help with book editing and you can find thos ein addition to theater arts at NYU, Tisch, carnegie Mellon, USC, UCLA and a bunch of other state schools.

What’s the difference between University of Bristol and the University of West England Bristol?

with 4 comments

This year I will start my degree in the U.K and some people suggested me to apply to Bristol as appears to be a nice city for students. When I was applying through UCAS I selected UWE( university of west of England) and apparently it is totally different from the University of Bristol. I would prefer University of Bristol because is one of the best Universities in the universities’ ranking of the United Kingdom, EWU seems to have a lower level.

EWU has offer me a place in the degree I wish to do. What should I do?

My daughter has just done the rounds of University open days and interviews as she will start her degree this October. She has luckily been offered a place at The University of Bristol. The two universities you mention are not even on the same scale. Bristol University is seen as very, very good and is difficult to get into, the other one is way down in the rankings I’m afraid. Don’t want to put a damper on your offer, but I’m just being realistic. Without knowing what other offers you have or where you have applied to, it is difficult to judge. If you have no other offers, take this one. If you have offers at higher ranking universities, take one of those. People judge you on where you went, not what you studied I’m afraid.

A fast-paced cooking environment that will require culinary arts students to obtain knowledge quickly and study hard to retain a good amount of information in a very short period of time to accomplish their goals. A cooking profession that revolves around a kitchen environment, there are many colleges and universities around the world that offer degrees and certificate programs to prepare and solve a students career challenge. For the students culinary career, they will learn various skills and cooking techniques while studying the art of cooking. Students in culinary arts can choose from a variety of different cooking programs, also various specialties, and these different specialties have unique techniques and skills necessary for a students career.

Specific types of chefs and their specialties are the order of authority, and are typical in a restaurant kitchen environment. An executive chef has the highest position in the restaurant, and his/her responsibility is in the planning and preparation of the food and meals that are being served to their customers. A typical executive chefs duty is to create a menu, make sure the quality of the food is up to standard and deciding how much food is required for the service. Food preparation and managing a staff are some of the skills students will have to learn and acquire, if their goal is to become an executive chef.

In restaurants, directly supervised by an executive chef, most times, are sous-chefs and they will assist executive chefs with their daily restaurant duties, requesting food and kitchen supplies, planning the restaurant menu. Some of the responsibilities of the sous-chefs are to teach new skills and techniques to a kitchen staff. Supervision of other kitchen personnel such as specialty chefs and cooks are a sous-chefs responsibility. While students study at culinary colleges and Universities to become the next future sous-chefs, they will have to learn different cooking techniques and also teaching skills.

Specialty chefs also work in kitchens, and they can specialize in many areas of food including all the meat classes like beef, veal, lamb, poultry and fish to other areas from appetizers to pastries. Specialty chefs will prepare total and complete meals, to decorative food trays, and food garnishes for presentations to customers of the restaurant. Specialty chefs will help supervise other cooks and various staff members in the restaurant kitchen. At culinary arts colleges and universities, students who would like to become specialty chefs will study and learn about all the various aspects and techniques in cooking where they can make a decision on their specific specialty while at college or university.

Part of the professional kitchen staff are normal cooks who do most of the grunt work in regards to the cooking in kitchen restaurants. Cooks will prepare complete meals and then supervise other staff and help in the kitchens. It is a team effort from all kitchen staff to make a restaurant successful. Executive chefs and sous-chefs will start their culinary career as a kitchen cook in restaurants or other cooking locations, and it is usually one of the first steps into a successful culinary career once a student graduates from a culinary arts college or university.

To become aspiring professional chefs in this competitive world, students will prepare and learn all about the various aspects of culinary cooking. The proper techniques in cooking different types of foods, learn what food ingredients compliment one another and more. One of the most important parts of cooking is food safety and food safe courses are taken to make the cooking process food safe. Learn how to prepare food safely, learn proper cooking temperatures for various types of foods and the nutritional benefits, health aspects of different types of foods. Students have to know while preparing food, what is in the foods and how it will affect certain types of people with different health risks.

While fine tuning their cooking skills that students already possess, students at culinary colleges and universities will learn all about these important aspects of the art of cooking.

University Students, How long was the longest paper you have written besides your dissertation?

with one comment

I am an Elementary Special Education (CI) major at a small University. I’m currently in an Educational Psychology class and working on a 25 page paper on the topic "Is Parental Involvement always beneficial for students". Have you ever had to write something this long? For what class? What was the specific topic? Should I get used to this long of essays?

I wrote a 79 page lab report on gamma ray spectroscopy in my junior year of undergraduate, single spaced, compact figures and tables. It was for a radiation detection and measurement class, and specific topic was on gamma ray measurments of 7 radionuclides using a scintillating tube. Since this, I have written a whole lot of 30-40 page lab reports. I do not know about your major, but if you were in engineering, i would say you have not seen anything yet. I was not crazy either, everyone’s reports were of similar length, but maybe we were all just crazy. I also type up (physics) assignments for a particular class I am taking, they are usually 20 pages. In previous classes, some of my handwritten work including assignments and exams (i have small handwriting) have been 30 page average, and as long as 40-some pages. LOL at college. No one knows the work we do because no one is willing to believe it, i am not exaggerating, but it likely seems like i am. maybe i should just end this with, instead, LOL life.

What is the difference between college and university?

with 4 comments

No need to really expand. I just know that most people say they went to college when they mean some undergraduate school above hiskool. But then some say university. Whatz the diff? So if I go to UCLA, University of California Los Angeles, did I go to university and if I go to William Mary College did I also go to university?

I don’t know that there is a huge difference. I know where I live there is a community college–which is only 2years. you can only get your Associates degree there. Honestly, besides Nursing, an associates doesn’t lead to much around where I live anyways. I went to a University, which is a 4 year school to get a bachelors degree. It does offer graduate classes, so I am unsure if it has to offer graduate classes to be a university. The way I differentiate is that I see it as they are all colleges but only ones that offer a Bachelors and on (4years +) would be a university.

What University in Illinois is good for hooking up with a lot of girls?

with one comment

Im a student at a community college here in Illinois and I want to know about a University that is full with a lot of sluts. Any ideas? My priority is sex.

You don’t need to go to a University to find girls. If you or your parents are going to spend the money on a education, I suggest you concentrate on that. The only thing sluts will get you is a STD or AIDS. Your not thinking with your brain.
