I never really got D or F in any courses at gallaudet.

Many students did not do well in their classes I knew who of those.

Some of them think they are leader and being a greek. And some do want go graduate school but they have failure class record on official transcript.

Will graduate school see your grade D or F on official transcript?

No wonder...why did women give up their adminstration career if they want grad and phd but do not want GRE?

They will be end up in working at school for the deaf or acting or easy career.

if they got master, they will have high salary of job equal to men. I hope women can have money same as me.

I wasn't surprise why people are not really interested in continuing education after bachelors? Then end up in asking people for money...

That is a fallacy. Women never earn equal to what men earn. In fact a woman with a Master's earns about the same as what a man with a Bachelor's can earn. It also depends on what career path you choose. The field I am in is nortorious for low salaries.

they can notice if any student isn't really motivated then not worth for them go grad school

Because grad school required students to pass high grade class or at least B every semester if they must study and work hard, no time party.

no, i do not think so because it is dissolved from affiliated with yale university many years ago. Later, this university had tried to be "Harvard of the deaf" then disappeared due to over-enrollment into preparatory program back in 80s, it seems not look like high requirement like Harvard anymore. It turned into moderate selective university and still like liberal arts college before university in 1988. Gallaudet do not meet standard and have extended schools and hard to find qualified students to look better, it cannot be met qualification to become 9th ivy league school, it is supposed to be before cornell in 1865 but not successful because of money, decide to use money from yale university. Now, some people have dream and plan to develop gallaudet better make bigger in the furue but it is not easy to develop and extended place.

I see. why did you pick Gallaudet University instead of Ivy League schools?

*facepalm*

Gallaudet University is considered as Ivy League school NOT. Gallaudet U is still a good school for some certain people who have very passions about their majors such as Deaf studies that is very good one. However, I had no idea what is going on with Gallaudet after 1996. I am sure that Gallaudet U has some good addition of courses and majors.

think about this. the same president of gally was president at NTID. and what was NTID ?? a AOS school. on a level with a junior college. if the present president of NTID could not get NTID back to AAS at least then Gally has no hope. when will Gally become an AOS college? didn't they have accredition problems recently?
both Gally and NTID are only interested in the bodies that will keep them getting government funding. at least NTID is a way to get cheap tuition at RIT

Yes, you can take other courses... as long as they're allowed.

Some courses are considered electives and can be taken by anyone. Some courses aren't electives, but are not restricted only to students by major. So, those can also be taken by anyone.

I wouldn't encourage you to take a lot of them though because that would likely extend the time it takes to finish your degree. There are some students who think that their related courses are too hard that they decide to have 75% easy classes and 25% related classes... leading them to spending 7 to 10 years just to get an AOS degree.

One guy took 7 years to get his AOS degree and boasted that he would be going to RIT to get his BS. Unfortunately, his AOS degree lacked the liberal arts requirements needed to enter RIT. So, he had to go back to NTID and try to finish those classes. I don't think he ever did go back though.

What they usually say to students who take those tests are that the tests are "not graded". What they mean is that they aren't graded to be applied to their GPA and that they are actually evaluated based on how well they do on the test to determine where they are to be placed. Sadly, a lot of students think... "Not graded? Fine, I'll just bullshit my way through it and be on my way!" So, they do poorly on those tests sending them back to the lowest level courses offered.

I planned on finishing my AA in a community college and then transfering to a University. Before I could take any courses I had to take a Math and English placement test. I did fine in English, but had to take remedial Math courses and it won't count towards my degree until I get my math where it needs to be. And now that I'm trying to enlist into the Navy I have to take an ASVAB which again tests me on my English and Math (along with other subjects, but only English and Math count towards my score)

Never rely on yahoo answers unless you want opinions. It's not good for facts unless you are trying to do calculus or direct statements.

You could go to a few sites to check on college admission rankings, though. collegeboard, college confidential, and usnews (requires subscription). Their data is collected directly from the school, I believe. For direct data on academia performance you'd probably have to go to admissions directly or attend their board meetings.

Here's a few examples -

When I was going to my county's community college I had to take the Math & English placement tests. I failed both. What I am happy about is that since I have changed majors, from Early Childhood Ed to ASL Interpreting. And I switched schools, I don't have to take a math class ever again! YAY!

Don't rag on the "junior colleges." We have excellent community colleges where I live. The professors at the community colleges are paid more than the professors at the state colleges. There are some good professors at our community college and they are accessible. Yea, I picked up some credits there.

Some graduate programs require GRE. A lot of writing research reports, I am telling you, Matajan.
