Dearborn. If you can, take the class they ususally offer just before you take the test. It will help you big time. A friend of mine failed the test three times. Finally got him to take the class and he passed.

Go to Barnes & Noble.  Get someone to help you pick out the correct SPARK CHARTS for the subjects you will be tested on.  Good Luck!

The life and Health is the harder of the two exams.  P and C was pretty easy.  I don't know of any free sites but I got a lot of use out of the audio cd's.  Practical knowledge is not enough for this test.  Most of the test are over things that you will never use but good info never the less.  Good luck.

I took 5 highers and had to spend whole year studying to bloody pass them!!!! I would recommend taking 1 easy subject to free your mind from all the hard work. English isn't very demanding as its more what you know, you can't really study that much for it. Goodluck!!!!! i'm on maternity leave right now!

Get one of theose SAT prep books and read through it.  Then study the areas that seem foreign or new to you.  Then definitely get a good night's sleep and eat breakfast.  Good Luck!

I imagine they are as hard as getting the life, health and insurance license. I didn't take any classes for that, but I do know that if you don't pass the test the first time for the series 7 or 63, when you reschedule the next test, the next test will not be the same as the original test you took. No matter what, they are not easy and are not meant to be easy.

Most fav: Internal medicine and psychiatry\nLeast Fav: Clinical laboratory (its about how to design your lab, designing lab investigation forms, lab ethics, lab investigations and everything lab...simply sucks! I am going to be a doctor why give me the trouble to go through what a lab tech should do?)

It really does depend on what you plan to study and the possibility of doing an internship within the area. If you're planning on studying something that is more medical or business focused, then I would stick to UT, but if it is education or liberal arts then go with BG. The west end of Toledo is probably the nicest part of the city, which is also where the university is located. BG is OK, but nothing exciting...plan on driving to Toledo to do any major retail shopping. The roads are worse in BG in the winter time since it is more rural and the snow drifts can become a nightmare. My brother went to UT for engineering and he seemed to like it. I have friends that went to BG and they seemed to like it as well. It really depends on your plan of study and your comfort level when you visit the university. I would really recommend that you visit both and talk to someone from the department in which you study. You'll get a much better feel and you'll probably feel better about your decision as well.

Get a mosby study guide.  It has great information.  When I studied for my nationals, I zerox several copies of the questions and answered them over and over.  Don't you hate it though when several of the answers are true, but you have to pick the best one?  Good luck to you.

PRAXIS I-\nI went in cold and passed.\nIt is similar to the SAT, so I'd suggest getting an SAT study guide.\n\n\nAs for the PRAXIS II- oy!\nIt was probably the hardest test I ever took in my life.\n\nYou'll need to study Economics, Psychology, World History, US History, and Civics.

Well, Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue is a great little town to live in, on the water, quaint.  The campus is very separate from the main McGill Campus downtown...in fact the downtown campus students tend to make fun of the MacDonald campus, but they don't really have much connection other than the name.  MacDonald is connected to John Abbott, the CEGEP, so there are younger students around (CEGEP students are around 17-19 years old).  You're on the island of Montreal, but getting downtown if you don't have a car is long.  There's a shuttle that McGill offers between campuses in case you have classes downtown. Otherwise there's the 211 bus that will take you to a Metro stop - it can take between 45 minutes and 1 hour and a half depending on traffic.  My friend did environmental studies there and enjoyed it.  She spent her time between both campuses.  She was able to do lots of field work as well.  Montreal is a great place to live, you don't have to speak French.  In fact Ste-Anne's is in the "West Island" which is where the majority of the English population lives.  However if you want to learn French, the resources are there, you just need to take advantage of them.  Plus, if you're American even the international tuition will be cheaper than most American schools and also McGill still has its reputation as one of the best schools in Canada.  It's not easy though, you are marked harder here and there tends to be more competition between students.  Other statements about McGill are true - there's no school spirit, the football games aren't important (it is Canada after all...you're better off going to a Hockey game if you want to see a game).  The student body is made up of everyone from everywhere.  It's a very international school.  You'll get Anglophones and Francophones from quebec, tons of students from the rest of Canada, especially Ontario and all over the world. Students from Europe, Africa, Australia, South America, the Middle-East and Asia are just as common.  If you're American and planning on coming to study in Canada it's always good to be sympathetic and respectful of the country you're planning to live in.  Despite our proximity, we really are two different countries with very different value systems.

hmm, well, the only place i know is in Dearborn Heights. it's near Fairlane Towne Center. It's beside the park. it's an indoor skating rink, and if you go there, you'll probably be able to get either classes or info on where you can get them.

I never took either one. Have you transferred your credits from your Jr. college? This is what I did and I didn't need the tests. I have heard the SAT is easier. Most colleges should be able to set you up with the schedule, or I am sure there is something on line. Check the web site. There should be testing dates and locations there.\nBest wishes going back to school. I have started this too, but I am a few years older than you. But It Is better to do it while you are younger!

You should definitely buy the 2007 edition as there are changes to the GRE this year.  I know for a fact that they are changing how tests are done (there is only one test at a set time per day as opposed to the current random questions from the test bank).  They are also playing around with the analytical sections but I'm not sure if that has changed yet.\n\nAs for me, I used Kaplan and did well.  I don't think the brand matters as much.  They essentially say the same thing; you just have to find the one that works with your personality.
