College students, please look at this…?

The following is a list of schools I am considering applying to. If anyone goes to any of these schools I would greatly appreciate hearing your comments on them. How challenging are they academically? What’s the social scene like? How accessible are your professors? What’s the campus like? Overall, do you like the school? Any other comments? Also, if you go to another school and like it, please tell me the name of it and answer the questions that I have already presented.

Boston University (Boston, MA)

Carnegie Mellon University (Pittsburgh, PA)

Columbia University (New York, NY)

Marlboro College (Marlboro, VT)

North Carolina State University (Raleigh, NC)

Ohio State University (Columbus, OH)

Syracuse University (Syracuse, NY)

University of Washington (Seattle, WA)

I thank you greatly in advance for anyone who answers this. I will choose a best answer.

BU: good school lots to offer in terms of activities and its in boston so the city and everything is right there…the dorms stink especially for underclassman alot of people live off campus…the fitness ctr is awesome (new in 05) with a variety of classes like rock climbing or boxing or hip hop and they have a good amount of intramurals…the classes are usually big lectures with discussions sections…for applying try to look at other schools within BU like the school of management or college of general studies(CGS) or sargent (health sciences) instead of art & sciences b/c its a pain to transfer (except for CGS which you have to transfer) between the different schools.AP’s are accepted with a 4 or above…i go to BU and if you have any questions just email me as for the other schools…

carnegie melon is a good business school or sciences

columbia is really hard to get into but its in an nice location

ohio state is really really big and football apparently really good

syracuse is nice but in the middle of nowhere even though its in a city

good luck with applying

Most stock investors lose money. (Let that sink in for a minute.) You need to ask yourself what it is that you are trying to accomplish. If you are looking for a safe place to put some money, look for a bank with a good rate (ING is a good one) or get a CD. If you are looking to learn, find a broker that has “paper trading” where you can invest with play money. The vast majority of investors have poor results because they buy impulsively and have no plan for exiting their trades. (You bought XYZ stock and it went to $100. Now what? Sell it? Buy more?) I cannot teach you an investing strategy in a few paragraphs. There are entire libraries written on the subject. I can recommend a good place to start. I would suggest that you get Investors Business Daily and read it cover to cover everyday, for at least a week. It sounds harder than it is – IBD is thin and written at 6th grade level. They provide an outline of a sound investing strategy. If you subscribe, you can sometimes find a deal where they will provide a decent book by William O’Neil on how to invest. (Personally, I don’t recommend investing in their CANSLIM training program that they offer. It’s a sink hole for more money. There are better training programs.) Your school library might have IDB for free. Personally, I like the idea of combining stock with options. You have the ability to protect your profits while improving your profit potential. That’s how the “big guys” invest – Hedge Funds. However, that strategy takes a lot more time to learn and manage. It’s not appropriate for a college student unless you are an MBA. Good luck!

I don’t know anyone who goes to those schools but you might want to consider one where you parents live so that you get instate tuition. I have to pay out of state and it is completely ridiculous.
