Melissia Anson's blog ::Ecology Course Online






Melissia Anson's blog ::Ecology Course Online










Your               child               is               a               star               student               and               the               high               school               teachers               have               recommended               him               for               AP               classes.

Initially               this               sounds               great-college               credit               for               high               school               work               if               they               pass               the               exam.

However,               taking               Advanced               Placement               courses               may               not               be               in               your               child's               best               interest.

Sometimes,               dual               enrollment               at               the               local               community               college               makes               more               sense.

Pros               of               AP               Courses
               College               bound               high               school               juniors               and               seniors               are               eligible               for               AP               courses.

Underclassmen               can               take               them               too,               but               it               is               highly               unlikely               that               they               will               meet               the               prerequisites               that               most               public               high               schools               have.

Students               who               take               Advanced               Placement               courses               and               take               the               exam               receive               some               college               credit               for               the               high               school               course.
               Taking               harder               courses               always               looks               good               on               college               applications.

AP               courses               are               weighted               so               having               an               A               average               in               an               Advance               Placement               Biology               class               adds               more               than               4.0               to               the               students               overall               GPA               (grade               point               average).
               Cons               of               Advanced               Placement               Courses
               There               is               a               downside               to               taking               advanced               classes.

Although               the               student               earns               college               credit               for               the               course,               it               is               up               to               the               individual               college               to               determine               how               much               credit               will               be               given.

If               a               child               fails               the               AP               exam,               they               are               not               eligible               for               college               credit,               but               they               still               receive               high               school               credit.
               There               is               a               fee               to               take               the               AP               exam.

Parents               are               responsible               for               paying               the               exam               fees.

Most               public               school               systems               do               not               have               the               funds               to               pay               for               your               child               to               take               the               exam.
               Even               if               a               student               takes               an               Advance               Placement               course               and               passes               the               exam,               they               may               be               required               to               take               a               similar               course               in               college.

This               will               depend               on               their               field               of               study.
               Other               Options
               There               are               other               ways               for               students               to               receive               college               credit               while               in               high               school.

Many               areas               allow               high               school               students               to               dual               enroll               in               a               local               community               college               or               university               if               they               meet               a               certain               GPA               requirement.

Dual               enrollment               has               advantages               over               AP               courses.
               Full               college               credit               is               given               to               college               courses               taken               by               students               who               dual               enroll.

As               long               as               they               maintain               a               2.5               GPA               in               the               course,               the               college               will               give               full               credit.

Many               school               districts               have               agreements               that               allow               academically               eligible               students               to               take               college               courses               on               campus               for               free               or               at               a               greatly               reduced               tuition               rate.

Students               who               dual               enroll               as               juniors               may               be               able               to               enter               college               with               a               full               semester               of               college               already               completed.
               Homeschoolers
               Homeschoolers               can               take               AP               courses.

Parents               should               check               with               the               local               high               school               or               college               to               see               which               exams               are               offered.

The               exam               fees               and               registration               are               the               responsibility               of               the               homeschool               parent.
               Free               AP               courses               are               available               for               homeschoolers               from               HippoCampus.org.

They               offer               a               good               selection               of               courses               for               homeschoolers.
               Home               school               students               can               also               dual               enroll               in               college               courses.

There               are               limits               to               how               many               courses               a               dual               enrolled               child               can               take               at               a               college.

This               is               a               great               way               to               prove               that               your               homeschooled               child               can               handle               college               level               work.
               Deciding               to               take               AP               courses               is               a               big               decision.

Parents               and               students               should               weight               their               options               carefully               and               determine               the               best               options               for               their               child.

    Melissia Anson's blog ::Women and the Web










    With               one               of               the               worst               recessions               in               our               history,               many               Americans               have               found               that               they               weren't               as               prepared               financially               as               they               may               have               thought.

    Unfortunately               many               young               adults               are               uneducated               when               it               comes               to               financial               matters.

    Students               graduate,               get               married,               buy               new               cars               and               a               house.

    The               next               thing               they               know               they               miss               a               paycheck               and               fall               behind.

    Here               are               some               tips               to               help               get               through               tough               times               and               prepare               for               your               future.

    Take               Control               of               Your               Finances
                   Know               where               your               money               is               going.

    Sit               down               and               figure               out               a               budget,               remember               to               factor               in               all               expenses               including               the               unexpected.

    Keep               credit               under               control.

    It's               okay               to               listen               to               others               advice,               but               remember               it's               your               future               and               your               decision               to               make.

    Rainy               Day               Fund
                   Start               an               easily               accessible               savings               for               those               unexpected               expenses.

    It               could               be               your               car               breaking               down,               a               necessary               home               repair,               or               any               other               unexpected               event               that               your               wouldn't               have               included               in               your               regular               budget.

    Try               not               to               use               money               for               retirement               or               other               investments               unless               absolutely               necessary.

    Understand               Your               Taxes
                   Sit               down               with               an               accountant               or               do               the               research               on               your               own,               but               don't               be               surprised               by               a               tax               burden.

    Be               sure               you're               withholdings               are               sufficient.

    For               other               income,               be               sure               you're               setting               enough               aside               to               cover               tax               liabilities.

    Always               contact               an               accountant               if               you               don't               understand               something.

    Protect               Your               Income               and               Wealth
                   Accidents               happen,               protect               yourself               with               disability,               life,               and               health               insurance.

    Most               people               are               well               aware               of               the               benefits               of               health               insurance,               but               may               not               realize               a               need               for               disability               or               life               insurance.

    Many               people               don't               consider               their               lost               income               in               case               of               an               accident.

    Could               you               survive               financially               for               an               extended               period               if               you               were               to               be               hurt               and               unable               to               work?

    If               something               were               to               happen               to               you,               would               your               family               have               the               means               to               support               themselves?

    These               are               question               you               want               to               answer.

    One               advantage               is               premiums               are               often               lower               when               starting               a               policy               at               a               young               age.

    Situations               differ               from               person               to               person               and               you               should               consult               a               financial               adviser               to               determine               what               is               best               for               you.

    Retirement               Planning               Starts               Now
                   Many               people               find               themselves               in               a               tough               situation               come               retirement               time.

    Get               a               head               start               on               saving.

    Many               employers               offer               401k               plans,               some               with               matching               contributions.

    It's               hard               to               beat               a               free               match.

    Employee               stock               option               plans               (ESOP)               are               another               way               to               put               money               away               for               the               future.

    I               would               suggest               a               separate               investment               if               you're               looking               to               day               trade               or               take               high               risk               investments.

    Never               risk               more               than               you're               willing               to               lose.

    Again               you               should               consult               a               financial               planner               for               more               information               and               to               set               up               an               investment               strategy               catered               to               you               personally.

    Plan               for               a               better               future
    Remember,               you               don't               have               to               be               rich               to               be               financially               responsible.

    You               can               start               investing               with               a               small               amount               and               build               over               time,               after               all               you               are               starting               early.
