Penn foster high school review?

kwhite

Preferably people who've attended please.

Why does it have such bad reviews? I mean there's some good reviews but there's soo many bad ones, And people Say colleges don't recognize penn foster diploma... Why?

I'm thinking about finishing my high school diploma there... I only have senior year left.

I've also contacted local community college that I'd like to attend and they all said they accept penn foster diplomas.


Is it hard, easy, intermediate?

Should I do just high school diploma, or high school diploma with healthcare concentration? (I want to further my education after high school and be in healthcare)


Thanks!

Answer
None of the online schools get good reviews. They are more interested in profit than education.

Your community college accepts their diploma becwise they admit anyone from the community, diploma or no.

You can bag your senior year altogether and attend community college now. That's what a lot of homeschool kids do.

Can I use this bag as my school bag?

I really like it, but I'm not sure if it's big enough for my school supplies. I'm very petite; 4'10 and a half and 92 pounds. I usually only put 2 to 4 composition notebooks, a pencil case, and my wallet in my bag. I don't put my binder in my bag; I carry it around.

Do you think I can use it as my school bag?

Answer
That's definitely a cute bag, but if one of the reviews on Zappos said this isn't a good work bag then it probably wouldn't be all that functional for a school bag either. You don't say what grade you are in (junior high, hs, college), but more than likely you'll need to carry a few text books. The site lists the measurements as 10.5 x 13.5." That maybe enough for notebooks, wallet, cosmetic bag and such... but probably not enough room for everything else you'll need in the course of the day.

One of the great things about Zappos is the amazing 365 day return policy. If you buy the bag and decide you don't like it or it isn't that functional for you, save the packaging and mail it back for a full refund (see Zappos' website for info). If it rips or starts to pill like one of the reviews state, you can always call the company and see if they will honor a faulty product return. In any case, happy shopping!

What kind of school bag can you recommend for me?

school bags reviews image

Q. I hate backpacks. I think they're stupid, annoying, and overrated. I hate em. I'm the type of student that is obsessed with school. I have at least one or two 2" binders in my bag. Plus like one book. Plus, a pencil case, planner, and the average things found in a teenage girls bag. But I hate backpacks. Any help?
I use the whole oversized bag thing, but, I don't want to damage any of my bags.

Answer
You could maybe get a tote or a messenger bag. Although a messenger bag would probably work better considering you need those particular school supplies and you might want to get organized.

Maybe something like this? A cute spacious bag related to school. It also has little zip pockets to store things in.

Or some kind of tote bag with different kinds of print on it.

I need some freshmen tips please help me?

Emmy

I'll be a freshmen next year and I'm so stressed out. Should I study during the summer vacation? What do I need to take with me in my high school bag? What if I won't make any friends?

Answer
deep breath, you will do fine :) it seems scary, but it really isn't. If you are in honors courses and they ask you to read or do work over summer, then do it early so you don't waste your summer, and review before your first day. My high school has lockers, so assuming yours does, you can put most of your books and things in there, but i would recommend a backpack too, because it makes things easier. Before school starts, go and look at where all your classes are, so you aren't more stressed on the first day. good luck, and it will be fine :)

What is the best dog food to feed my German Shepherd and why?

Wintergirl

Aside from cooking her meat myself, what's the best quality dry dog food? I just spent $45 on a bag of Royal Canin, and Costco's dog food has chicken & chicken meal as the 1st 2 ingredients, while Royal Canin's 2nd ingredient is rice!

Answer
There is no single food that is "best". For example, some dogs thrive on grain-free foods, while grain-free is too rich for other dogs. What you want to find is the high-quality food that *your dog* does best on.

I recommend feeding dry food. It's healthier for the gums and teeth.

---

On choosing a good dog food:
Read the ingredients on the food you buy. Go with a high quality dog food. A grain should not be in the first couple ingredients ingredient (corn and such are mainly fillers, dogs don't digest it well). Avoid foods that have a lot of "by products" listed.

Here is an article about byproducts:
http://www.dogfoodproject.com/index.php?page=ingrd

And an article on what ingredients to avoid:
http://www.dogfoodproject.com/index.php?page=badingredients

---

Some GOOD foods are :
* Merrick - http://www.merrickpetcare.com/
* Solid Gold - http://www.solidgoldhealth.com/
* Canidae - http://www.canidae.com/
* Timberwolf - http://timberwolforganics.com/
* Orijen - http://www.championpetfoods.com/orijen/orijen/
* Wellness - http://www.omhpet.com/wellness/
* Chicken Soup brand - http://www.chickensoupforthepetloverssoul.com/
* Blue Buffalo - http://www.bluebuff.com/
* Innova - http://www.naturapet.com/brands/innova.asp
* Innova EVO - http://www.naturapet.com/brands/evo.asp

Or check this website for good foods: http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_reviews/
(I recommend only feeding foods rated 4, 5, or 6 stars. Anything 3 stars or less, I would stay away from.)

---

Stay away from grocery stores brands. They are low-quality foods chalk full of fillers, preservatives, dyes, etc.. (Grocery store foods are those like Beneful, Old Roy, Alpo, Pedigree, Purina, etc.)

Beware "premium" foods. "Premium" does not mean good nutritionally, and is not a nutritionally high quality food. It has the same types of ingredients as grocery store foods, just a bit better quality of those not-so-good ingredients. (Premium foods are those like Iams, Eukanuba, Science Diet, etc..)

Another thing to be wary of: A lot of vets will recommend what they sell in their office. They get profit from the brands they keep on their shelves, that's why they push it. Truth is, vet schools don't focus a lot on nutrition. It's not saying that a vet is a bad vet because he recommends those foods, a lot of vets just are told "this is good food", so they pass the message along without proper nutrition knowledge. Also, some dog food brands (like Hills) support vet schools, so vets have heard of it from the time they start college, which makes them think it's good as well.

---

Higher quality food may seem more expensive at first, but it evens out. The higher quality the food, the less fillers eaten (and therefore the less poop comes out the other end). Your dog eats more to try to get the nutrition it needs, and most of the food just passes right on through. Also, it will make your animals healthier, so you save money on vet bills in the long run.

---

"Big box" petstores like Petco and Petsmart rarely have quality foods. (I do believe that PetCo sells "Solid Gold" brand, which is a quality food, but most of the foods aren't.)

Also, grocery stores and Walmart aren't good places to buy food either.

Your best bets for getting quality dog food are:
- small, locally owned petstores
- dog boutiques
- farm supply stores

---

When switching foods, do it gradually. I do this over about a two week timespan:
25% food A, 75% food B
50% food A, 50% food B
75% food A, 25% food B
100% food A

How should I pack my bag for school?

school bags reviews image

darakristi

I need to pack my bag for school, but I like being handy and prepared. What should I bring in my bag, besides the obvious, pen, pencils, and paper?

Answer
bottled water, a light jacket (compact so it will fit in your bag), small calculator, perhaps some highlighters, sticky notes, and index cards. tissues and a light snack are also good to bring. furthermore, as a precaution, it is always good to have an emergency dollar or two in a safe part of your bag. also, i really like to have a mini pencil sharpener with me, so i don't have to fight my way through all the desks to the pencil sharpener. just make sure not to empty shavings onto the floor. lol. and, as much as i hate to disagree, the first person is WRONG. do not bring medications to school with you, unless you're older, like in college where they don't have rules against medications. in grades up to 12, however, most schools will punish you for having meds, sometimes even cough drops. there are other things to use that are technically not medication. these are a few to check out (make sure you are not allergic):

http://www.shoporganic.com/product/badger_headache_soother_balm/personal_aromatherapy (badger headache soother. i use this stuff for headaches all the time at school.)
peppermints, for a sore throat.
water, as it can always help.

depending on age...keys to the house? wallet? cell phone?

finally, a folder/binder works wonders. if you get dividers, then you can divide all your classes up, and then by assignments, notes, homework, handouts/worksheets, and reviews/ quizzes. also, i bring a planner with me to keep my assignments in order. hope i helped! =)

What is the common high school supply list?

Jade

I'm a freshman going into high school and i don't really know what to get besides pencils and paper.

Answer
At school each of your teachers will tell you specific things that you need. However, I can give you general guidelines.

You will probably need a backpack or tote bag. I suggest a backpack if you are going to have a lot of books or binders to carry home.

A folder & notebook for each class. Some teachers require binders though, so you'll have to wait to hear specifics.

Obviously pens & pencils. Make sure you have blue & black ink pens because if your school does in-class essays, you will need those.

Math supplies (calculator, ruler, protractor, etc.). Oh, and unlike the other person said, you probably don't need a * special * calculator (aka a graphing calculator) until junior year or you take algebra 2. my school recommended it for algebra one, however the teachers provided them when necessary. Until then, I suggest just having a scientific calculator which I assume you have from middle school.

If you want, get post it notes for marking your spot in books. Get index cards for reviewing. Get highlighters for jazzing up your notes. And get loose-leaf paper if you're using a binder.

So, goodluckk in highschool my friend!
