I want to take a Concurrent Education French course but it's only available at this ugly campus in my area. Taking a concurrent education prog. seems better than taking an extra year of teacher's college. It doesn't seem like a lot of time to help develop teaching skills.
Continue to work hard to become a real pro! If only I was good at art... XD How do you find time to go on gaia while going to uni as well?
What do you mean by state school? You mean a school within that state? And a question... In the U.S. people are always talking about going to college but in Canada, people are always talking about uni. Do you use the term college for uni as well? In Canada, uni is expensive too. I think it's about 40 000 a year. Not sure. Do you get student loans to pay for postsecondary education?
Let's see....people think that Canada's all nature with trees and mountains. Sure we have lots of trees but they're all being chopped down by lumber companies and the only mountains that I know of in Canada are the Rockies in British Columbia. Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Ottawa .etc. .etc. are big cities. We don't have a recession as bad as the U.S. I believe we have stronger laws for businesses and customers than the U.S. That was probably why we didn't fall into such a deep recession. We have lots of govt grants?? But that all comes from taxes. We don't have to pay THOUSANDS of dollars for medical care but that's also because it comes from taxes. In Canada, it's easier to get into university but harder to graduate. In the U.S. you have the SAT's right? Is that an exam that you have to pass in order to go to uni? In Canada, the uni looks at your report card marks from gr.12 and 11. Some schools will make you go through an exam though.
Another thing. People think that Canada is a really safe and peaceful country. Well, in Toronto, there are more gangsters in the poorer areas. If you go outside of Toronto into the suburbs though, it's like you're in another...world? Everything is newer and random people that you've never met before say 'hello' to you. I'm making Toronto sound like a bad place. It just depends on where you go to...though it could be better. Sorry for talking so much. Tell me about the U.s!
