Google Day 2

Goals:

1.) How do you get a scholarship?
2.) What is the minimum GPA required to enter a good college?
3.) What areas of college are the most helpful on your resume?

Links:

1.) Link #1 is here. This is a very helpful website, which allows for you to investigate the different kinds of scholarships, how they are administered, and how priceless they are. Several people say how important it is to receive a scholarship. If it is through academics, athletics, or any external source, a scholarship is still something to be very proud of. Especially if few people get accepted.

2.) Link #2 is here. This link shows to us a chart that specifies the percentage of GPA that is required to enter a good college. This website has been updated recently, so it should not be subject to any change. Basically, colleges work on a 4.0 standard GPA grading system, which can later be classified as an A, B, C, D, or F, sort of grading system. The letters and numbers vary, depending on where you are in school.

3.) Link #3 is here. This link is very helpful, because, it shows to you the different ways to help you organize your resume. From high school scholarships, to citing your references. Several people say that organizing your resume, is the main key that is required to get a good job. So, why don't you just make your resume great?! By following this link, and by following the steps on the webpage, it will be very simple to get your life on track!

What I have Learned:

I learned today, the importance of receiving a scholarship, and how important it is to be recognized by a college to receive one. I also learned that it is very important to excel at something that you are good at, in order for a successful college to be able to recognize the potential that you have. Your resume also strengthens your future choices, and it also affects the slight percentage that you have, in order to enter a good job. Your GPA is very important too. It is the basic requirement to measure your levels of intelligence, to see if you are up to the challenge of completing your college courses.

Goal For Next Class:

1.) To learn if one person can receive a scholarship, outside of standard, academic activities.

Well, that's it for this blog post! Until the next one! Bye!

Google Day 1

Colleges And Careers:

Goals For The Day:

1.) Which careers receive the most income?
2.) What colleges provide the most support for specific careers?
3.) What specific careers are both fun and beneficial?

Useful Links:

1.) Link #1 is here. This website is very useful to apply and to list the top 10 highest paying jobs currently in the U.S. Currently, the highest paying job in the state are doctors and surgeons, followed by dentists and orthodontists, and finally by chief executive officers. Training for these high-paying jobs, often insist upon greater training time. For doctors, it would be more around from 11 years, or higher.    

2.) Link #2 is here. This website is a college-centered website which specializes in the areas of helping college students achieve college-centered jobs. It also offers up useful career advice from a parent and a student, about the steps that they feel one should take in order to receive greater job opportunities in the future.  

3.) Link #3 is here. This link/website is very interesting, and useful to me as well. Because it depicts the college career opportunities on studying for a field of archaeological research as well as development, and uncovering. Since these people are hired by the government they receive substantial annual income. But, when they do see and rediscover a dated artifact or specimen, they end up receiving government money for being placed in a museum.

4.) Link #4 is here. I feel that this website is very useful because it clearly lists out the answers that most students have to ask an archaeology professional. From, how much they get paid, to how much do they travel, even to how long they work. (About 8 hour days).

5.) Link #5 is here. I feel that this is a very useful website if you wish to become a doctor in college. This website will list out, and provide for you, some of the best medical schools in the country in order to make it a much easier decision.

Evidence Of What I Learned:

I learned several things today. Especially on how picking the right career is a lot harder than it looks! If you end up looking for a job that provides you with the most income, but that suits you the most, then visit link #1. It will be sure to set you up! Or if you truly want to get deep and dirty, then stick your hand into archaeology. Although not many of them travel frequently, but they still get to handle useful artifacts! There are so many careers you can choose, and the best part of it is, you have a whole lot of time! But when the decision comes, lets hope you've made a choice. Because when you've found something fun and exciting, lets hope it is as inviting! Colleges can also support you, on your life changing decisions. with some internship credit, to see if this job is for you.

Goals For Next Class:

1.) I hope to learn all about how internship credit can affect your future resume.

Well, that's it for this blog post! Until the next one! Bye!
