Do you think I could get accepted in University of Hawaii at Manoa? -

I am not in-state. I am doing the Army ROTC, and my GPA is a 3.4-3.5I am the top half of my graduating class.4 AP Classes. Good extra-curriculars.Half Korean and white.

Well, you could get in. The question is whether you would want to attend UH as an undergrad. There are hundreds of colleges and universities in North America with a more rigorous curriculum in most departments, stronger reputations, much more vibrant campus lives, better availability of campus housing, easier parking, more money for scholarships and other aid, and lower costs of living. UH Manoa is the school for you in a few very specific situations: you want to major in a subject in which Manoa is particularly strong (astronomy, marine sciences, Asian languages, Hawaiian studies); you have close family and friends on Oahu; you cannot live without poi, poke, and pipikaula on a regular basis; surfing is your life; you feel at home among the working class Asian, Pacific Islander, and multiracial cultures that dominate Hawaii; or you really feel compelled to immerse yourself in a foreign culture without actually leaving the United States. UH Manoa is great for graduate school, but for the typical undergrad, college life could be so much better somewhere else.

Unless you intend to study Marine Biology or Travel Tourism, you would probably find a better fit at another school with a 3.4 and 1800+ SAT.I have a freind who went to UH to study physics and was terribly disappointed becasue most of the course work was covered in her highschool AP physics courses.Of course all of this changes if you just really want to be in Hawaii

You seriously have to ask this question? 3.4 GPA and an 1830 SAT score and you have to ask this question??? Of course you can get in. Any dumby can get into UH. I bet a 2.5 GPA and 900 SAT score will get you into UH. You should think of going to a much better school like UCLA, USC, CAL, or University of Washington.

Ari is half right... you should have no problem getting into UH Manoa. But he is wrong about the standards. You need at least a 3.0. At least that is what I was told when my son applied. That was a few years ago, but I doubt it has changed much.

New Jersey cab fare. Help!? -

I want to visit a friend in New Jersey and need cab fare estimates.My train will stop at the Trenton Transit Center in Trenton, NJ 08609.I need to know how much a cab would cost from there to Dina Place, Jackson, NJ 08527.I ve looked and it s about a 40 minute ride, so it s going to cost quite a bit I m sure.Also, if anyone has any suggestions as far as a cheaper way to get there or to somewhere closer that I could take a cab from, please tell me!Thank you for the help!

Can i bring a snowball back to florida on my vacation from smugglers notch vermont? -

and are coolers allowed on planes

First, you would need to take a mini-fridge. Or you could bring a cooler. Keep the snowball in the fridge or cooler, and then quickly transport it to your freezer. If the plane attendants don t mind, hook up your mini fridge to the plane s outlet.

The problem is that you can t bring dry ice on airplanesNow if you re driving you can just pack it in a cooler w/dry ice and you re good to goI once drove from Chicago to Houston with a couple of pints of pre-corporate Ben Jerry s packed in dry ice to prove to certain people that B J s was superior to the local product aka Blue Bonnet

Sure, if you have a cooler it will be know problem...My family was actually coming up from texas and the kids have never seen snow and by the time they came it was all melted so i made some snow balls and kept them in the freezer...we had a snow ball fight..good luck

Yes, but you must consult with the Russian spies. Make sure that they give you permission, and they should advise you on the proper way to go about this.Best of luck.

If you can prevent it from melting by all means do so.

Yeah, stick it down your pants.

if you have a portable freezer maybe. But Why?

that was really random.....and no!

no

you could but it would melt on the way thier

You could try, but it will probably melt en route

shure its a free country

How much is a letter to Maryland from New Mexico? -

Hey,I m trying to send a letter from Alamogordo, which is in New Mexico, to Maryland.You know, the whole postsecret-thing.So, anyone got a clue how much it costs, which stamp I have to use?Thanks,Dani

A letter sent anywhere in the US is $.44 as long as it is under 1 ounce.A postcard costs $.28 as long as it is under the maximum size: 6 inches long by 4 1/4 inches high by .016 inch thick.

48 cents i believe but after what e-mails did to the post office it should be 48 bucks.only thing cheaper would be a post card but then everyone could read it.Is that what you meant by post-secret?

My friends went to virgina from washington,how can I help them get home? -

They drove their car and they hit a big object in the road and ruined two tires and a brakeline,by the time they paid for the repairs they don t have the money to return and I don t have the money to help them ,I just paid rent,Does anone know of a way to get them the expenses to get home before Christmas?

Have them contact Travelers Aid. They may be able to help out.

Don t they have parents ? All they need is about $50 for gas. They can t be too far from DC if they re in Virginia.

Contact their parents to pay for it. Its not your responsibility.

You have done your best now it is their problem.

i m already on my way to pick them up *beep beep*
