How did you make this list without knowing anything about the economics, politics and etc. about them? Study the countries before deciding you would love to live there. Also figure how you are going to support yourself there and if you can speak their language. I will add that there are more people from these countries moving to the USA that there US Americans moving there, but don't consider the USA - it is crowded enough.

Does going to competitive colleges like Rice U increase career opportunities?
Does going to competitive colleges like Rice U increase career opportunities?
First I would like to say that I am a Texan. My "ultimate dream school" would be Rice University. However, I don't feel like I have the grades for this school. I mean, I don't have terrible grades but Rice has really high standards. What do y'all think? Do I have some chance of admission to the following schools: Rice U, Baylor, UT Austin, Colombia U, USC? To help you decide, here are some of my current academic statistics as a senior: --GPA 3.65 (unweighted and on a 4 pt scale) --ACT 29 --Taken all honors/AP classes since freshman year --Involved in Key club, Earth Club, and Hispanic Club. I am secretary for Hispanic Club. --Inducted last year into Spanish NHS (I am treasurer) and received a highly regarded school award that recognizes student's who make a true impact in the school community --This summer I received from collegeboard my certificate stating I am an "AP Scholar" --Played Cross Country --I might be inducted into regular NHS (National Honor Society) this year --Work part time *************************************** My dad says I should just go to a community college and then transfer to the local public university. I told him going to competitive colleges like Rice U will increase my job opportunities after graduation than going to a small public university. Is this true? **************************************** Please give me your honest opinion on which colleges I am "MOST LIKELY" to get accepted to. Also explain why you think so. What are some last minute things I could improve on that could definitely help me?

You've got just about everything you need to get into any college you want. If you really want to go to one of the universities then you need to just apply to all of them and see which one accepts you. If two accept you then great you have a choice. However, your dad is right, it really won't matter in the end where you get your degree, most companies just care what you got, not where you got it.

With your strong background, you should certainly try for a competitive university. There are at least three reasons for doing so: 1. Competing will sharpen your skills...not only educationally, but socially and psychologically. You will be at the top of your game. This will be especially valuable when you enter the work force. 2. You will meet people who will be able to help you after you graduate. These include not only faculty and administration, but your classmates. Remember too: Competitive colleges usually have very active alumni associations that "look out for their own." Recommendations and referrals are coin of the realm when looking for a job ... getting a promotion ... going out after sales. 3. Competitive colleges graduate the cream of the crop -- from the service academies to the instantly recognizable regional/national giants, like Rice. Prospective employers will scan your c.v. (resume) with heightened interest when they see the name of your alma mater, and, of course, many of them, will be the product of similar schools. You should also consider Columbia and USC, if your finances allow it. I would also put Stanford, Northwestern and Georgetown on your A list. By no means spend time at a community college...not with your sterlilng background. Go for the gold, now and for the rest of your life!
