I searched but didn't find any high school near San Jose that offers Korean. It might be possible, however, to take the class off campus and use that for your language credits.

How about you just get to school on time? Just a thought.

Your concept of "rights" is a bit shaky. Students gave the "right of entry" when they are on time. You abused the privilege. In college, you are not required to attend classes...but your professor is allowed to not allow you to make up work. You may also have noticed that your locker is legally subject to search...which tells you a bit more about "student rights".

You have the right to attend class; you have the responsibility to get there on time. Failure to attend to your responsibility forfeits your right.

Could I still get into a good graduate school if I attend San Jose State for my undergrad?
Could I still get into a good graduate school if I attend San Jose State for my undergrad?
I've gotten accepted to San Jose State University, Cal Poly SLO, and University of California, Davis, Santa Barbara, and Irvine for my undergraduate education under mechanical engineering. Now I've narrowed it down to San Jose State(close to home) and UC Santa Barbara(love the location). But I'm just wondering if I still have a shot at a good graduate school for my masters in mechanical engineering if I attend San Jose State University. Like, could I still get into mechanical engineering graduate schools at UCLA, UCB, or Stanford if I attend San Jose State University?

The simple answer to your question is yes. But I think your not focusing on the real question. First of all engineering programs are geared to teach certain things. The CSU has a great reputation in engineering, especially Cal Poly Pomona and SLO. But they are geared toward students that want to get right into the work force. The UC's are geared toward training students to go on to graduate school, especially for Ph.D.s. They tend to teach theoretical engineering. Whether you go to CSU or UC you need to have a solid gpa, good GRE scores, take proper electives and try to pass your EIT exam. In any case all CSU's are recognized as fully accredited and highly regarded. If I had my choice I would to to SLO and then on to grad school at UC SB.
2
SJSU is so well known in California for engineering that straight A grades there will probably give you at least as good a shot as a mixture of A and B grades at UCSB. On the other hand, unless you are going to live at home for SJSU, you will get the best education for the least money at CPSLO which is the best CSU and is 6th highest ranked nationally on the US News list among engineering school which do not have doctoral programs. SJSU ranks 19th and this is a significant difference in comparison with CPSLO. UCSB ranks 34th for undergraduate progrms among universities which do award doctorates as well as bachelor's degrees.
3
I think it has more to do with your grades. If you can graduate with a good GPA from SJSU, then you have just increased your chances of getting into a masters program. GRE might play a part in it too. SJSU is pretty good for mechanical engineering, but so is Cal Poly SLO and Pomona. US News ranked SJSU in the top 30 or something (overall) but both Cal Poly were in the top 20 or so. SLO was in like the top 10.

Question about Traffic School and Speeding Ticket in California.?
Question about Traffic School and Speeding Ticket in California.?
So I just received a traffic ticket for speeding and am trying to figure out if I am eligible for traffic school. I was driving from Orange County (where I live) to San Jose for work and got caught speeding at 88 MPH in a 70 MPH zone. I have not attended traffic school for more than 4 years, but is my violation eligible for California traffic school? Or was I going too fast? And I received the ticket in San Jose, do I need to attend traffic school in San Jose or can I attend traffic school in California?

The only speed I'm aware of that isn't eligible for traffic school is over 100 MPH. And you're allowed to take traffic school to remove points every 18 months, so you're fine. You can take any court-approved school; there are some that you can do online, i.e. while you're in Orange County, such as this one: http://www.drivinguniversity.com/california-approved-online-traffic-school/san-jose.htm However, I'd double-check their claim that it's court-approved.

It is a good sports school, the Spartans. It is good for business and engineering. I majored in Urban Planning in grad school but dropped out. It is located in the heart of San Jose near downtown so accessible. The demigraphics has a high percentage of Vietnamese. It used to be known for teaching program but I don't know about that now. FYI, the Smothers Bros. went there for a while and got their start in a small club across the street. I am older so I could not comment on how people feel now.

Its a good school, most of my friends went there, they have no complaints.

Where You Live What Percentage Of The Hispanic Population Would You Say Can Pass For White?
Where You Live What Percentage Of The Hispanic Population Would You Say Can Pass For White?
I went to a predominantly Hispanic high school in San Jose, California and I would say no more than 10%-15% of the Hispanics in my school could pass for White if in White you also include people who look like they could come from the Mediterranean.

Only if they loose the accent and dye their hair light brown or ash blonde.
2
hispanics that could pass for white where i live 5-10% mediterraneans that pass for white 90-95% bi-multiracial ppl that pass for white 5-10%
3
like 5 %
4
About 30% of "Hispanics" are INDISTINGUISHABLE from whites...Everyone just assumes only stereotypical "George Lopez" looking types are hispanic..A hispanic could look like Laura Bush..
5
They aren't passing for white they ARE white. Just becuase American media has decided Latinos are a race doesn't mean they are. Many many Latinos are primarily or completely of European descent (usually Spanish, Portugerse, Italian, and English). They look like mediterranian peoples becuase they ARE meditteranian peoples.
6
Hispanic people who can so called 'pass for White' usually ARE White racially! Remember Hispanic is not a race, neither is Latino. There are millions of full White Hispanics, mainly descended from Spain. To answer your question it depends on the country u go 2. Where i personally live, there are not many Hispanics. I have only met two, a Venezuelan and a Mexican and neither could pass for White. In Mexico for example, 10% of the population is White racially, whereas somewhere like Argentina, that percentage shoots up to over 90%. Southern Brazil also has a lot of White Hispanics, as does Costa Rica and Uruguay. The majority of Cubans living in the US (especially those living in Florida) are White racially also. Sarah: mediterraneans ARE White.
7
1/2, most of the people where I live are either more native looking hispanics or white hispanics.
8
That 10-15% is Really low. Probably because you live in California and most hispanics in Cali are Mexican. Most Mexicans have Aztec ancestry. These are the types of hispanics that are Always portrayed in ¨hollywood´...Another thing, you stated your question completely wrong. Hispanic or Latino is NOT a race. Hispanic only means that the person is from a Spanish speaking country. There are black, white, mestizo, and mullato hispanics. I live in Miami, where there is a majority of Cuban, Colombian and Venezuelans and I would say ALOT are white. Not ´look´ white, but are white. Remember, Hispanic means that they are from a spansh speaking country, while white pertains to race. Dont let screwed up Hollywood standard of what a hispanic person is ´supposed´ to look like interfere with the reality.

Can I go to a different high school in the same district here in CALIFORNIA?
Can I go to a different high school in the same district here in CALIFORNIA?
Alright now heres the situation: I am currently a Junior in high school who lives on the west side of San Jose, CALIFORNIA (thats important for this). I currently attend Lynbrook High School in the Fremont Union High School District. My family is considering moving to the Evergreen area on the east side of San Jose. If we move there the high school I would have to go to would be Evergreen Valley High School (EVHS). Now I have read A LOT, and I mean A LOT of negative things about this school, and I have BARELY read good things about this school. I've heard the administration is terrible. Also That there security is incredibly strict. I've read that its overcrowded. I've read that the people there act hella shady. In addition to this I've read that, academically, it's not too good of a school and it barely prepares you for college despite the high API score (800 something, which I was told was high. Im just a kid I really dont know) I've just heard so many stories of kids transferring from this school because they hated it which concerns me. Theres Not a lot of love for poor EVHS. SO my question is! Can I go to Independence High School or any other high school, in the SAME DISTRICT (East Side Union High School District) as Evergreen Valley High School. Im asking this because 1) My mother says that in the state of CALIFORNIA you HAVE to go to the school assigned to your addressed and that there are NO INTER-DISTRICT TRANSFERS (which is what i assume there are called) Or that these "interdistrict tranfers" are really hard to get approved or something. 2) I really would like to enjoy my last two years of being a kid before the real world hits me in the face. Sorry that this question was really long but I'm just concerned.
