By Jake J. Nho
Jesse Jackson, the sometimes preacher and sometimes U.S. presidential contender, said at an Atlanta convention in 1988, “It ain’t over till it’s over. Even then, it ain’t over.” I really like how that sounds.
In fact, it sounds so good that I have decided to make it one of my life mottos, that is to say never give up because there is always hope, a silver lining at the end of the rainbow.
That is a funny thing because I constantly tell people, staff and family, we must ...

By Bill Maxwell

I am always encouraged when academics finally experience epiphanies about matters that always have been the stuff of common sense.
By common sense, I mean apprehending the obvious, paying attention to ordinary events that follow the laws of logic and probability independent of our attempts to impose our conclusions on them.
In this instance, college admissions officers in great numbers are acknowledging that a personality trait called "grit" should be a part of any ...

Familiarize yourself with the TOEFL format

Most countries now offer the Internet based TOEFL (iBT). A few offer only the paper-based test (PBT). Make sure you find out which test you will be taking before you start studying for the TOEFL. You cannot choose to take the paper based test if your country offers the iBT. One reason people experience exam stress is because they don't know what to expect before a test. Prevent stress on exam day by studying the format of the test in detail. ETS has ...

This comes after three mainlanders last week got 10 months in jail each for using doctored passports to sit the TOEFL examination at a Lai King test center.

The lone local case of such cheating was recorded in 2006, the authority said, voicing confidence in its deterrent measures.
