Julliard. Its like a school where music and acting thrive. Look it up on google :)

There are a ton for each but you have to choose one or the other if you are serious about it. They are both totally time consuming. *Btw, in Juilliard you can only choose one major. Either acting or music. Don't get your hopes up of attending this school I think they take 7 or 9 actors in the the program each year. This is a link to a juilliard music student (piano). You would have to play this well to get in. (Although he does have a pleasant voice, he is not a vocal major.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnRA_MFlGek

Are you a U.S. citizen? If so, there are a couple programs that support students like you. You can use Stafford loans to study overseas, for example, if the school is accredited.

Should foreign languages be made compulsory for elementary and high school students in the USA

Should foreign languages be made compulsory for elementary and high school students in the USA?
Do you think that America should follow the lead of so many of the countries in Europe and make second language learning compulsory?

I think it should be done after elementary.Just to increase our ability to understand other people.The ability to speak and understand another language can/may help to avoid misunderstandings which is the general cause of conflict.It also enriches the life of those who can speak and understand another language.
2 :
A second language helps one view life through the eyes of another culture. It expands the mind's ability to think in ways that are impossible in one's own language. It also convinces a student that other languages can be learned just as easily as the first. It is sad that there is so little interest in foreign languages and cultures in the United States. Truly educated people enjoy expanding their minds to their limits.
3 :
i don't think so. at this point there is no practical reason for the majority of americans to learn foreign languages, as english is currently "the" language to know and many many many foreigners speak it. and as a language major i'd rather not have a bunch of other people acquiring my skills and making me less marketable =) no but seriously, learning a foreign language is a fine thing, but it should not be as high on the priority list as other subjects, such as math, science, economics, history, or simply the ability to communicate well in english. too many students, and adults for that matter, lack a basic understanding of these subjects for us to be worrying about foreign languages. besides, these subjects will always be useful, while changing world conditions mean that a good language to learn now may not be so useful in ten years. how do you handle choosing the languages to teach if you make it compulsory?
4 :
Of course. We seem to tend to think the world revolves around us, we don't teach our kids the metric system, which every other country uses, and don't bother to teach our kids a second language, which just about everywhere else starts teaching in primary school. I didn't even have the option to until high school. And it's proven it's easier to learn another language when you're yonger. America's losing a lot of their work ethic. Look at Japan, China, and just about everywhere else: it's not about the sports teams, it's about education. If only colleges and the like were as competive as in Japan, for example, maybe the focus would shift.

What is better? Doing MED School in USA or India

What is better? Doing MED School in USA or India?
I am high school senior. I live in USA. But I am double-mind that I should do my Med school in India or USA. See If I go India. I will go for 5 yrs then back to USA to do residency? But If I do Med school in USA I will have to go through 4 yrs undergraduate at college. So I don't know If I should do 4 yrs undergraduate at OSU then do Med school for 4yrs. Or should I go to India. I plan to become a Orthopedic Surgeon. I like these Med school in India: Patiala Med College Chardigarh Med College. I like the Ohio State University in Ohio

The US often makes foreign medical students redo parts of their education here, especially if they don't think it's equal to the education they'd get here.

USA.

USA if you want to be taken seriously as a physician and not have to spend the rest of your life defending your choice to gain an education in a developing country. If India appeals to you so much, after your MD in the USA, go there and do good work. So many souls there need access to a western trained physician.
4 :
If you go to med school in India you will only get about 1/2 credit in the USA and you will still have to do 2 years in the USA. Largely because their teaching methods are considered inferior to the US methods.
