<Unable to get into Med School?>

My son has a first year AP Calculus teacher who recently told the class that he only went into teaching because he didn't get into law school.

Guess who is teaching him Calculus?

It has expanded its role as the single most popular destination for foreign investment and exports. Even the developed economies of Europe base their economic well being on exports to the United States. The dollar has strengthened its grip on everything from the debt market to the oil market.
