In CAMP BUCCA, Iraq the inmates huddle below the barbed wire, looking up at the strangers who have arrived at the detention facility. They're dressed in bright yellow, almost fluorescent jumpsuits. There are 2,000 of them, described by the U.S. military as hard-core al Qaeda loyalists. These inmates are kept behind a maze of chain-link fences, topped with barbed wire, and are guarded by heavily armed men in military fatigues who hold shields. We're escorted through Camp Bucca, the United States' biggest detention facility in Iraq, by Marine Gen. Douglas Stone, who runs the camp. "They're hard to break," he says of the suspected al Qaeda inmates. As Stone speaks, some inmates begin pointing up and we're told to keep moving. We wear protective glasses to cover our eyes. Inmates here throw rocks from the dusty, gravel floor at visitors, sometimes using makeshift slingshots to hurl the pebbles at 100 mph. Several guards have been blinded by the projectiles. Walk along with Nic Robertson through the facility » "This is not a place you want to hang around, so we really don't want to stand here that much longer because they will organize around us," Stone says. We press on through the facility. As we record our television piece, we're not allowed to talk to the inmates or show their faces -- doing so would be in violation of the Geneva Conventions. Inside Camp Bucca, the al Qaeda loyalists make up a minority of more than 19,000 civilian detainees. They are neither criminals nor prisoners of war. They are detained because they are deemed a security threat, many accused of taking up arms against American soldiers

To clear somethings up, I have had a 4.0 for 10 of 11 grading periods, however, I am not in all advanced classes. I do need financial need because my family is poor and I work around 30 hours a week during the school year (cook at TGI's). SO hopefully I get some help.

You're going to get some money with a 31.

I took the test 1 time before I went to college and got a 26. I think I could've got more, but I was reading too slow on the English part, so I just started guessing a whole bunch at the end.

Sounds like I was in a similar position that you are now, so I'll fill you in.

I got a 30. I hated the science section though. I got ~34 on every section but the science section, which I got like a 20 on (ouch). If it weren't for that section I would have gotten an amazing score. That's why my SAT was so much better than my ACT.

I had a 4.00 with mostly AP's my last two years in high school.

Decent mix of community service, sports, and extracurricular activities.

And I had a strong record in the employment field due to my own business.

My essay was pretty good, I suppose.

I was easily able to get into schools like the University of Richmond, the University of Puget Sound (where I go now), Southern Methodist University, and Creighton University (where I'm probably transferring to). But I was placed on the waiting list for Washington University in St. Louis (one of the most selective universities in the country).

My EFC was like 1000. So MOST of these schools were willing to give me close to a full ride. I was able to get into my state school on a full ride based on merit alone. Also, if you don't get what you want in terms of aid, have your parents CALL the financial aid office. I got an additional $7,000 worth of aid for this year by doing so.

In short, yes, you have a good score //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

PM me if you have any college questions

I got a 32 back in 2005. Only got me $2,500 a year for 4 years at Michigan Tech and I had very close to a 3.8 GPA with taking Calculus, Physics, Chem 1 and 2, AP English and a few other things. So, a 31 may not get you much in the way of scholarship money.

It's sad to say this, but we actually have smart people here....

Everyone's honest and would never lie about a test score either.
