i really like www.dictionary.com for dictionary stuff and www.thesaurus.com for thesaurus stuff.

my creative writing class freshman year made me write poetry, so i found www.rhymezone.com to be helpful.

Having a laptop in class which requires intense note-taking (History, Gov ect)

Since I miss class a lot of the time, I usually go the first 2 weeks, and make atleast 1/2 good friends in each class. That way I know what is going on in class, have access to notes, homework help ect. ect. I always make try to make an effort to hang out w/ that person (ie always invite them to a party) to make sure that they don't feel like I am completly using them (even though I am). This task is easier if the person is a girl.

Pickaprof was entirely useless for me in terms of the teachers. RMP however was extremely useful for me.

That said, I don't like my upcoming teachers this year becuase of lack of options [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Fake IDs

I've never heard of RMP or PAP, very cool idea. I took a look and it appears I have a good OChem prof, thank god. On the other hand my Calc II prof doesn't look so good, which sucks because math is not my strong point.
