A. there are no required courses to get into law school, unlike med school or some other professional degree programs. my suggestion is take what courses interest you the most as you are prone to do better in those types of subjects. in the end, your senior year of your undergraduate work, when you start applying to law schools... admission decisions will be based primarily off of two numbers: your undergrad GPA and your LSAT score (law school admission test). above a 170 on your lsat and above 3.50 and you will have an awesome shot at most schools. 150 lsat and 3.0 gpa and your chance are drastically reduced, but it is still possible to find a decent school. below 150 and below 3.0 and your chances of going to law school are very limited.… [cont.]

In order to modernize should martial arts start including firearms training?
Q. It seems like the usefulness of martial arts has been limited with the invention of gun powder. Should martial arts start incorporating firearms training to keep up with the times? Why or why not?

What type of martial arts make good cross-training for Hockey?
Q. My 8 year old son is starting his hockey season again and loves every second out on the ice, but I've noticed he gets easily discouraged and talks a lot about not being as "quick" as the other boys. Last season I talked to his coach and he suggested that I enroll him in gymnastics or martial arts to help with agility and strength. Since there are no gymnastics classes near by, what type of martial arts should I be looking into?
Asked by Stella - Thu Sep 29 18:53:58 2011 - Hockey - 1 Answers - Comments
A. I'm not sure I completely get what you're saying. What do you mean by ''quick''? Quick decisions, vision, puck-handling, skating, reflexes??? It would help to specify so we can better help you. Whatever the aspect is, they have to be trained in order to improve. He will make fastest decisions as his confidence grows and his abilities and ice vision develop. He's probably too young now to judge and analyze all the situations so give him some time :) The vision, by being alert and disposed (slept enough, not sick, etc), it will be easier for him to see what's around him. Tell him to keep his head up and encourage him to widen his sight as much as possible. With time, he'll be able to judge who's available, what he should do and more. Puck-han [cont.]

Is a liberal arts education at a private college really worth the price? What do employers look for?
Q. Would a liberal arts education at a public college be any less grand?
Asked by - Sun Oct 11 20:12:14 2009 - Higher Education (University +) - 5 Answers - Comments
A. If I was hiring and you gave me your resume listing a liberal arts education I would consider it a mark against you! I would consider a high school graduate who worked at a fast food place as being the better employee. Liberal arts degree means to me: You have led a sheltered and pampered life, took the easy way out and spent more time partying that learning. You abused limited educational resources while more motivated, intelligent and hard working poor people were denied the opportunity you waisted.

A. Kung Fu looks fun because it looks flashy and choreographed around camera angles. Realistically, real martial arts is not pretty, but rather bland looking. You don't have time to do a three minute fight scene like in the movies when it might really all end in 20 seconds. Some martial arts have evolved into a sport fighting for points ranking, ribbons, and trophies and with many rules you can't do this or that and the person who best plays by these rules is the champion. If you want to learn martial arts you will need to have physical contact - hit and be hit. Not bone breaking contact, but light contact - control. With that said, consider two options. First, consider Wing Chun because you will be able to learn self defense against bigger… [cont.]

A. as many different types as you can,starting with a stand up style.or a style that is well rounded.heres a bit of info. A good well rounded style would be freestyle Karate.You will learn stand up,ground,grappling and weapons.What a lot of people don't understand is that freestyle Karate is about practical street defence not who can kick the highest or punch a pad the hardest.It's definitely not a sport martial art like TKD or BJJ.The motto of my style is the best of everything in progression.Basically that means we don't care where the technique comes from we improve it and integrate it into our style while still maintaining tradition as do most freestyle Karate's. The hardest thing is finding a good experienced instructor.I would recommend… [cont.]

What is the policy on martial arts insurance?
Q. I have been informed that to teach martial arts/ self defence in this country you need black belt/sash or equivalent to qualify for insurance. Does 27yrs in various arts not qualify as equivalent, considering some clubs give out black belts after only 3 to 4 years? I have wandered from style to style not interested in moving up the belt system but taking what I believe works and developing my own self defence system. Any advice would be appreciated.

A. I'm not sure it would be anything we'd recognize as "martial arts" in the same sense as the empty-hand combat systems we normally associate with the term. I'm sure your average foot soldier was drilled more in marching than in hand-to-hand combat. Some of them probably practiced some folk form of wrestling or pugilism, but I doubt it was drilled as part of a military exercise. Most of the upper-class "gentlemen officers" of the time probably had some schooling in fencing/saber fighting, and maybe even in the use of great swords for the purposes of dueling.
