I am planning to attend grad school for physical therapy in Fall,2010. My volunteer work begins this week. The business casual dress code where I am volunteering leads me to wonder whether there is a dress code in grad school.

I need to get three letters of recommendation from my professors to get into medical grad school. The only problem is I only have two semesters left in my undergrad and tend to be pretty independent in class, so I don’t stand out and usually don’t get acquainted with the teachers? Any ideas or suggestions to get these letters of recommendation?

I feel like I’ve trapped myself in a situation I can’t get out of.
I just graduated undergrad in May, and I just started grad school full time this semester. I’m in a grad program for mathematics, and I’m a teaching assistant.
These classes are WAY over my head - I’m failing my classes, and I know there’s no way I can pass them by the semester’s end.
I can’t just drop out. I’m a TA, and so I signed a working contract with the school (I’m actually loving the teaching part). I’m legally required to stay here, so I can’t drop out.
What happens if I apply for a job in the future? I know I have to provide a transcript for my undergrad (that’s not a problem for me, I got good grades in undergrad). Do I have to tell a future employer I did a semester of grad school (and failed every class)? Or can you avoid mentioning it, without anyone ever finding out? Can’t they find out by searching your social security number? Is there ANY chance ANY somewhat decent employer would hire me?

I just started grad school and we are required to take 15 credits. I am also doing an internship (which I am a first year student and am not trained for- also required). I feel completely overwhelmed right now. Anyone have advice about grad school?
Is it just overwhelming at first? How does it compare to undergrad? How does grading compare?
