Answer:
Ask the admissions office at your local city college.

Question : Shi'aas, what are the name of your Hadith book references?
And how many are there in general?
Answer:
Alkafi is the MOST reliable Shia Book, as the reliable Shia Scholars said and declared . Its author is Thiqat al-Islam Muhamad Ibn Yaqoob AlKileeni ( a VERY reliable Shia Scholar, died in 328 H ) . Alkafi is a collection of Hadiths attributed to the prophet Muhamad p.b.u.h and The Infallible Imams -according to Shia- and like AhlSunnah, who give much importance to their Hadith book ( Saheeh AlBukhari ), Shia give the same or maybe even more importance to their Book ( Alkafi ) . Unlike AhlSunnah who call AlBukhari's Book as ( Saheeh AlBukhari ), Shia do not call Alkafi as ( Saheeh AlKafi ), nevertheless, Shia treat AlKafi as it is ( Saheeh ) and their most reliable scholars declare it as a ( Saheeh ) .* Here are some of the Shia most reliable Scholars' sayings about AlKafi :[1] AlHur Al'amily said " The authors of the Four Books of shia ( Alkafi , AlIstibsaar , AlTahzeeb , Mun La YahDuruHu Alfaqeeh ) have testified that the Hadiths of their books are accurate (saheeh) , firm and well conducted from the roots that all shia agreed on , and if you consider those scholars ( the authors of the four books ) are reliable then you must accept their sayings and their narrations . " [ Alwasa'el , volume 20 , page 104 ][2] Sharaf'Deen AbdulHussain Mosawy said : " Alkafi , AlIsTibSaar , AlTahzeeb and Mun La YahduRuHu Alfaqeeh are *MutawaTirah* and agreed on the acuraty of its contents ( the Hadiths ) , and Alkafi is the oldest , greatest , best and the most accurate one of them " . [ The book of AlMuraja'aat , Muraj'ah number 110 ] ..... MutawaTirah = accurate 100% because it was narrated by many narrators .[3] Muhammad Sadiq AlSaDr said : " Although The Shia are on the unanimity of that The four books ( Alkafi , AlIsTibSaar , AlTahzeeb and Mun La YahduRuHu Alfaqeeh ) are accepted and *all* the narrations in them are accurate ( Saheeh ), But they did not call them by the name ( Sihaah ) like AhlSunnah did ." . [ The Book of shia "Kitab alshia" page 127 ][4] AlTabRassy said : " Alkafi among the four shia books ( AlTahzeeb , Alkafi , AlIsTibSar , mun la YahDuruhu Alfaqeeh ) is like the sun among the stars , and who looked fairly would not need to notice the position of the men in the chain of hadiths in this Book , and if you looked fairly you would feel satisfied and sure that the hadiths are firm and accurate . " [ MusTaDrak AlWasa'el , volume 3 , page 532 ][5] AlKhomeini said : " Do you think it is enough for our religious life to have its laws summed up in AlKafi and then placed upon a shelf?" [ Al-Hukumah Al-Islamiyyah page 72 ]Now, I think each and everyone of us is interested to know what this Book ( Alkafi ) contains, the book that made all those Shia Scholars praise it and recommend it, actually even blamed their followers for not applying more effort of studying and research as AlKhomeini said in his book ( Al-Hukumah Al-Islamiyyah page 72 ) !! .* EXAMPLES of the CONTENTS of AlKafi :[1] Chapter: The Imams have knowledge of All that was given to the angels and the prophets. ( AlKafi vol.1 p.255 )[2] Chapter: The Imams know when they will die, and they only die by their choice. ( AlKafi vol.1 p.258 )[3] Chapter: The Imams have knowledge of the past and future; and nothing is hidden from them. ( AlKafi vol.1 p.260 )COMMENT: No doubt that these words are clear Kufr (Disbelief) and Shirk (Polytheism), because the knowledge of the unseen is only for Allah alone .. These words with no doubt countradict what Allah said in Surah Luqmaan "Verily, Allah With Him (Alone) is the knowledge of the Hour, He sends down the rain, and knows that which is in the wombs. No person knows what he will earn tommorow, and no person knows in what land he will die. Verily, Allah is All-Knower, All-Aware (of things)" [Quran 31:34][4] "Obedience to `Ali is true humility and disobedience to him is disbelief in Allah" ( AlKafi vol.10 p.54 )[5] "Whoever sets up another Imam besides `Ali and delays `Ali's caliphate is a polytheist" ( AlKafi vol.10 p.55 )COMMENT: These words declare all AhlSunnah as kufaar (Disbelievers) and Mushrikeen (Polytheists), because we -AhlSunnah- do not believe in the Shia Imamate of `Ali ( which is believing that `Ali is Infallible,..etc ) also We -AhlSunnah- believe that Abubakr (r) is the first caliphate, Omar (r) the second and Othman (r) the third, thus, We delay `Ali's caliphate to be the 4th after Abubakr,Omar and Othman, thus, Shia declare in their most reliable book that AhlSunnah are Kufaar and Mushrikeen !!![6] The false verse "And We made `Ali your in-law" has been added to Surah Al-InShirah . ( AlKafi p.289 )[7] Alkileeni reported that Jabir asked AbuJa`far p.b.u.h : "Why `Ali ibn Aby Talib was named Amir-ul-Mumineen?" AbuJa`far replied : "Allah named him so, and He revealed in His Book " And (remember) when your Lord brought forth from the Children of Adam, from their loins, their seed and made them testify as to themselves (saying): Am I

Question : Transferring an AAS in Radiology?
I'm really quite confused. I'm majoring an AAS Degree in Radiology and am told to avoid AAS degrees, because they don't transfer, since I'll eventually be going to a University one day. Why would I want to get an AA/AS degree though? After 2 years, I still won't be making any money and still be where I was when I started, but with an AAS, I actually get to work, make connections, do something in life and not work minimum wage for another 2 years. What makes an AAS less than an AA/AS? I'm fairly certain AAS has SOME general education courses. Also, after I do get my degree, what's next? BS in Radiology? Or some specialized field?
Answer:
Some of the classes you're taking won't transfer to a university because the university needs to offer the same class, and most of them don't offer radiology tech classes. You might have to start over. If you want to be a radiologist, you need a bachelors degree in something, the premed classes, then med school, then a residency in radiology. Radiologists don't study radiology until after med school.

Question : Should I get an AA or AAS in Human Services?
I plan on going to a community college this fall. I do plan at this time to be a social worker when I am out of college, but I do have a question.Would it be more beneficial to get an Associates of Applied Science in Social Work or an Associates of Art in Social Work? Is it possible to to transfer an AAS degree to a 4 year university, even though you don't complete all the general education requirements?I am in Missouri if it helps any.
Answer:
You should go for the AA in social work as you want to complete the general ed. There should be an articulation agreement between your CC and the College. You probably want to meet with your advisor in CC and also talk with the folks in the social work dept. Your goal should be to transfer in as a Junior to the college and not have to take any other lower division courses. DA

Question : I have an AAS Degree, how much longer will it take to get a BA?
Obviously other details come into play, but I'm 23, have my AAS-Marketing degree and can transfer into two schools. One, I can get Junior status in any of the majors they offer and the other I can get Junior status in their Marketing major. On top of this, I spent a year and a half at my community college taking general education courses because I originally thought I was going to transfer anyway, but plans changed. I have 30 general education credits, I just don't know if they will all transfer/cancel stuff out.So, all that said, roughly how long do you think I can expect it to take? Two years? Perhaps less? I would plan on taking whatever class I could in the summer too. Usually I wouldn't really care about the time frame, but I'm 23 and I feel kind of worthless/like a loser since a lot of my friends are done getting their BA's and are getting started in their careers. It's either this route, or just hope for the best with my Associates.
Answer:
Two years usually - although some schools exiguous that can accelerate it a bit. Check out:http://cps.regis.edu/academic-programs.phphttp://www.bellevue.edu/ThanksBill

Question : What to major in? Marketing? Management? & certificate, or AAS?
So, I want to own my own businesses. Depending on how well my business goes during the first semester I'll make a decision to get a degree or a certificate at college. I'm starting at a community college this semester. Question - what has more general usefulness in the general business world? Marketing or management? Or should I pursue both?
Answer:
I have a degree in both specializations. It depends on what you plan to accomplish. Majority of the courses are the same, but there are some differences. Here's what they share in common in courses: accounting & finance courses.In many colleges most marketing courses are geared towards sales, research, or management.In many colleges most management courses deal with management and dealing with employees.

Question : Is Aas Paas Khuda, the Urdu song, a religious song?
Many of my colleagues are Pakistani and when at work i heard the song Aas Paas Khuda. I really loved it and when i went home, i looked up the lyrics. And they seem very spiritual. I'm wondering if its a religious (Islamic) song or just a song about general spirituality.
Answer:
like almost every song, or atleast most songs, there can be many different interpretations of the lyrics based on the individual's personality, personal spirituality, the way they were raised to interpret things like poems and songs, and many other factors. it really just depends on your state of mind about the song, the context you heard it in, and if you are, in fact, Muslim.

Question : How to I become a pediatric nurse, starting from a community college before transferring?
I'm a junior in highschool, and gaining interest toward a nursing carrer(pediatric nurse)I will attend a community college, before transferring to a university..Some people say that in order to become a pediatric nurse, you need your associates (RN).Some say you need your bachelors (4 years).Also, how will I be able to transfer to a university with a AAS (RN) if only the general courses are transferred? What are the requirements in Virginia?Thank you.
Answer:
In most states, one must have a four-year Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) in order to become a "registered nurse" (RN). Those with two-year associates (AA, AS or AAS) degree are only allowed to be things like a "Licensed Practical Nurse" (LPN), or a "License Vocational Nurse" (LVN), but *NOT* an RN. There are, however, states where an AAS would be enough to be an RN, and so there will always be people from said states who are offended by someone like me saying that only a BSN will do it.I'll say, though, that I'd sure not want to be a patient in a hospital where my RN only had an AA, AS or AAS... and I don't give one whit WHOM that offends!In most states, a pediatric nurse is just an RN... maybe with some special additional training, and maybe not. It all just depends on the state.One may obtain a two-year AA or AS (most likely an AS, but definitely *NOT* an AAS) degree from a local community college and then most likely have said AA or AS (again, preferably an AS) degree transfer, in its entirety, into a BSN program... and most likely be counted as the entire first two years thereof... thereby allowing the AA or AS holder to enter the BSN program as a junior, and then complete only the junior and senior years, and then earn the BSN degree.To understand why an AAS degree should not even be considered, read this other posting on that matter which I made just today:http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkhAK6FFO.7eEoRgpOiQejzty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=201008231 81506AA2mVtR&show=7#profile-info-dz4eJA2haaOnce one has the BSN, then one may apply to one's state board of nursing to sit for the NCLEX-RN exam, and then, if passed, apply for an RN license.However -- and this is important -- a place like this (or talking to others) is *NOT* the right approach.Nursing is a REGULATED career in every single state. One must have a license to work in that career, and each state's licensing requirements are different. Your absolutely first and only authority on all this is the the web site of the nursing board in the state in which you intend to practice......which, in this case, you've said is VIRGINIA. Fine.... here you go...http://www.dhp.state.va.us/nursing/Start there. Read everything on the site (which is applicable) and, believe me, you'll not need to know (nor would you WANT to know) anything you'd find in a place like this......with the exception, of course, of what you're reading right now.Your SOLE authority for all questions and their answers is the nursing board of the state in which you will practice. PERIOD. Take advice from no other source.Hope that helps!

Question : what are the general education credit requirments to get a AAS degree in accounting ? What class ?
i'm thinking of persuing a Degree in accounting, im' 30, haven't taken any college courses so i'm just tring to get idea what I would have to go through. any info on the type of classes i would need for the general credits would be great ? I'm all for getting a education even at my age but am nervous about talking a ton of generals. I found lists of classes for the accounting stuff but nothing on generals that would be needed. Thanks for any information.
Answer:
It may depend somewhat on where you are.I know the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) requires fifteen hours of general education courses for an AAS degree, with three hours in the social sciences, three hours in math/science, and three hours in humanities/fine arts.I would guess that the other regional accrediting agencies would have similar guidelines--and most junior/community/technical colleges are going to interpret those pretty much the same (although they may have slightly different course offerings) within each region.
