It depends on the place but primarily the chef de rang works closely with the Maiter D and the somm. They are usually the ones who put the tables order into the system and mark the them for courses and wine. They may also server wine if needed.
I think Chefs are important because they make are food, we learn what is healthy and whats not form them. I thinik that if we didn't have chefs that we won't have all the great food we have today in this world!!!!!!!
The mental demands for a chef are to be able to handle stress and tight deadlines extremely well. There is always a lot of noise and confusion happening in the kitchen especially of a busy restaurant, so a chef has to be able to prepare an excellent meal despite all of that. The physical demands of a chef are that they may have to lift large bags/boxes of ingredients, kitchen utensils, etc.
I work with a few executive chefs that have never been to culinary school,but got their positions based on years of great experience.A degree would certainly help you get the job faster,but its really the experience that counts.
No. A head chef is usually the chef in charge of a single operation and is a "hands on" chef. An executive chef is a chef over multiple operations and works more in an office style capacity leading other head chefs or chef de cuisine. You will usually not find an executive chef on the line during the Saturday night rush...you better find the head chef on there though. Some operations will title a head chef as an "executive chef", but this is just dressing up the title.
One is the same as the other just different ways of saying it. Executive chef is a term used in hotels with large kitchens that have many different chefs employed. Different answer I have answered this on an alternate question. See http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_a_master_chef
A master chef is the person who is in charge of the other chefs and who oversees the general work flow. This position is not to be confused with that of the executive chef.
ANSWER
I would consider a master chef to be near the top of their game. They would probably be either head chef or executive chef or might not even be cheffing as a job. But they would be one of the best in their speciality, either in their country or in the world.
Executive chef spends most of the time, either doing management side of things, writing menu's or food ordering. They spend a little time in the kitchen. Their orders come first.
Head Chef will be either the main chef if there is no executive chef or the main chef in the kitchen. if the executive chef is not there, the head chef will be in charge. Does spend some time out of kitchen too.
Sous chef means second in charge. When the head chef isn't there and there isn't a executive chef, the sous chef is in charge.
The master chef is in charge of all chefs...
It depends on the circumstance. If the sous-chef outranks you, it is not necessarily wrong to address them as "Chef". Usually the title is reserved for the Executive Chef or Head Chef, and addressing one of their subordinates as "Chef" in their presence could be perceived as an insult. It depends on the kitchen dynamic (formal/informal), and the ego of the chefs you work with!
If the Sous Chef is taking over due to the Executive Chef being absent then calling him/her "Chef" is acceptable.
* I would always address my Sous Chef as chef. There can be more than one person called Chef in a kitchen. Chefs due call each other Chef in a working situation. But I also agree with the above that it greatly depends on the kitchen dynamic. And the egos!

There are no standard tuition and fee rates for colleges and universities. Each institution will have rates particular to itself. There are a number of variables to consider to include whether the institution is public or private, the geographical location, the specific program of study (some of which have greater course and/or clinical fees), and whether the school is a two year or four year institution. Once you collect the names of some colleges and universities you have an interest in, you can then research the cost specific to those institutions.
About 36,000 for a head chef. but It depends on what chef works with.
You need to be flexible and patient. You need to be prepared to work as part of a team, eg you can't expect the waitresses to help you out at busy times if you are not prepared to muck in and help them with the dishes or preparing puddings.
You need to be prepared to work hard, be good at organizing for ordering stock. You can't be too arrogant, no-one is to good to clean and a good chef won't work in dirty kitchen, so if you don't have a kitchen porter, you have to do it yourself!
you have to step in sometimes and take out food, be prepared to deal with anything that is thrown at you, improvise.
You also need to have good memory to remember what you are doing.
you will also have put up with a few big mess's in the kichen but dont panic
