Write an article based on this "Review the school catalog. Look at the class schedule for the first term. Read the rules about overloading first, or ask for advice, before choosing the classes you'll take. Understand how units correlate to hours per week that you will spend. Ask school staff or returning students what a reasonable course load is. Find out if any of your chosen classes are difficult to get into."
article: This should list the requirements to graduate in your chosen major, and it is important that you understand what requirements you must fulfill. It will also give a brief description of the contents of the courses, which in turn will help you gauge how difficult each course will be and whether it will interest you. Begin making a list of classes you wish to take. Try to include alternatives both for times and for course titles, since certain popular classes may be crowded at first. Do any of the additional classes you want to take clash? Is it going to be possible to work around clashes or is this going to make one or more of the classes too difficult to complete? Cross off those that really won't work out. Some of the things to bear in mind include: In some cases, your institution may not permit taking an extensive overload. If you need approval for an overload (many colleges require this), this is often an additional step from normal enrollment, so be sure to get the correct papers and approvals in advance. Do you know what penalties or flexibilities are in place for dropping, changing or failing additional courses taken? It's a very good idea to know how many weeks into the term you have to withdraw from a subject without recording a fail, in case you realize you need to lighten the load and pick up the dropped subject later on. Often one unit corresponds to one hour in class, but the proportion may be different for certain things such as lab or review sessions. Remember that the number of units you take will also determine how much homework you will have. Plan to spend an average of two hours of study outside of class each week for each hour in class - though this, too, varies from class to class. Many schools have a certain minimum number of units you must take per term to be considered a full time student. This minimum number of units may not take up all of your time, and it may not get you through your curriculum in a reasonable number of terms. On the other end of the spectrum, you don't want to overload yourself with classes, especially not before you know how many units you can reasonably handle during a given term. Here again, try to get the advice of someone who has attended your school in your department. Aim to be at least on the waiting list for classes that are difficult to get into, as soon as you have all the prerequisites.

article: Use a sharp paring knife to carefully trim any of the white fat or tendons from the red steak. Fat will make your jerky overly chewy and will cause the jerky to spoil faster. Remove as much of the fat as you can before moving onto the next step. Wrap the meat in plastic wrap first, then place it in your freezer. A partially frozen steak will be easier to cut than a non-frozen steak. Lay the meat out on a cutting board and start to cut thin strips of meat from the steak with a chef's knife. Each slice of meat should be anywhere from 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15cm) long. Continue cutting the strips until you've cut the entire steak into pieces. Cut against the grain for a more traditional chewy texture or with the grain for a more sinewy texture. Try to slice the meat so each piece is a uniform size.

article:
Use a 2 quart (2 liter) plastic bottle and fill it of the way with water. You can either use water from a local pond or stream, or from the tap. Pond or stream water is preferable because you will also get small microorganisms that may be present in the water. If you have to use tap water, make sure that you let it sit in an open container for at least 24 hours before using in your ecosystem. The chlorine present in tap water may kill any animal or plant species that you add to your ecosystem. Letting the water sit for 24 hours gives the chlorine time to dissipate from the water. Next, add 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) of tiny rocks or pebbles. You should always wash any rocks prior to adding them to your ecosystem. This will help remove any contaminants. At this stage you could also add one dead leaf. This will provide a food source for any microorganisms in the water. You can buy aquatic plants from your local pet supply store. When you add the plants to your ecosystem, make sure to separate them and add them individually. Alternatively, you could pick water plants from a local pond. You can also purchase small freshwater snails at your local pet supply store. Alternatively, you may be able to find water snails from a local pond. Make sure the snails are small enough to fit through the opening of the bottle. Once you have placed everything into your ecosystem, you should wait approximately 24 hours before sealing it closed. This will allow your ecosystem to settle. After 24 hours you can screw the cap onto the top of the bottle. Situate your aquatic ecosystem in a sunny spot. The bottle should receive indirect sunlight throughout the day.
