Summarize the following:
There are elements of the application that all schools will require, but there are also parts that might be specific to each college or university. Get your materials together early. This test is a requirement for the vast majority of schools. Take it early so that you can retake it if your score is low. Check on the website of the colleges to which you are applying to see the range of scores and if yours fits into it. Most schools require it, and to make it good typically requires multiple drafts. Have your guidance or college counselor read it and offer suggestions. Like test scores, most schools will post the GPAs of admitted students. If yours is significantly lower, you might want to look elsewhere to apply -- it will probably be very unlikely that you are able to gain admission. The FAFSA is for government grants and loans, and some schools have additional paperwork to determine your eligibility. Most students will apply for some kind of financial aid. Be sure to fill out all of the documents in plenty of time and ask for help from parents or your guidance or college counselor for help. In some states, it is difficult to get a teaching job without a Masters of Arts in Teaching (MAT) degree. Talk to teachers in your district about their own background to determine whether you will be able to get a job with a college degree or if you will need to plan for more school.

summary: Familiarize yourself with the requirements for admission of the different colleges and universities. Take the SAT or ACT exam in your junior year. Work early and hard on your personal essay. Determine whether your grades are strong enough to be admitted to your top choice school. Complete the FAFSA and other financial aid documents. Talk to teachers to see if you will need a graduate degree.

If you've ever had to climb up several flights of stairs, you know that walking stairs is a serious workout. It helps get your heart pumping and breathing at a faster pace. This is why it's great for cardio. If you can, try to find a long flight of stairs. This way you can walk up the stairs continuously for several minutes as opposed to only walking up one flight and having to come back down again. Places like sports stadiums, apartment buildings or business buildings may have multiple flights of stairs you can use. Start with five to 10 minutes or as long as you can. Take a rest period and either do some walking or strength training before trying another five to 10 minutes. Take the stairs by two to increase the intensity and difficulty of this exercise. You can do this while walking or jogging. If you're in good shape, you can do a more demanding and difficult cardio exercise on the stairs sprints. Again, this is a great form of cardio and really gets your heart racing. To do stair sprints, run up the stairs as fast as you can for as long as you can. This may only be for a few short minutes. To help you keep your pace, pump your arms back and forth. This helps keep you going and also works your body harder. Avoid taking the stairs two at a time while doing stair sprints unless you feel really comfortable and safe doing so. Also, avoid this exercise if you have knee problems. If running up and down the stairs isn't your thing, or if you have just a short stretch or flight of stairs, try doing stair hops or jumps. These are plyometric exercises that will also get your heart pumping as a great form of cardio. For this exercise, you can either use both legs or one leg. Using one leg is much more difficult than using both legs. Start by standing facing the stairs on the floor or bottom step. Bend your knees slightly and push yourself off the ground and land on the next step up. Continue this all the way up the flight of stairs. To do one leg jumps, start in the same position; however, focus on pushing off with one leg only and landing on that one leg. Continue as far as you can. Make sure the stairs are deep and not shallow, meaning your entire foot should fit on the step. You want your whole foot to be able to land flat on the stairs and not hang off the edge. Many of the stair exercises, especially cardio exercises, you might not be able to do for 30 or 45 minutes all at one time; however, if you combine a few different cardio exercises, you can make a full workout. Most people like to do cardio for at least 20 minutes. If you want to lengthen your cardio exercises using the stairs, come up with your own interval training program to help keep you moving for longer. Regardless of what exercises you include, start with a five minute warm up. This could be slow walking up and the down the stairs. Then, alternate between a few different exercises. Maybe start with five minutes of jogging up the stairs, one minute of sprints, five minutes of jogging and then resting for two minutes. Also add in stair jumps and hops in between to really get your heart racing. Then restart with walking or stair jogging again for another few minutes.

summary: Walk or jog stairs. Try stair sprints. Do stair hops and jumps. Make your own stair interval training.

Some coffee beans undergo processing with steam or solvents to remove some of their acidity. Other coffee beans are naturally low in acid because of the area of the world that they grow in. Start with a coffee that's designed to be low-acid if you're concerned about acidity. Coffees that are processed to remove the acidity are often marketed as "mild" or "stomach-friendly." Many coffees grown in Hawaii, Sumatra, Brazil, India, and the Caribbean are naturally lower in acid. Dark roast coffees, such as Italian and French roast, are usually lower in acid than light or medium roast varieties. That's because coffee undergoes chemical changes as it roasts, so the longer that it does, the more acid that is removed. Choose a dark roast coffee and make it using any method that you prefer. Dark roast coffee also causes less acid to be secreted by the stomach than light or medium roasts. If you're not used to drinking dark roast, use a smaller amount than you would of your usual light or medium roast until you're accustomed to the taste. If coffee beans are ground too finely, too much of the acid may be extracted during the brewing process. To reduce the acid in your coffee, opt for a coarser grind, which isn't likely to be over-extracted when you're brewing your coffee. You may want to try a medium ground coffee to see how it affects your stomach. However, avoid fine and extra fine ground coffees.
summary: Select coffee that's advertised as low-acid. Opt for a dark roast coffee. Use coarsely ground coffee.
