Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use prep materials from PSI to study for the exam. Register for the test with PSI. Pass the test with a score of at least 70%.

Answer: The Michigan's real estate licensing exam is administered by PSI. PSI offers a number of study materials for their exams on their website. Start with the Candidate Information Bulletin and use the examination content outline to cover the basics of the test. You can also purchase additional prep materials at http://www.psionlinestore.com/. To make the most of your study time, find a quiet place free of noise or distractions. Set aside an hour or two a day for several weeks prior to the exam to make sure you are ready when test day comes. If your salesperson application is approved, you will receive an email from the State of Michigan which includes instructions on how to register for your licensing exam. The email will include a unique 6-digit number known as your Michigan Real Estate (or MIRE) number, which is required to register for the test. You must pay a $76 fee at the time that you register. You will also schedule your exam at this time. The license examination is a closed-book, computer based test that covers 110 questions and lasts 180 minutes. You will be allowed 15 minutes to complete a tutorial to ensure you understand the format of the test. This time will not count against the time allowed for the test. You must receive a score of 70% to pass. The test covers subjects you should have studied in your prelicensure courses, such as property ownership, land use controls and regulations, market analysis, and financing. If you paid attention in school and use your study time wisely, you should be familiar with the information covered on the test. If you pass the exam, you can receive an on-site license at the examination site, meaning you can practice real estate immediately if you already have a broker!

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Import or go to the Autocad drawing that is not to scale. Identify one line segment in the drawing that you know the length of. Measure the length of the line segment that you chose in Step 2. Divide the length the line should be by the length the line is in the drawing. Type "scale" into the command prompt followed by the space bar. Check the line that you measured in step 2 to make sure the scale is now accurate.

Answer: It is okay if the Autocad drawing is not to scale, as long as you know at least one length. Type in "UN" followed by the space bar to change the units. Make sure the units are architectural and the precision is 1/6". This can be a wall length or the length of a building. Larger lengths make more accurate scaling in Autocad. You do not want to scale the whole drawing by the width of a door or the length of a piece of furniture, for example. Click on the line, type "properties" followed by the space bar in the command prompt. Scroll down the pop up window until you see the length of the line. Write this number down. You can also draw a new line in the drawing to scale from, if the line doesn't exist in the drawing, like the length of a building, for example. (length full scale) / (length measured in drawing). You should get a decimal number. Write this number down. Then select the entire AutoCad drawing and press the space bar. Then click any part of the drawing. You will see as you move your mouse, AutoCad is attempting to manually scale the drawing. Do not click a second time. Instead type in the command prompt the decimal number you got from Step 5. Then press the space bar. The drawing should be scaled accurately. If it is close, but slightly off, you may have not included enough decimal places in your scale calculation. Simply repeat steps 3-6 for the new scaled drawing to get the scale even more precise. After a second run of the scale, the AutoCad drawing should be accurately scaled.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Press the edges with your finger. Lift the cookie up to check the bottom. Insert a toothpick into bar cookies.

Answer: Open up the oven, pull out the rack a bit, and push the sides of the cookie very lightly with a spatula or your finger. If the edge stays firm and doesn't fall inwards, then your cookies are done. If you leave a noticeable indention, then your cookies likely need a few minutes more in the oven. This is an especially good method to use with dark cookies, such as chocolate or gingerbread, where coloring isn't the best indication of doneness. If you choose to use your finger to test, make sure to be very careful or you could get burned by the baking sheet. If you are working with a fragile cookie, like shortbread, test them by pressing lightly into the center instead of the edges. This will lower the likelihood of them breaking up upon contact. Pull open your oven and slide your metal spatula halfway under a single cookie. Lift up just a bit and check the coloring of the cookie's underside. The cookie should appear light brown or golden in coloring and firm in texture. Be very careful when lifting or you could split the cookie in half. This method works well for sandies, spritz, and other pale colored cookies. It's sometimes hard to test the doneness of bar cookies because they are so dense and often dark in coloring. Get a wooden toothpick or skewer and push it into the bar. Keep going until you reach the halfway point of the cookie. Withdraw the toothpick. If there are lots of crumbs or batter on the wood, then the cookies are not quite done. It's important to use wood skewers or toothpicks. Metal ones do not work as well as the crumbs will simply slide off.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Connect your iOS device to your computer. Open your iOS device on your computer. Double-click the "DCIM" folder. Find the image that you want to check. Open the details for the image file. Review the photo's size.

Answer:
Use the USB cable that came with the device. The process varies a little depending on whether you're using Windows or Mac: Windows - Double-click "My Computer", then double-click the iOS device in the "Devices and Drives" section. Mac - Double-click the iOS device icon that appears on your desktop. Once you've found the image, you can open a new window displaying information about it. Windows - Right-click on the image, then click Properties. Mac - Select the image, hold down Command, and tap I. You should be able to see the easy-to-read size (e.g. 1.67 MB) as well as the actual exact size (e.g. 1,671,780 bytes). The photo's size should be next to a heading that says "Size" or "File Size."
