Q: Electives are a great chance to learn more about a particular interest or hobby of yours. Have you always wanted to know more about ancient history? Do you like to write poetry in your spare time? Choose something you're passionate about, and you'll not only have a good time, but you'll be motivated to work hard doing something you enjoy. Colleges consider your choice of electives when evaluating your transcript. Choose electives that allow you to learn about something you may want to study in college or pursue a career in. You'll be better prepared, and colleges will see that you've shown an interest in the subject. This is a good time to branch out and discover new things. Even if you don't know the difference between a Picasso and a Monet, try an art history class. You might find that you enjoy something you never thought you'd be interested in. While it's important to be adventurous, choose courses you think you can still get decent grades in. For instance, if you know that you're normally terrible at math, don't sign up for a math class that's not part of your requirements or if you do, make sure it's an easy one. If you are tackling several challenging requirements this semester, it may be a good idea to fill the rest of your schedule with classes that you expect will be fairly easy. On the other hand, if you mostly have easy requirements, consider trying something that will challenge you. It's important not to overschedule yourself, even if none of the classes you're taking are overly challenging. It can be tempting to cram as many credits into one semester as possible, but even if you have excellent time-management skills, your grades (and sanity) will suffer if you stretch yourself too thin. Don't forget to take into account your extracurricular activities and anything else that might be going on in your life. Try to come up with a realistic idea of how much time you'll have. Consider dropping any activities or hobbies that you're not truly interested in anymore if it will give you time for the coursework you want. If this is your first year at your high school, you can ask older siblings or any classmates you know if they have any favorite teachers. If it's not your first year, look for interesting classes taught by teachers you like and have a good relationship with. You'll learn better with someone you engage well with. Many colleges look for comments or recommendations from teachers about a student's engagement when considering an application. Building good relationships with teachers can be a great way to improve your chances of positive recommendations.
A: Choose something you're interested in. Choose some subjects that are totally new to you. Make sure your schedule is a balance of easy and difficult. Choose teachers you have a good relationship with.

Q: If your teeth are giving you issues, you can use numbing gels on your gums. These gels, which contain benzocaine, should be applied directly to your gums to help numb your toothache. Don't swallow the gel if possible, but spit the excess out instead. 10% lidocaine spray is another option, but be careful not to spay it down your throat when you apply. Make sure you follow the instructions on the tube to know how much to apply and how often. When you tooth aches, you can take over-the-counter pain medication to help. These medications include aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil), acetaminophen (Tylenol), and naproxen (Aleve). Make sure to follow the instructions for dosage on the label. If you are in a lot of pain, be careful not to overuse either the gels or pain medications. Using too much gel with benzocaine can cause a rare but serious issue called methemoglobinemia, which is a deadly illness in which the oxygen levels your blood can carry are decreased. Too many pain medications can also cause other problems, such as stomach issues and ulcers. Never use benzocaine on anyone under two years of age.
A: Use numbing gels. Try over-the-counter pain medication. Avoid overusing medications.
