Article: Do your research on potential schools so you can compare them. Yearly, there is a list of rankings on the top engineering schools. Schools like MIT, University of California Berkeley, and Stanford are consistently ranked at the top of the list. Read through their websites and become familiar with what courses they offer as well as their curriculum. Most schools provide a faculty page where you can learn about faculty members. If you want to know more about a school or ask questions about the curriculum, you may find contact information like an e-mail address or phone number to the department. Talk to mentors or potential professors in order to stand out as a serious candidate and learn more about the program. Once you have learned more about a particular program, set up a tour on campus. You will learn more about the geography of campus as well as other campus amenities. Tours will also help you get a feel of the campus life, to see if you would be a good fit as a student there. Talk to the college about how they will help you obtain a job after college. Some schools require internships as part of their curriculum. Often, schools will have a career service department in which students can talk about potential careers or even mock interview. Doing this will help you get a foot in the door for a potential career and make you stand out as a determined candidate. You will need letters of recommendation in order to apply to school. You want to ask professional references - like teachers, bosses, club leaders - to write these letters. You want someone to explain your skills and be a strong advocate to your studies.

Problem: Article: One way to soften leather is to wear it. Repeatedly wearing leather shoes will help them become more pliable. However, if you walk around in new leather shoes all day, they might start to hurt. You can minimize that chance by wearing them for just half a day, then swapping them for some more comfortable shoes. If your feet start to hurt while wearing the shoes, take them off and swap them for another pair, even if you haven't worn them the whole half-day. And then wear them for another half day two days after that. Continue wearing the new shoes every other day in half-day increments. When they feel softer, try wearing them for a full day. Continue to wear them as regularly as you wish thereafter. Feet are sweaty. If you wear the shoes two days in a row when they're new, they will not have time to adequately dry out, especially when they are new and still tight around your feet. Breaking in a new shoe can take time. Leather often requires a long break-in period in order to become as soft as you may want it to be. Thinner leathers like calfskin will likely soften more easily, but if your shoes have a lot of stitches and needlework, they will take longer to break in. You can speed up the softening process by wearing a pair (or two) of socks when walking about.
Summary: Walk around in your shoes for half a day. Wear the shoes again for just half a day two days later. Be patient.
