In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Select additional history or English courses as your electives. Take as many advanced placement (AP) courses as you can. These will help to prepare you for college-level essay writing. Join clubs that emphasize critical thinking and the use of evidence, such as Mock Trial. It’s best if you major in history at the undergraduate level, but a degree in English, Legal Studies, or another humanities or social sciences field can be useful as well. You’ll need a B.A., at minimum, to go after a career as a professional historian. Getting into a great university and achieving high grades will make transitioning to graduate school or real-world employment easier, too.  Seize any opportunities to distinguish yourself as a history scholar, such as writing an honor’s thesis. If you choose a major outside of history, make sure to fit a number of history classes into your schedule regardless. It’s especially important to enroll in classes where you’ll be given the opportunity to conduct research with materials from other time periods. Plan your classes in a way that ensures that you’ll work with the same professors multiple times prior to your senior year. This makes it easier for them to write you convincing letters of reference. At the undergraduate level, start to pay attention to the time periods, places, or themes of history that excite you. It might help to ask yourself which historical questions peak your curiosity. Don’t worry about narrowing everything down too much in college, you’ll have plenty of time to do this if you pursue a graduate degree. For example, you may want to focus on the tiny details of people’s lives. Or, perhaps you’ll want to study life in a certain decade, like the 1950s. Decide if you want to attend a master’s only or doctoral (PhD granting) program. Research possible schools by talking with your undergraduate professors and reaching out to active historians and potential mentors via email. Prepare and send off your application package with all of the required materials, including your GRE scores, the application fee, a letter of introduction, a writing sample, and any letters of reference.  You can also narrow down your school choices by looking into the educational backgrounds of your favorite historians. It’s possible that one of your undergraduate professors might offer to contact another professor for you to inquire about a graduate program. If they offer to do this, be appreciative and accept their help. You’ll receive acceptance and financial offer letters from graduate schools in the mid-spring. Make sure to carefully read over any fine print involving fellowships or assistantships.
Summary: Develop your reading and writing skills in high school. Get your college degree in history or a related subject. Focus on an area of historical interest. Apply to graduate school.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Wait for the dial tone. Some phone providers require you to sign up for call forwarding/diversion at an additional cost. This method will only work if your service supports call forwarding. After a brief pause (or three quick dial tones), you’ll hear the steady dial tone once more. The code you’ll dial depends on how you want to forward calls:   Forward all incoming calls:  *72  Forwarding when you don’t answer:  *92  Forward when busy/on the other line:  *90 This is the phone number that your incoming calls will be forwarded to. Confirmation may occur in one of two ways:  If you hear a confirmation message, you’re all set. If you hear ringing through the receiver, this means your provider will confirm the forwarding once another party answers the call. If you decide not to forward calls, dial one of the following codes:   Stop forwarding all calls: *73 Stop forwarding on no answer: *93 Stop forwarding when busy: *91
Summary: Pick up your landline phone. Dial the call diversion code. Dial the forwarding phone number. Wait for confirmation. Disable call forwarding when desired.
