So I'm in my first year as Electrical Engineering major. I'm actually really bad at math but I really like math. The euphoria I feel when I solved a math problem can make me happy for the whole day. I have a lot of up and down in my life from dropping out of highschool and then coming back to get my Highschool diploma. And then applying to top schools in my country to get rejected 13 times before I actually accepted. And How my talents is actually more in Chemistry then Physics. Besides all that, I hope I can enjoy Electrical Engineering because I really like playing with soldering iron and creating circuits.

Thank you for this video; I watch a bunch of your videos; they are really helpful, as I am going through this right now. I'm a non traditional student - back @ school about to finish calc 1 - I like math (actually thinking about doubling in applied math) and I'm taking physics next to prep for engineering physics; I'm currently a compsci student by the same means that you kind of mentioned -- I chose it because a lot of recommendations from others pointed me that way (I live in tech city). But I'm in this exact mode right now - still trying to figure it all out - and I've been speculating into EE and mechE. So thank you!

[@fatkitty5093]

I've always been a fan of space, but then I found out about environmental engineering and was originally super fascinated with the idea of it. I went on to further learn about the occupation and found out its not all I thought it was, considering in field work. Then, I debated mechanical, electrical, and aerospace engineering, in which I found out that you use a lot of both electrical and mechanical engineering in aerospace, so I thought "wow perfect, so I'll do aerospace and get to experience all of them." But then I remembered I'm still 13 and only at Algebra 2, and havent even seen a spec of physics. I know I want to pursue an engineering course, but right now I'm leaning towards aerospace or mechanical.

The most important thing is to be fairly informed before starting university... At the end of lyceum, I went for computer engineering, and JHC i hated every second of it. Then I moved to robotics, and I'm doing some cool stuff, but it's still not enough for me. I'm moving to electrical at my master's, and I'll have to take some extra classes So, be really through while choosing your university studies, it's important.

[@oldbutbold]

Oh yeah there will be some classes which we don't like at all and just want to get out of the way. Yes Power Engineering also didn't sit well with me either. Yet years later Power Electronics is so important in industrial automation due to Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). I definitely identify with the nothing-to-offer-to-companies feeling. Also entertained thoughts about doing something else if I went back to school. One thing that you got lucky with was to get a job in which you really got to work like an engineer. Yes it was short, but IMO better than a maintenance engineer.

I ended up where I was due to my chemistry teacher enrolling me into the chemistry Olympics in 9th grade which seeing as I almost actively avoided learning about it outside of school mental I dropped out right after the introduction talks (thinking back I think I could have gotten somewhere if I actually tried but after seeing the look on the face of the girl which helped us with some example questions when I asked her what a mol was I decided it was not worth the effort and the trouble*) but I found the lectures very interesting and decided that chemistry would probably be the path I would choose. Afterwards I took chemistry and maths for my Leistungskurs**, failed both more or less due to a combination of not really understanding the difference between being able to understand and being able to recall reliable and my teacher (who I got in both math in chemistry), let's just say we were not compatible. But I still found chemistry interesting applied for chemistry, then a friend told me about chemical biology which was extremely similar but had some parts in it which I found more interesting (and completely misunderstood) so I also applied for that, didn't get in at first due to my grades, then got in because somebody else did not take his place, had my maths introduction course in which I both learned more maths in 1½ days then I had in my entire life and refound my love for math, then later in the chemistry introduction course I learned that studying chemistry was apparently considered to be very hard and time consuming (considering the reactions of the people around me I was probably the only one who did not know this) and yeah, that's how I ended up in chemistry. **Leistungskurs is 1 of 2/3(depending on you state) courses you have to choose for your two final years in Gymnasium (the German form of school not the one where you do sports), they cover more stuff and go more into detail on the specific subject then the regular courses. *When I was younger I would often just say the answer to any question the teacher asked (not volunteerely just out of reflex) and it would be worse the more I knew about the subject and the more bored I got which seeing as I could often predict the questions ahead of them being asked even without further looking into it (I had a rather mint upbringing with both my parents being pretty knowledgeable even outside their fields and they also would always try to explain everything I was interested in which was basically everything except for analysis of literature.)

Do you have any advice on what colleges I should take or any advice in general for pursuing an engineering degree/career?

I took Ap physics c and Ap physics 1 and Ap calculus AB in my senior year 🤩

[@keziahwil5573]

I really love engineering

[@nadanouichi7691]

Am I the only one feeling that I am missing out on the hands-on experience being a junior engineering student in college..( due to the pandemic and the lockdown ..)? Like sometimes I wonder .. Do I even have enough skills to offer for a certain company..?

[@rizkyryan5207]

What did you think of mechanical engineering back then and how does it differ now(after you create this channel and research more)?

[@destinyovbiebo8988]

they are both related or interwoven. my dad did mech; I'm elect.

I'm about to be a 2nd year engineer and I keep going back and forth between civil and electrical. I should have 2 major classes in CE and 1 major class in EE under my belt by the end of Sophomore year. My GE's are definitely done by The end of this year.

[@Z_A0099]

Those seem quite different, which did you go with?

[@miscellaneousaccount7203]

@@Z_A0099 oh, I totally forgot about this post. Yeah, they're very different, but they have almost the same "prep for major" classes. I'm considering on a switch to mechanical or aerospace rn. Civil, I mostly like because I was considering the structural concentration.

[@miscellaneousaccount7203]

@@Z_A0099 I actually took the coding class for aerospace instead since it fitted my schedule well, and apparently......it can bypass the EE coding class as well since they're both C and Matlab.

My 2nd year is almost over, and I'm about to hit upper division. I reaaally need to pick quick.

@@miscellaneousaccount7203 what did you pick and why?

I have no clue what I'm going for and I'm a senior I've never take physic [i read books though] I love math. I dont know if there is any way you can give me some ideas.

[@evelynbrylow3624]

I don’t know what type of math you like, but I really like the idea to teaching math myself. It’s a little late for you, but I would have recommended to take a range of physics and engineering in your first year of college, and then, if you like them, keep going in that direction. If not, take like more math classes. And maybe look into tutoring if you like that type of thing. Also, as a junior, I’m feel that so much.... I’m taking my first engineering/physics classes summer before senior year and fall of senior year, even though I decided that I should look into engineering, because of my love of math.

[@Xardos]

I always thought that I would be interested in Electronics, but after I've taken the two classes Digital Design and Electronics, I really doubt that😅

[@calebking7096]

I’m an EE major @ Poly now :)

[@assistanttotheregionalmana5810]

I’m trying to decide which of those three to do, and the problem Is I love aerospace soooooo much, but I’m just worried about job prospects

[@MrPipe007]

I'm a junior computer science major.. I hated math and loved coding. I think sometimes people want to believe there is only one type of personality to be a engineer. FIND WHAT YOU LIKE AND DO IT!

[@thedude5010]

I am taking college-level Calculus 2 as a junior in high school and I am looking to do Electrical Engineering

[@steverocksyo]

Me, chemical engineer, hated my gen chem classes my first year

[@zeromoh5605]

I really enjoy math and physics ,but I enjoy biology the most. I am currently in an engineering university but I have doubts in my mind if this is really the right path for me. I am thinking about thins to keep my mind out of it but I can’t keep my thoughts off it the second I relax ....

[@dariomartinez6358]

If you are thinking about it, then it is probably something, be honest to yourself

[@soberanisfam1323]

Did you stick with engineering? If so, do you like it or did you stick with it for another reason?

[@GOAFPilotChannel]

lmao microprocessor engineering stuff is my fav

[@DarkestKnight2424]

I was bad at math in high school because I didnt want to do the hard work and learn it. Fast forward to now, I hate doing these stupid hourly paid jobs like cashier, Cook, Prep cook, server, usher, runner, dishwasher etc. I've always liked science, alot. I like astronomy the most. I started looking into computer science and it seems pretty interesting especially Artificial intelligence. But then I started looking into robotics and areonuatuc/aerospace engineering So now I dont know which to choose. Even though I was bad at math back then, I am fully ready to dedicate myself to learn all these advance math and classes
