Bro left for a couple of years, got new guns and upgraded his editing skills to god level. Good for you man, this is some amazing stuff.

[@JayCity]

Thank you!

[@iGotTheTivo]

Your posture is immaculate

[@navdeepj16]

I remember watching your “day in the life of an engineering student (first year)” back in grade 11. Now I’m in my 2nd year of engineering, crazy how fast time flies. Keep up the good work ❤❤❤

[@Wonkadonk370]

This guy is so underrated

[@simonfredriklund]

*The blitz happening outside* Professor: ok😊 one more slide

[@Fuuzi]

The story telling in this is insane. Very productive day though

[@JayCity]

Thanks Fue!

[@arkb5327]

Really insane production quality of the video. I go to Western as well for Data science as a 2nd year.

[@JayCity]

Thanks! That’s so cool! Good luck with the finals that are approaching soon

[@pizybaker6587]

the bicep veins, god damn bro

[@gracey1075]

Watching this from Kenya 🇰🇪. Am a mechanical engineering student in my second year. I remember watching your videos before i enrolled in this course. The going is good and am glad to see you going on well. Keep doing you. You are a wonderful inspiration.

[@TheSuperFanMan]

An absolute masterpiece of a video! Seems like it was a super productive day.

[@JayCity]

Thanks a ton! It was indeed!

[@hobbes7528]

Damn I watched a video of you like 3 years ago, your body transformation is great💪

[@JayCity]

Thank you!

Your editing skills are damn good. I saw your 2nd yr video and the editing level you improve is unbeatable....❤ Love from INDIA 🇮🇳

[@JayCity]

Thank you for your support!

[@alitalkss]

Great video man! You have inspired me to share my journey as a mechanical engineer aswell:)

[@panthergaming8729]

Keep Going bro, I love your video so much, Keep growing.😊😊😊

[@saadnezami6160]

Jay city with another banger👏🏽🔥

[@0atmeall]

Stumbled across your videos while having my dinner and I gotta say the quality is amazing! Subbed 5 mins in ahaha 🎉 In my final year of high school and you make engineering look fun even though it’s tough. Anyways goodluck with the rest of the year ❤

[@sydneymcarthur1029]

YOOOOOO loving the contentttttt 🤩🤩

[@mapalomukupa6459]

It's been a minute, you've really transformed

[@ATownMLH]

Been a Mechanical Engineer for a few years now and I love it. I do miss the late night study nights and Wawa runs with my friends. Watching this reminded me of all the cool projects I miss working on in school

[@souravchakraborty6766]

I love how you wear Hollister tees. I literally only only Hollister tees preferably either black or gray lol.

[@ahmadbarbir5065]

Bro is finally back

[@footballdude54]

bro upgraded big time

[@errorali39]

Do the soundtracks that you’ve chosen are absolutely fire

[@JayCity]

I’m glad you liked them! I take hours to pick a track lol

[@trey0468]

Amazing video man, keep it up

[@JayCity]

Appreciate it!

[@Mr.Coffee117]

Love the video, I am finally going back to school after so long. Company is paying for my school 100% of it so i am taking advantage the program and studying Computer Information Systems. Going to be different with all the Chat Gpt tools to help study and help with homework. Good Luck to everyone next semester

[@adalh.castro4432]

Its nice to see your day in the life. Pretty different to mine. I´m currently on my final year as a mechanical engineering student as well, over here in Mexico, its 5 years though. Wish you the best man!

[@JayCity]

Thanks! Best of luck with your studies as well!

[@nunu_21]

Been watching you since freshman year man, keep the grind and keep the video coming!

[@JayCity]

[@ericwang10]

Legendary day in the life blooper reel

[@lim9618]

The editing is definitely my favorite part of your vlogs! I would love to see the editing process and what you used for it :)

[@JayCity]

That’s a good idea for a milestone subscriber special! I edit my videos with Final Cut Pro X

[@Life_UnFucked]

Nah ur vids are my motivation man, few more months and I'll get into a college for mechanical engineering too, gonna give JEE. Wish me luck man! Love from India.

[@JayCity]

Good luck with your studies!

[@JayCity]

Spot the imposter at Weldon Library👀

[@taylorross6295]

damn you have intro to nanoengineering lecture TWICE in one day??? mad respects

[@RohanPlayz007]

after a long time broooo

[@jafarrabbimqulov3344]

I graduated in mechanical engineering last year, and it seemed like 4 years of my life was wasted, I learned how to solve these complex equations, but I never learned how to use these things in real life, which always frustrates me.

[@venturer6378]

This video goes incredibly hard.

[@JayCity]

Thank you!

[@JZferda]

I remember watching this before coming to western now I’m the same program haha😵

[@paolotheguy4774]

this guy does better marketing than the university

[@anikateguleria_]

rocketryyyy 🚀🚀

[@JayCity]

Anikate and Nathan are the MVP’s of Rocketry🚀

[@luisramrod9121]

Never thought you can edit a video of making breakfast to look so cool. I wonder if I can make a video of me taking a dump look cool too 😂

[@JayCity]

W comment😂😂

[@sharonjacob5534]

5:18 those were skyquakes maybe

[@zytpxx5311]

Damn u got jacked

[@maesonv23villa-real60]

Someone needs to tell me the songs he uses for his videos. They are fire 🔥

[@Dumawii]

What MacBook do you recommend or use? I want to buy a new one for college for mechanical engineering and I don’t know which one to buy. Btw great video 👌

[@JayCity]

I personally use the M1 Max 16" MacBook Pro because I need the power for video editing. But honestly any of the recently released M-series Macs with at least 16GB of RAM would do the trick just fine. However, a number of Engineering apps are only compatibility with Windows (like SolidWorks or Micro Cap). These are possible to run on Mac with Parallels for Mac 19 (if you wanna do this you should get more RAM). So pick the operating system you prefer and get something with decent graphics.

[@tuanhenry93]

what apps do you take note on the ipad?

[@BigSmokeEnthusiast]

Ik this may be off topic but what’s your skincare routine😂??

[@JayCity]

It’s pretty long😅

[@gamerboy-ve5ib]

I love school

[@thebullet4799]

I'm also a mechanical engineer currently in 3rd yr . Could you tell me what types of skills required as a design mechanical engineer in western side apart form solid work, catia. The job scenario of mechanical engineer in western side is good or bad? . Finding job are difficult or not? Please tell

[@JayCity]

Some good skills to have as an engineer include knowledge in finite element analysis (FEA) and in industry specific software such as MATLAB and other CAD softwares. It is also important to have strong problem solving abilities, a good understanding of manufacturing processes, and excellent communication skills. Regarding the job scenario in the West, it can vary depending on specific locations, industries, and economic conditions. But generally, mechanical engineering is a versatile field with a decent demand. But it would say that the job market is on a decline recently, so it would be harder to find a job at the moment.

[@happyvibes1265]

how many classes are there in a week in mechanical engineering first year

[@sarahn.2571]

At Western University specifically, all first-years go through what is called 'Common First-Year' where they all take the same courses (Chemistry, Physics I and II, etc.) and pursue their preferred specialization. On average, a student would take 7 courses per semester which all have lectures, tutorials and labs associated with them.

[@ericwang10]

muscles and vlogs made in the kitchen

ANOTHER CONTENT CREATOR NAMED ERIC AT WESTERN?
