When I studied mechanical engineering in the late 1970s, I was terrified of falling behind. There was no "Plan B" if I flunked out, so In my entire university career I NEVER missed a class! Never. Not one. You'll see other students in bull$h!t majors skipping classes, but don't do it if you're studying engineering.
Heres some suggestions advice for young ones. Clep out of chemistry AND have differential equations down cold before starting college. Learn a trade while you are doing this! Get a ham radio license to keep your feet wet in electronics. Electrical engineering is ALL math. It *is not* building cute little circuits on a breadboard. Something I really didn't understand when I was 13-14 years old even though I would be pouring through the circuit and data books at the time (this was pre-internet pre-computer). Also address any learning disabillities before you pay one cent to college or take out one loan. This is specifically EE advice. I can honestly say I do not think it is the career that it once was and has become too niche and disrespected by 29 year old woke HR managers with gender study degrees. Also expect to have to MOVE. As the job you want is most likely far-flung. I could go on but at this point I'd probably get banned/cancelled by something/somebody.
@@kpNov23 the other thing I'd recommend is don't sass people indiscriminately. Because what happens is it goes from one person to another person how you're really hard to work with. Then when the layoffs come you're the first to go.
So the problem is there are really only two areas that are thriving in EE world. Micro electronics (i.e. making integrated circuits) or designing heavy power electronics. Anything else is really minuscule to those two areas. If those are where you want to be go at it. Otherwise take up shoe repair and open up a shoe shop because there will be more demand for that!! What's totally bonkers is I have more electronic tech experience than you can shake a stick at but for some reason fast food jobs in California are paying more than electronic tech jobs where I'm at in many cases. The reason being is businesses when something breaks literally throw away anything electronic and they then buy something designed and made in China. Right now it feels like a gender studies degree is fantastic to have but too bad they freeze out men from taking these.

how old r u
Thanks for being so honest and eager to help
Great idea, love your vids
I am yet to write my review for your amazing book i got on Audible. Doing this week for sure. credit where credit is due. Amazing work.
Hey thanks! Much appreciated. Glad you liked it.
I am currently needing to finish 5 classes before entering my program. I can transfer into my program for mechanical engineering.
Currently perusing my Mechanical engineering Degree 1st Year 💪
Let’s go!
I don't know Jack about functions and or calculus and I'm starting mechanical engineering in september.
Are functions important?
Yes they are … but you will learn them. Don’t worry to much. I had to start at college algebra.

Good to know 👍🏾
What does a Ham Radio License do?
Looks like your advice is to be a business major as they have so much power over you apparently

Is Biomedical Engineering a good career if we matched it up with Computer/Software Engg.?
100%
Bro I'm choosing electrical and electronics engineering is it best for future
