2010 Engineer Here

<p>I know a few AEM majors, the only study they do is for their other majors.</p>

<p>haha harvardman1988, I don't know.. but the bonus points are where it's at with pedro.. I ****ing hate that guy but I definitely loved the A+ in 120</p>

<p>yea pedro is retarded, hes giving a curve in 220 where he multipleis your score by 10 and then divide it by 9. which means the higher you get, the more you are benefited from the curve. </p>

<p>someone send him back to venezuela... ju no</p>

<p>I know, but I mean how difficult is the AEM major compared to biology or engineering majors?</p>

<p>aquamarinee, let's just say the words AEM and difficult should never appear in the same sentence.</p>

<p>Trust me, I'm trying to double major in bio and AEM, and I would have to say that AEM is THE easiest major here at Cornell. There is a reason why all hockey players (among other varsity athletes) are all AEM majors, except for the few in the hotel school.</p>

<p>What's the difference between Biological Engineering (CALS) and Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (Engineering) ? Is a double major possible (with AEM) ? Also would I be better off applying to Engineering (I believe Biological Engineering is jointly offered by CALS and Engineering) because of the higher acceptance rate ?</p>

<p>Riley Robb is far. Engineering quad is closer. you can double major if ur in CALS</p>

<p>Sorry, was that addressed to me ?</p>

<p>how do you guys think a physics or math major compares to engineering in difficulty, work load, etc. ?</p>

<p>CALS v. Engineering: If you are from NY then it is way cheaper to be in CALS, but the program is identical. Riley Robb is the bioengineering building for either school, so it's far away in general. If you are in CALS you can double major, you can't double major between CALS and ENG (so no double major in AEM), but Engineering does offer an AEM minor.</p>

<p>Depends which science, bio or chem major would definately be easier than bioengineering or chemical engineering. Physics is just plain hard and so is math.</p>

<p>Hello guys, I applied as a Physics major, but the rigor and idealogy of AEP sounds very attractive.. So does AEP have around 1:1 Ratio between Engineering-oriented and physics-oriented courses, or is it shifted to a 2:1ish?
Also becoming a doctor sounds great too, so would I have the time to pack Bio intro (with lab) and one 200 course and a Chem 200 (with lab) course into my schedule? Would that be suicidal..?
Ah and one last and most essential question, what's the earlist time I can switch from CAS (phy major) into CoE?</p>

<p>well, you could manage it. Chem is required for all Engineering majors, so you can take the necessary chem sequence. Also, there are 6 "technical" electives required for graduation, so your premed reqs (sciences) can count as those. Probably start the internal transfer process as soon as possible. Make sure you talk to someone, like an advisor, as soon as you get on campus so that you can find out what you need to do.</p>

<p>How flexible is the engineering curriculum in Cornell. Besides fulfilling all the requierments, would you still have time to take some courses you're interested in?</p>

<p>So will I more of a chance applying to CoE than CALS or is the CoE pool VERY self-selective. I mean both CALS and CoE offer a major in Biological Engineering (The only reason I'm slanted towards CALS is because of AEM, however you can minor in AEM from CoE right ?)</p>

<p>I don't want to jeopardise my chances of getting into Cornell by applying to CALS (which has a lower acceptance rate than CoE).</p>

<p>eslite, unless you are OR, no.</p>

<p>is eng major harder/more time consuming than premed?</p>

<p>it depends, but the engineering workload won't be any less than that of a typical pre-med.</p>

<p>How hard is it to take a duel degree in BEE (Biological Engineering) and music?</p>

<p>probably extremely difficult, as the two majors are completely unrelated and in different colleges.</p>
