<p>Thanks for all the great responses. I should probably realize that no job will be easy, not just engineering. Can anyone tell me how much of engineering is mostly finding creative solutions to difficult problems? Since that isn’t one of my fortes. However, I still have applied math as my top choice right now, but everyone knows how much people change their minds. Could someone tell me how much success I could have with only an undergraduate degree in applied math? Where(as in what field) would I have the most success finding a job? Any other info on applied math would be greatly appreciated since it is such a vague term. Also, MaineLonghorn could you tell me a little bit more about how you manage to be a self employed engineer?</p>
