<p>I'm a third semester chem eng student.I'm not feeling my organic chem class. I hate the memorization aspect of it(not necessarily chemistry itself). On the other hand i like my physics 2 class(electricity and magnetism). Should i stick with chem Eng? I have to take another orgo class next semester and i'm not really looking forward to cramming a whole bunch of ***** ONCE AGAIN. And i'm hoping there's a lot more physics involved in chem eng than there is 'memorization of chemistry lit'. I had already narrowed my choices down to the traditional engineering degrees(mech E, EE and chem E) before this semester- I figured it's safest to pick one of these and then specialize in something when i go to graduate school(hopefully by then i've figured out what exactly i want to do with my life). I guess my main question is- do i need to love orgo to be a cehm eng? I'm more of a problem solver- which is why i like math and physics.</p>
<p>I heard orgo was worthless for chemE.</p>
<p>ChemE is more p-chem.</p>
<p>orgo is THE course at virtually every college that is designed to weed out anyone who thought they wanted to be a doctor or a chem E. In other words, I would not make the ultimate decision based on how you are dealing with orgo because you aren't supposed to like it.</p>
<p>I love orgo. But I don't think it really matters. Chem E is all about pi chem so don't worry if you don't like. Just make sure you love physics/math and thermodynamics.</p>
