<p>Good evening</p>
<p>I got my adminssion to Study Civil engineering</p>
<p>But my problem is that I didnt study Math or phyiscs in high school</p>
<p>im afraid that I couldnt success in Civil engineer because I havent got the</p>
<p>basics in maths and physics that I need in High school</p>
<p>Do I still have a chance to get at least a Diploma in civil engineer ?</p>
<p>and do I need to be good in Maths to study civil engineer ?</p>
<p>I look forward to hear your opinions</p>
<p>if u haven’t studied math or physics, then it’s impossible to be a civil engineer. you have absolutely no chance to get a diploma in civil engineering. go study something else.</p>
<p>How did you even get through high school without studying some kind of math? College really isn’t the time to play catch-up on what you missed in high school. I had a brief intro to calculus and physics in high school and I was at a big disadvantage when I got to college.</p>
<p>I am sure this guy/girl has SOME math. Maybe they just mean they didn’t take precalc/calc in high school.</p>
<p>abbood1,</p>
<p>The college you got into wouldn’t have accepted you if they didn’t think you had a chance at being successful. If you are just concerned because you haven’t taken calculus or physics yet, don’t worry about it. You may be a little behind, but there is a reason that calc and physics are part of the required first year sequence in any engineering program. They don’t assume you have already had these subjects.</p>
<p>You don’t really need much of a physics background 'cause they teach it from the beginning in college. You do need a strong geometry and pre-cal background tho. If you haven’t at least taken geometry, algebra, and pre-cal, then yes, you will struggle.</p>
<p>Stay away from civil!!! Any other engineering but civil…</p>
<p>rheidzan- Why exactly do you say any engineering but civil? Are you refering to the current job market or something else?</p>
<p>Rheidzan is a municipal engineer in LA and has a tendency to be pessimistic about his career choices. He’s referring to the economy, but it’s still not as apocalyptic as he makes it out to be.</p>
<p>
Because for the past 20 years or so job growth (openings) in civil has not kept up with the number of graduating civils. It’s the reason why you WILL (by the time you graduate) need a masters just to find a decent work in civil.
I know too many un/underemployed licensed civils.</p>
<p>
And aibarr is living in a bubble, or something, and tends to be super optimistic…</p>
