<p>In general does the engineering department have the same difficulty for these schools: usc, ucsd, and cal poly slo. Which would be easiet, and which would be hardest. if it depends on the major then mechanical and computer engineering.</p>
<p>Ugh. You should be in the business school if you are looking for the easiest path. Don't you prefer one thing or the other? Don't you actually care about what you are learning other than what the path of least resistance is?</p>
<p>I can't stand posts like this!</p>
<p>i was just wondering because of the difficulty because i want to go to grad school and get my masters. I know engineering will be hard so i want to go to a school where i can get a higher gpa. Some schools have combined bs/ms programs. I mean i'm not going to base my college selection on that factor alone. If i really wanted a higher gpa then i'd go to a lower tier school. These 3 are probably around the same prestigue and all so i was wondering if one school's engineering department was insane and i'd struggle only to be a c student; wheras, another school is easier. I wouldn't want to struggle in a school where i'm taught by ta's who don't know how to teach.</p>
<p>I'm interested in engineering not business. I'm not looking towards breezing through college because i know engineering will be hard. I hear computer is the hardest so that kind of concerns me a little. I'm interested in both engineering majors but i'm still a little undecided. I think computer engineering is fascinating but i dont know much about computers to really know. I mean i built my computer so i know some things but i never took programming classes. I may end up hating it. At first i wanted to become a mechanical engineer because i loved learning about mechanics in my ap physics class. I know i'm not the only person who's undecided with engineering. Maybe i dont' know which i prefer because i keep changing my mind. I've been interested in aerospace and biomedical before. I ruled those out because i think i would have a better chance w/ mechanical and computer engineerning because i can work for those industries as well.</p>
<p>i'm with kiddly. they are all hard.</p>
<p>if you're planning on becoming an engineer then rational analysis is important. The first thing you ought to realize is that there is nobody who went thru the undergrad program 3 times, one at each of the schools you mention. The second is that all engineering programs are ABET acredited, meaning you cover the same subjects no matter where you go. At Caltech or other elite schools they may expect more in each class, but within the same tier you're going to study the same things from the same books.</p>
