@Themathaw my son is a Civil, close to finishing so he’s fine. Very strong student in HS (well over 4.0) and found engineering more difficult than he expected. Glad to hear your son did well in AP Physics. How’s his math - that to me is the key to being able to successfully navigate an engineering program. If you’re weak in that area it’s going to be a long hard slog. The challenge with ME is the field is quite broad, so finding the right fit of specialization and job opportunities is key.
