<p>I am thinking of pursuing Electrical and Electronic engineering for my Bachelor's degree. On a purely intellectual level, I don't think I have problem; I never faced any difficulties with complex Mathematics/Physics at high school. But I am worried that my extremely poor motor skills will be a severe handicap during the many lab sessions that are required of an engineering degree. Do you forsee a problem in the course of my study, especially during projects/lab sessions? Does EEE require a lot of "hands on" work?</p>
<p>This is probably the only thing that is putting me off from studying engineering.</p>
<p>Seriously, though, the stereotypical engineer is a complete klutz. Engineers would not have gotten that rep if you couldn't get through engineering without stellar fine motor skills. ;) If you're interested in engineering, don't worry about it! Do what you can and get help for the rest.</p>
<p>You'll be the kid that does really well on homework assignments, hopefully helps his friends out, and then when lab rolls around your friends will be willing to take on the hands-on parts of lab (since they might enjoy that section, as well).</p>

<p>Nope. Soldering might be a little harder for you, but pretty much everyone sucks at starting to solder, so I wouldn't worry. You won't be alone, either.</p>
