<p>Based on the research I've done and my general impression of the school, it seems that the ECE program at CMU is very rigorous and difficult. I'm a little nervous about how well I'm going to do my first year (which is the most important). If I have taken Vector Calculus and Differential Equations, AP Physics, and AP Stat (and I've done well for the most part), and I have a good work ethic, what will it take to succeed at CMU? Should I be taking any engineering/math/science courses in the summer before I join CMU this fall? </p>
<p>Nah, essentially all you need is a really good work ethic and time management skills. Once you have that, you can go faaaaar. If CMU didn’t think you could handle it, the wouldn’t have admitted you :)</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
