<p>I'm a community college student in south bay Los Angeles and I am majoring in electrical engineering (we'll see if I do good in physics first though before its a for sure thing).
I'm taking ordinary differential equations (petitioned), cal 3, and electromagnetic physics. I haven't been able to take any real engineering courses because I got to a community college and I am rushing the major prep and was trying to rush GEs too. Basically I have not took one summer or intersession break.</p>
<p>I did a very stupid thing and applied to Math REUs, not knowing math REUs have high requirements compared to chem and physics. So I got rejected to one and am drop dead certain the other one will follow.</p>
<p>I have no classes that my school offers that need to be completed. I could take a somewhat related class like Econ or stats for the hell of it. But unless I pay for CSULB's summer courses without FA or travel 20 miles a day to take classes in Pasadena or Santa Monica community college, I'm screwed for the summer.</p>
<p>Any help, tips, ideas? Motivational messages? Hell, even complaints or insults?
I don't want to waste my summer. Non career related jobs are great for money but I prefer to blitz my lower division requirements in order to finish UG in total of 5 years.</p>
