<p>For a student wanting to do pre-med at SEAS, what would be the easiest major to do fulfill the engineering requirments? I've heard that Financial engineering is the easiest and the best way to fulfill requirements? Is this true?</p>
<p>^ F.E. is decently tough concentration with highly competitive kids who hurt curves. EMS or Applied math would be the easiest for premed. EMS is easy in terms of classes, APMA is very flexible, few requirements but difficult classes.</p>
<p>Other relatively easy majors: Industrial engineering, operations research, earth and environmental eng.</p>
<p>Comp sci I believe has few requirements with difficult classes, sort of like apma. Applied physics doesn’t have that many reqs either. </p>
<p>The others are serious ■■■.</p>
<p>cc - don’t many of the FE core classes overlap with those taken by econ/ems/or majors? if that’s the case, the curve might not be so bad (except for the 4 or so classes that are uniquely FE).</p>
<p>another general question - which majors have classes which require MINIMAL amounts of group work? specifically, is FE such a major?</p>
<p>Engineering Made Simple</p>
<p>wait! no, i mean</p>
<p>Emergency Major Switch</p>
<p>sorry! that’s actually</p>
<p>Engineering Management Systems, an IEOR major.</p>
<p>FE is an apply for concentration within IEOR. in general you need to have taken all the requisite math and done well in it to be ‘accepted’ into the concentration.</p>
<p>my friend in FE said the actual FE specific courses get to be less competitive, but it is kind of an intellectual workshop to get to that point. so concoll is right, it tends to be rough on kids that don’t rock the curve to get in.</p>
<p>apma and ems are the ‘easiest majors’ in the sense that they take a lot of people that had a go at ee or something else but didn’t want to keep on trying. i wouldn’t say any major in seas is ‘easy’ because you still gotta work for it regardless. but apma and ems wont own your life the same way bme does.</p>
<p>In terms of classes EMS seems the best fit since its the easiest even though not as flexible.</p>
<p>can anyone tell me more about EEE? </p>
<p>also, what is the main difference between IE and OR and EMS and FE??? They’re pretty similar so they can’t be THAT different in terms of difficulty?</p>
