Can't keep your eyes off the candy eh?

 

If you go to any standard 2 or 4 year school expect to take lots of gen ed courses. I'm a History B.A. major and out of the 122ish credits needed to graduate from my university, only about 40 of them are in History. At my university as a History B.A. (not for teaching) you also have to take a minor so that's another 18 credits. Everything else is electives and gen ed courses. Don't worry though they're not too bad and you only usually need 2 classes of each.

 

i dont know about you guys but senior year sucks ><

3 APs FTL!

 

Senior year WAS AWESOME! XD 3 free periods, 2 in a row. Super Smash Bros. in the Senior Lounge. Hell yeah!

 

seriously man? dang schools sound pretty legit in TN

 

tha's why i love GEs (Gen Ed. not GE8s haha)

I'm a mechanical engineering major, so most of my classes have like 2 girls.

now im in philosophy this qtr. and its like 75% girls. Jackpot!

Advice: don't forget what you learned in high school. Some of it actually comes back to haunt you if you forget it.

 

ME's represent. =P

I still got 3 or so liberal studies to get out of the way. Philosophy sounds right up my alley XD

 

OK I have a question. Has anyone heard or done dual enrollment. This is when you do college classes while still being in high school. If anyone has done this, how is it? Is it worth it?

 

not in my school, BUT, we do have classes called AP, or advanced placement, where you go to class and you study real hard for a semester, take a fat ass test at the end of the semester with a fee from 80 to 120 and if you pass that test, you earn those credits automaticly in college, one less class off your mind.

 

Yea I took one class back in HS, it nice if you don't have a busy life. and plus get you a head in College and prepare you too...there is another thing call Middle College is where you go to Jr. College and get credit for both HS and College classes, but I wouldn't recommend it b/c you lose the whole HS feeling and fun stuff in HS when going to middle college. And it for student who hate HS....

 

what would a degree in mechanical engineering be used for once out of college? if it is something that could get me a higher up job with a car manufacturer ill prolly major in that.

 

mechanical engineering can get more then just working at car manufacturer!!!! You can be working with civil engineer, aero-space engineer, environmental engineer, and a lot more....then just a car manufacturer

 

True, true. Engineers work together. Think of the engineering that goes into a car! Electrical [and/or computer], mechanical, and maybe some civil engineers!

YOU CANT ESCAPE US MWAHAHAHAHA

also, fcuk Physics II. I hardly get any of this electrical crap.

 

i'm about to start another school towards my career. yay i'm excited

 

Lol. I already take AP classes. AP psycho .

I have no life, so its ok. Naw. Its just that I wanna see if I could do dual enrollment (I know what it is by the way) either part time (hs from 7:30 to 1 and college from like 1:30 to 4 or something) or full time (finish high school and start college at the same time). I dont know which one to do. Half of my friends are doing it for sure and some aren't.

 

what should i major in if i want to work with suspension or brakes for cars?

 

Engineering.

More specifically, Mechanical Engineering, then go to an automotive technical school afterwards.

At least, that's my course of action. Lots of math >_<

 

so if i wanted to work for tein or something like that major in ME?

 

YAY! Early Release FTW! School is boring. Ha, mood swings.

 

yeah. ME is pretty broad, you can do a lot with it. I'm planning to do something in the automotive industry. The math can be killer though! I have a midterm in Linear Analysis tomorrow. Wish me luck. I'll be studyin all day.
