Major: Chemical Engineering (This Major's Salary over time)
I honestly picked the school because of it's campus. I had it down to two really good engineering schools, and this one had the better campus. I am double majoring and the differences in the challenge of the classes between majors is insane to think about. One I can get an A no sweat, the other I'm struggling (along with everyone else).If you are going to engineering, 40% to 80% averages are normal. It's hard to see how poorly you did, but stay above average and your grade will be fine. It's done this way to push students. How well can you do? How far can you think? How well do you memorize, learn, problem solve? I know my current employer is thankful for my background. Don't complain, just do the work and you will get far. (Note - if you want to party, switch majors - everyone has a major that is easy for them, and everyone has a major that is hard.)
