We had plenty of socialization and fun while also doing our engineering work. There is so much opportunity to put the work into action with research projects and also great traditions like buggy and booth. all very time consuming and I have life long amazing friends from my time there but can’t speak to how things are now

NG's mom agrees with this post, the workload is undeniably hard but manageable, DS made amazing lifelong friends, most of whom are now at top companies
