[quote=Anonymous]Ok I went to a school I thought I’d be happier in rather than the best engineering school I could go to. I’ve done well. Well enough. Got good jobs. I studied to become a mechanical engineer because I was good at math, loved physics but wanted a j.o.b. And didn’t know what I could do with physics. Three years in I discovered materials science and my mind was blown. I had found my passion. But my school was too small. It had accredited engineering, but wasn’t big enough to have materials science as a major. And I was there on scholarship and couldn’t transfer easily. I am definitely cautioning my own DS about those type things. If you go to a school that doesn’t really do what you want to study, chances are good you will end up feeling like it’s missing some of the things you want to study. Stuff you don’t even know about yet when you’re a HS senior. Good luck. [/quote]
