[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On a side note I went to an engineering school and I don't think any of the majors are hard for those type of students.

I say that as my roommate was absolutely "big bang" theory brilliant. For him the very difficult Engineering major was super easy. I lost track of him, but I know he went to MIT for Grad School.

For average non STEM majors Engineering is insanely difficult. But the people who do it most are brilliant and for them it comes naturally.   [/quote]

That's a nice anecdote, but I don't think most engineering students are geniuses who find their degrees a breeze.  Over 100,000 bachelor's degrees are awarded by American universities a year.  [/quote]
Less than 0.0002% of the population have IQs 170 and above. So, no, all STEM major are not geniuses. [/quote]

Not only that, but if it was "so easy" for most engineering majors they wouldn't have the longest hours of study among college students.

Even in physics or pure math, nowhere near a majority of students are geniuses.  [/quote]
