One thing besides the importance of education that I've always had drilled into my head is that I need to leave Ohio after college. My parents would probably kill me if I settled down here.
That said, I'm currently stuck choosing between Case Western Reserve and Purdue. I like Case better...
Anyone else? If I only had a Bachelor's degree in engineering, would I be able to get very far with a job, or would I have to go on to grad school almost immediately? Is that something that can be done part time, as I work?
The master's thing is a 5 year deal from Case that gets you doing master's classes as an undergrad to get both degrees in 5 years.
Ewww... Actually, I'd put it towards school. But even if I didnt need it for school it wouldn't go there.
I'm currently a senior in high school. I've wanted to be an engineer since pretty much forever, and I'm headed in the right direction as far as classes go (AP Calculus, AP Physics, AP Chem, etc).
The concern I have is college. After 5 years of it, I'm pretty sure I'm going to want to start...
