I wouldn't say getting accepted to a master's degree program is impossible for a person with a low GPA. It will be difficult though. Larger schools may not consider your application upon seeing a low GPA. Some smaller schools (which potentially have great programs) could accept you as a...

I can not answer your first two questions, but I can answer your third. When I was researching colleges to attend for an engineering degree, I saw that most schools recommended a chemistry class before entering college. I saw two that I researched that required a high school chemistry class...

If you are wanting to get a degree in engineering, I would suggest you learn how to choose your resources and research on your own. You'll have to do that a lot in and engineering program... or any program for that matter.

Stating that you hold a BSEE when in fact you hold a BSEET would not be the wisest thing to do. You may be put in a position where you can not perform the duties required because your education did not prepare you for those duties. For some jobs, employees who hold a BSE or a BSET perform many...

If you are interested in getting into nuclear and power engineering, I would suggest looking into relocating to West Virginia. Most government contract jobs that deal with nuclear research are in that area. As far as working for a consulting firm, you are going to find some difficulty finding a...

I just graduated college last year with a degree in mechanical engineering. I do not feel that I have the experience helping you with your report. However, I would like to make a suggestion. I had to write a report similar to what you are writing. Getting answers online from a forum is not the...

You state each object in terms of "A,B,C,..." You may have a better chance if you provide a diagram for your question.

I would also suggest you look into Airbus and Cessna in order to keep your career options open. Even if you don't get a job with Boeing immediately following college, getting a job with a company in a similar field is a gateway and a great opportunity to gain some experience.

I would suggest surfing the Boeing career page for interns and graduates: http://www.boeing.com/employment/collegecareers/index.html Boeing made an appearance every year at the university I attended. I spoke with them on several occasions. The basic requirements to get a job with Boeing...

If you can't get the answers you are looking for from an admissions counselor, then I would suggest getting in contact with one of the professors through email. State your concerns and tell him or her about your academic background, study habits, interests, etc... You may not get an immediate...
