Hello, I am a recent admit to the Aerospace Engineering program at Texas A&M, I have just completed the prerequisite classes to get into upper level AERO. Not sure if other universities have this same requirement. Anyways, I am taking my first AERO class next fall, Intro to aero mechanics. This is my first post and I thought this would be a good place to introduce myslef, I have taken up an interest in physics since my electricity and magnetism class and I have come here with a lot of curiosity on the subject. If there is any advice yall would like to share I would be glad to hear it. I am curious about what I might be getting into.

Welcome to PF, Texag.
To start with, that should be y'all, since it's a contraction for 'you all'. :tongue:
A Mentor will probably move this to GD. Be prepared to state what your favourite fish is.
Congrats upon your acceptance.
