Do I Have to Be a Nerd to Be an Engineer?

[Mr_Orsum]

Just remember, if someone can invent this stuff, you can learn it ;)

^^ I liked this :) Really makes you think about all those things we find "too hard" or "impossible". I'm half way though my final year of high school, having returned after dropping out for 2 years (best decision EVER). So here's my 2 cents worth:

What does it matter if engineering is "for nerdy" (lol) grow up and get over it. Listen to what others have said in this thread as I'm sure they are far more knowledgeable than myself. And for goodness sake, lrn beta comunicashon skilzz..

You are going to let one teacher decide your future?

most of the nerds in my school are in the math and physics department, apart from the chinese and arabs that can't speak english very well most of the engineers here at least are all pretty loud, semi obnoxious, and talk lots of sht most of the time but I live in miami so lots of the hispanic engineers are cuban so that's normal for them
