i'm a high school senior, and I'll be going to college for my aerospace engineering degree (yeah, im gay)
How much experience do such programs require? I fear that all the students in my class will be very ahead due to already grasping the concepts. I know a bit, but not much. I can't just make my own model plane and fly it.
Undergrad doesn't require any fucking knowledge.
Seriously. You'll get there and be surprised that some of these kids can get dressed in the morning. You'll also find some people who are absolutely brilliant. Then you'll find your niche and be happy and productive, just like everyone there.
t. UC Berkeley MechE.

very much this.
one of the guys I started university with is on the verge of completing his engineering master's and whenever he sees two sigmas in a row his brain stops functioning for a short while.
I dropped out though because I think it's just a massive circus.

Engineers, gentlemen.
Wrong board. /adv/ is the place to ask.

You might meet 10 people in your program who fall under this category.
If you got accepted to the program, the university already determined that you met the prerequisites. Why the fuck do you think that you have to apply for college in the first place?
No, /adv/ will fucking give generic advice. Veeky Forums actually has people who can give decent advice
doesn't two sigmas just mean every combination of the indexed terms? What's hard to understand about that
Seriously, don't worry. I went into engineering feeling like a moron because I'd only had calc 1. Currently a senior and have the highest gpa in my class. You'll be absolutely amazed at how retarded people are l. The only reasoning engineering sucks because you have to work a lot, but the work isn't hard.
>aerospace engineers
>having anything to do with planes
Wew lad
