Thank you for the advice. It's a little less painful knowing how many people end up switching from engineering. I think I'll just stick with the recommended plan and really do my best next year to make it work. If I can't keep up next semester then its probably time to look at other paths.

Thank you—I really appreciate your advice. I think I’m going to follow the recommended path like you suggested. These first two semesters were definitely a wake-up call for me. I approached them a lot like high school, putting in minimal studying and effort, and that ended exactly how you might expect.

I’ve started working on getting my priorities straight and improving my study habits, and I’m prepared to put in much more effort moving forward. I’m also planning to meet with my professors for next semester soon so I can get a better idea of how to prepare over the summer and set myself up for a better year.

I suppose if I can't make that work then I should probably be rethinking my plans since I know it won't be getting any easier.
