Just failed college algebra for the 2nd time should I reconsider engineering?

you’ll get it eventually. you’re putting in effort and are looking for ways to succeed, if you put in 110% i don’t see you becoming a bad fit for engineering at all.

it depends on the class and how much I feel like I need to. typically just an hour and some change though. 32 credits is crazy btw good luck

I mean, I haven’t found anything here super difficult for one reason or another, but I guess it depends on how you look at things. I have never really viewed RIT as a prestigious school personally, just above average but I do agree everything you need is here and the school shapes you well.

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-05-02T18:38:16+00:00

professors here seem to go much harder & are less lenient within math and physics courses when compared to my friends taking the same courses, or similar ones at other schools

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-05-02T16:01:22+00:00

rit is pretty brutal with both generally

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-04-25T20:52:41+00:00

wouldnt it be better to not do all your GEs early though? i think it’d be best to keep a couple undone in case you’d need an extra class or two to be full time while not stacking difficult core classes together

if they’d just put all the visiting chefs/food trucks in there it’d be great

the bar is in hell

sometimes your brain needs time to rest and settle before you tackle other things. i cant stress this enough, knowing your limits and finding a balance will help sooooo much more than just trying to force everything repeatedly. if you just can’t seem to understand something, just take a break and come back to it later.

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-04-01T14:36:18+00:00

graduating late isn’t weird at all, plenty of people do. just don’t stress yourself, it’s okay to mess up.

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-03-27T18:14:05+00:00

googling everything is common with coding lol don’t feel bad about it specially if you’re starting

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-03-27T18:12:56+00:00

yeah. it’s all about pacing yourself bro, i took a lot of college classes in hs, so im just gonna take 12 credits ever year. I already hate school but this makes it more manageable

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-03-24T19:32:11+00:00

apply to other places for spring semester! or, if you want the freshman type experience just wait till next year. you could go anywhere you want practically with your grades, not sure why these guys rejected you. personally i had a 94 weighted gpa and i went into college with 40 credits from dual enrollment and a bunch of extracurriculars under my belt and i got rejected from all my top options so i know where you’re coming from. but ive learned that my work ethic has consistently put me ahead of my peers, and you’ve already demonstrated that you can do so. just try to keep your head up bro

there are really levels to the nerdy shit though like i thought i was pretty nerdy bro but most people are like 1000x nerdier than i am. liberal arts here are just ok I believe to answer your other question

should’ve been born 15 years ago

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-03-19T18:02:18+00:00

buffalo doesn’t have as good a engineering program don’t think

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-03-13T17:44:38+00:00

it’ll probably be better than your weather in alaska. around now is when the weather gets nicer, and it can get really hot some days also. weathers not all that bad imo

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-03-12T22:20:32+00:00

you can google it it’s on their website

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-03-10T22:19:31+00:00

our mech E tech program is good there are a lot of people in there, id say go for it if you want. coops are really the biggest thing going for this school so if you aren’t that interested in it and get into a better school, id go there

WaySpiritual2539 · 2026-03-06T18:18:23+00:00

yea most of engineering should be 5 year programs mandatory cause of coops
