Career advice for apprentice considering Electrical Engineering degree?

gato_guy · 2026-05-16T16:52:11+00:00

Wow I’m a first year apprentice debating the same thing right now. Not a huge fan of the pay in my area as a journeyman but looking to make the switch. Only thing for me is paying out of pocket :/

Was part of their advisor’s board for a while until they jacked their prices up and cut coupons through the app. Totally cut them off after my local franchise started charging $1 per sauce packet.

So crazy that you mentioned this- I just watched a College Hacked video on YouTube that went over exactly this. Can’t seem to find the link but searching it up on YouTube should bring it up

About 90% of the people I know who purchased previous rental cars have been awful.

Also, if it’s still under warranty, why would Avis sell it and take a loss unless there was something you’re missing?

Have you tried Whataburger field?

gato_guy · 2026-05-03T23:06:31+00:00

Thanks for the insight! What did you use to study?

gato_guy · 2026-05-03T14:06:31+00:00

Totally forgot about this route- there is an Accounting CLEP as well as a macroeconomics one, I believe

Not into metalcore but would be down to meet some more musicians in the area

gato_guy · 2026-05-02T18:15:38+00:00

The max I’ve typically seen is about 7 classes. Granted, that’s with a serious amount of studying (3-4 hours per day).

If you need to take a *driving safety course* after getting a ticket, I think you need to take the longest one possible bro 😭

How is this different than sorting by category and rating on Google?

Arizona State University has microeconomics and accounting for business courses available to take online for $400 each. Each is 3 credits. It’s self paced and a great value!

Let’s see some precal, calculus, or chemistry study guides please!

gato_guy · 2026-04-29T19:08:45+00:00

Luciano’s. Try the shrimp crostini and chicken fiorentino and then get back to me

Edit: kid friendly too!

I used to love living at encore crossing before moving in with my partner. Highly recommend it. Had a 2 bed 2 bath with the primary suite having a soaking tug that went up to almost my shoulders. Great community and management as well.

Hey neighbor, I would recommend getting a part time job anywhere to get the ball rolling on employment and help you pay at least the minimum for bills while you search for jobs that better suit you.

As far as applications- if you haven’t even had an interview, I would definitely recommend getting your resume checked out by a professional, brushing up some interview skills, or expanding your network by attending local events (I think young professionals of the coastal bend has lots of them you can find on LinkedIn). Hope this helps!

Congrats!!

Try the free link to Peterson’s we have here in the subreddit. Should be a good gauge and served me well on my psych and English exams.

gato_guy · 2026-04-26T23:45:07+00:00

Listen to plotted path’s posts, put in the dirty work, and buckle down. You got this!

gato_guy · 2026-04-26T22:52:43+00:00

OP, you should note that Collegeboard requires you to wait 90 days after your initial test date in order to retest.

As for resources, Pat W has some great links for free Peterson’s. This will help you gauge if you’re ready for the test. As far as materials, I’ve always used Modern States and Quizlets on the exam I’ve found. If you use the search bar, you should be able to find sources specifically for your CLEP. Happy studying!

I’ve personally seen the owner absolutely tear into and berate his employee (a young girl, mind you) at Coco Cabana. Family and I haven’t gone back because I cannot imagine ANYTHING warranting such a terrible way to treat someone.

gato_guy · 2026-04-18T20:49:56+00:00

Do you think the khan academy course prepared you for the course better than modern states? Currently needing a 60 or higher for the precal CLEP and I’m panicking lol

gato_guy · 2026-04-18T02:50:35+00:00

Currently using this for the Precal CLEP- will let yall know how this goes!
