Hello everyone,
The title says it all, really. I'm simply curious as to who is/was studying what. If you are studying/have studied more than one area, what is the one that you take the most from?
If you count as other, I apologize, I didn't select enough options.
I am doing a Bachelor's in electrical engineering.
Thanks,
Alessandro

There should be one more option that says "none of the above, please specify".... that would be my selection.
I studied aviation...

At least you didn't select Humanities/Social Studies. As the sole member (so far) of that category... you now know why I'm always bitching about being broke :p

Yep, sorry about that, I was too shortsighted to get 8 options.

Not sure where Air Frame and Power Plant management stands.
But I start school on the 20th of August to start my career on working on airplanes.
All we can do is go *up* from here.

I was lazy and did not yet have my ADD diagnosed. I have near photographic memory, however, so test were easy for me. I graduated with a 3.9 on a 5 point scale. I think on the 4pt scale I had a 3.5

I was heavily involved in choir, and my first year of college I went to LSU on a full ride for vocal performance. That's when the trouble started for me. I did quite poorly and was later diagnosed with ADD.

Never really applied myself. Could of done better if I hadn't been so busy being a rebel of one kind or another ;)

How'd you guys do in Highschool?

Slept through all of it, graduated top 10%, 3.6gpa.

When I say slept through all of it, I mean it. I was threatened with not graduating my senior year because I was late and missed so many of my first period AP psych classes.

I had the third highest average in the class despite that though, so they just made me stay for detention for 3 weeks. Slept through that too :p

Edit: I didn't finish college - just didn't/don't see the point. My grades were good, or decent, but I failed most classes based on attendance. Why should I waste 10k a semester, when I get enough from reading a book to pass, or do decent in the class? Some of my classes I literally showed up only for the tests. Then I find out that for every absence they take off a percentage of the grade? :wtf: No thank you...

Didn't feel the need to justify my existence with an expensive piece of paper much to the dismay of my family. Course didn't help later on in life :)
