Engineering is tough on the body, almost all the girls in there are beat. The other thing I don't like is the entitlement many of the students feel, sure you're smart, but it's not attractive. Many of them could use some social graces.
i hear ya, i ended up having to go with a minor in cs, i went in not realizing just how much and how freaking hard the math was going to be. fortunately, the uni had a way out for guys like me, the difference between a cs minor and major is the math component.

i did get a kick out of assembly though and the lower level electronics classes but, yeah, many socially awkward moments with very smart kids.

lol, one, a cs class, the projects were always group projects and so were more difficult, groups had 1 smart person, 1 dumb person and a few in the middle. the smart one in my group emailed the group several hours after receiving the 2 week project to tell us all he's finished the entire project and submitted it for the team!
