I love math, so the calc and diff eq were fun, but physics sucked so much, they got into electron tunneling, relativity, just weird advanced physics which I don't care about much, and not relevant to the degree.

If you want to design engines and work for an automotive company, get on a formula 1 team if they have one where you go. It'll take a lot of free time, but my friend is the head engine guy at ISU and he talks to all these design guys from Honda, etc at every meet. Pretty good 'in' if you ask me.

Yea for sure. But like I said, doing ME I will more than likely need another 4 (possibly 5) years before I graduate. This is something I don't think I could really afford here at ISU. While I know it's a great school especially when it comes to the engineering programs, I think a school like ndsu would fit my budget a little better. I also know a number of people that go to school there. I guess what I'm asking is are there any other schools in mn that would be better to attend for a ME degree than ndsu? Also, for all you ME's out there, what are you currently doing?
