Look Ma! I'ma Headin To College!

Post by McVibe »

Well Well Well It seems I'm going to college soon. I was just accepted to the University of Kentucky and will start attending in August of this year. I can't wait to go! Let me know if there are any Vibers around that area Also I may be able to attend some rallys now that I'm a little closer to Michigan. BTW I'm majoring in Computer Engineering :-)

Yea I'm still deciding 100% if I want to tackle an engineering degree or not. My brother down at Duke is doing Bio-med engineering and he says any engineering degree is a lot of work. So I may down-size to Computer Science just to be on the safe side.

Congratulations! Have fun at UK...go to a basketball game for me and yell really loud. UK was the other school I applied to for grad school, but they didn't give me as much $$$ as Miami so here I am. Then again that might be a good thing because I probably would have lived in Rupp Arena during basketball season...LOL.

with engineering, my cousin said to go to a 2yr tech school and get all the hard classes done. like physics, calc, chem, bio. and then transfer to a 4yr univ to finish your degree. I wish i took his advice as i really like ECE now, the non major classes suck and weed people out so i hated it before i even got to the engineering part.... but after a couple years i finally figured out you have to buckle down or get your (removed) kicked. all i can say is do what you like, but if its engineering do your hw early!!
