What where your experiences in engineering school? |

Regarding what? |
| Berni:
Mostly being thought overly theoretical things by professors that are not all that good at teaching and are outdated in there field by about 20 to 40 years. Among them there are some rare exceptions that are actually good at what they do. |

My college education came entirely out of my own pocket. So, being obsessed with technology and wanting to get my money's worth I took the hardest classes I could, never took a semester off, never dropped a class, and never even sold a book back. During that period I was taught numerous overly complicated things by professors that largely had industry experience. This experience left me with a truly gut-level understanding of how things work and the ability to immediately visualize potential solutions to problems upon inspection. And a personal observation: Truly gifted engineers are usually highly fluent in physics. Don't look for the Arduino/LED class. |
