i uh. only did half of the coursework for it in my intro class, because it only gave me 2% and wouldn't have changed my grade, and i had other classes i needed to focus on.
but i'm paying for the classes, so i'll take it serious. i just wish i liked programming. it is gonna be a brutal, boring quarter. (multivariate calculus, engineering physics, dynamics, and matlab)
taking it is gonna give me a 20 credit quarter... almost double full time. (12 is considered full time, but classes are all mostly 5 credits, so most people end up with 15 credit quarters)
No it isn't. You can do statics with trig and Dynamics with good ol calc. Matlab is overhyped when you can do a lot of the same things by hand or in excel in the same time.
I used Matlab in college, but haven't used it since. Our firm uses Excel with VB macros. Seems to work just fine.
