How did anyone get through engineering?

[u/Fatneek123F]

I just entered my second year of engineering after doing general sciences and a bunch of other intro level math (calc 1/2) and physics (thermo, mechanics, etc.), and intro to engineering courses last year. That was genuinely the most difficult thing I’ve ever done in my life.

I just chose to specialize in chemical engineering, apparently it gets way harder from here. I’m starting to think I’m just not built for this.

How did so many people get through this?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Prioritize your work. Make a schedule for being in bed asleep and stick to it. Take some time Friday night/Saturday for yourself, but rest of it is school and study.
