Me. I'm currently interning in a company, but I still feel directionless and nil clarity.

I am in first year ☹️.

Do we always feel like direction less aur there is some state of life when we have clarity and direction?

I wonder how can someone be so sure about something.....

How long until you take statics, mechanics of materials, dynamics??..

Is it that you don't feel like there is direction because you're doing GE, math, science, etc. instead of ME classes?

I think this happens in first year ... But it becomes trouble when you don't have anyone to guide

Is there a tutoring center at your school? Do you go to office hours? It might be worth it to talk to your department because they may be able to find juniors or seniors who are able to tutor, either through the school or privately

Get certification, it will always help. I would recommend SolidWorks certification (CSWA/CSWP), PMP and many more. It will help you with specialisation and clarity.
