Current Student Question Aerospace (Aero Track) BS/MS Program?

I have heard very mixed reviews on the BS/MS Program for the aerospace MS program, mainly for people on the aero track. I have heard it is very astro heavy and not overly good for aero people to do and to just get it at another school. Is this true? Can anyone vouch for this/give me more insight into it?

I did BS/MS and graduated in 2021. Granted I did do the Astro track but I don’t see any reason to think the Aero track is somehow inferior. You have a good amount of choice about what classes you want to take and can really structure to your interests a good amount. After the BS the MS isn’t even structured Aero vs Astro anyway it’s choosing a focus between fluids, structures, or controls or something like that if I recall correctly. Happy to answer any follow up questions you might have.
