What is your major and how many hours are you taking? What about a job?

I'm just wondering if I'm in over my head or not.

I'm in mechanical engineering with 17 hours and I work 10 hours during the week, leaving the weekends open for other stuff. I don't think I'm gonna make it :hsdance:

[Andrew Bohan]

i'm taking 16 units this quarter and 35 hours of work.
nope, not gonna make it hehe.

[BSeay]

I'm a psychology major with 12 credit hours and i dont have a job yet, but i'm looking into 15-20 hours a week...

Which year ME are you? because i have a couple friend here that are ME's and dont work because the load is crutial.... if you're in your third year good luck because it's the hardest from what i'm told...

[Jeff240sx]

I'm taking 15 hours of pre-med, 3rd year, and no job. The occasional website design.

[AKADriver]

When I was in college, my first two years, I had your schedule exactly - 17 hours of class (electrical engineering) and 10 hours of work. It was great. Of course, I should add that my 10 hours of work was MOSTLY supervising computer labs, so I often got my work done at work. Some days I had to actually work, though.

[thelinja]

16hrs, civil engineering

Crimianlistics?

Crimnalistics,

www.dictionary.com

Use it without fear.

[Stock-S13]

www.dictionary.com

Use it without fear.


I smiled when i saw this...

uhh perhaps i'll show you some links aswell..


www.cacnews.org
www.firearmsid.com/new_index.htm
http://www.afte.org/cgi-bin/iB3Public/ikonboard.cgi

In lamens terms, it is the scientfic process of allocating answers for cause of death, using (qoute the buzz word) Forensics.

If you notice a pattern in the last two links, you will notice they are Fire arm's ID. Which just happends to be my Major, in either case thier is no need to look up the term. But i do believe the term refers to Litigating, which is an underrated/overseen attribute of what will be my profession. A Crimnalist, look that word up.. Or ask me questions, whatever..

Edit; saw what the first link was, it was pretty much a hack.. This one is better..

[FastBack 240]
