Describe your college experience
I had a great transition to college. I made a lot of new friends and learned so much.
Tip for future students
Be prepared to take a lot of notes and study for exams. Unlike high school, exams make up a large portion of your grade so it's important to be prepared. Keep organized and don't miss any assignments and keep a schedule for your clubs and classes.
Favorite class
My favorite classes so far are Intro to Robotics (MFET 248) because we get to work with and program industrial robots, and Intro to Electrical Systems (ECET 224) because we get to build circuits and learn about electrical components.
Career goals
I hope to become a robotics engineer.
Ideal way to spend a free night
I enjoy hanging out with friends playing card games or chatting.
