@RTRVII Thanks for the info man, I really appreciate it. Good luck with your studies.

@UniverseOffspring (cont'd) Well you do need to have a good basis for mathematics.I wasn't the best at math when I started, but when you invest enough time in it from the start (they do explain most things again, but really quick) then you should be able to handle it, if you didn't have much trouble in highschool.
You don't have to be a math 'genius', of course , lot of them go study engineering, and it's handy, but a 'mediocre' mind with the right attitude has a really decent chance too.

@UniverseOffspring We are only allowed to use simple calculators like the type fx-92 (google it). They're simple in the meaning that they don't support graphical features.
Of course we use calculators all day, because you need them really badly for all the exercices. If you can do things like logarithms, square roots and complex exponentials by heart, then you're a genius :). So for short: we all use calculators, because not using it would be hugely inefficient...does that answer your question?

@RTRVII Does a person have to be pretty good at math, and do it all without the use of calculators? I usually do problems without a calculator, because I feel that if I don't- that I will not prevail. It's safe to assume that you and other engineers/engineer students, use calculators with your math right? Is it even heard of to you, of doing calculus without a calculator?

@tammaaaashee 10% Imagimanacion?

@RTRVII That's cool man, good luck.

@UniverseOffspring doing pretty fine i'm in my third year electromechanical engineering. Thanks for asking =)

@RTRVII How's it going with the studying man?

If your looking for an engineering job- go serious jobs dot com they PAY you to get hired so glad i found them.

I am an electrical power engineering graduated 1 year ago (from accredited college by ABET :) ). Electrical engineering (especially electrical power engineering) required a lot of math. I always describe EE by 60% of math + 30% of theories and concepts + 10% of imagination.
Unfortunately, you will not use all things that you learned in your job :(
@tabber87
That came out wrong. I'm not saying becoming a lawyer is not hard work but let's face it, some of the concepts that EE majors have to learn are more difficult than anything you'll encounter in law school.

I'm in electrical engineering. Calculus III is just an easy A+. If calculus is hard to you; don't major in EE.
