Well, this is my last year, and i'll have to chose the subject i'll take in university. Since the SAT equivalent is divided in here, i already have 2/3 of my main score to analize where and what i can take. I'm applying to Biomedical Engineering, as i'm completely fascinated by "medicine without surgeries", because although i love such subject, i'm haemophobic and it wouldn't work in a surgery or a autopsy, but there's something in there that bothers me.
There's the fact you have to get past the electronic engineering part, since you must acquire knowledge on such things, and of course, get through one and half a year of calculus.
I'm a good student in the subjects i'd need in there, i have good scores, but not the "perfect scores" that are "needed", like some people say.
I have no problem in studying too much until i learn something, and i try to do my best, but it's not like i always have an A score.
What i'm trying to ask is, is it really needed to be that good? Because, it's being a little hard to me to think on such possibility, with everyone saying things like "You must love these subjects, and be just purely excellent to handle the course until it's end, otherwise, you'll get crazy at some point and will quit".
Is it that hard? I know i can't really compare the calculus, physics and chemistry i'm taking in my last year, but is it that ridiculously hard and different?
Because, i'm thinking a lot about which course i would take, i don't want to get into an university and eventually quit wasting the years i've spent in there, because i only give up of something when i can't really stand it, i don't think about studying what i like, because that's a little utopic.
Well, i'm asking for any engineering students because almost every engineering course has these subjects in it. So, is it really that dam hard, or it's more like a course that requires you to constantly study, but that you don't really need to be "da bomb" in all those subjects?
Thanks anyways
