I just claimed my discount, thank you🫂❤️ I would like to encourage everyone who really wants to improve their marks and skill to sign up for it, it is as little as R80.🫡🔥❤️
I’m very glad to see your TH-cam channel still here!! Loved watching your transcript videos about Boston University and Tsinghua University, and this advice means a lot for someone like myself. I’m a Freshman undergrad Student at RPI right now studying my BS for Civil Engineering. I’d like to have a dual concentration with Structural and Geotechnical Engineering so I can work in Construction Engineering after graduating. My Intro to Engineering Analysis class (first semester of Statics) has been hard, but I’ve been understanding it better and think I’ll finish in the class with a B+ or A-. I should end up with a 3.5+ gpa my first semester, and want to do everything in my power to maintain a 3.5+ so I can get into Grad school for my masters in engineering for Civil Engineering. The two programs I want to do my MEng for Civil Engineering are MIT (Structural Design Track) and RPI (Structural Engineering most likely) as of now. The RPI masters program seems like it would be a nice transition for me from undergrad to grad Civil Engineering, and it’d probably be my cheapest option to get my MEng. I also would love to go to MIT for grad school, and it’d be cool to Network and connect with people outside of the RPI community. My question for you is what grad school option would be better for me, and how could I prepare myself to get into MIT? Your someone who made that transition from a great university in United States for Engineering (BU) to one of the worlds best facilities in China via Tsinghua University. How could I do something like that sir? Thank you. PS: I plan on doing research with the transportation department next semester and will likely work for the NYS DOT as a transportation inspector near where I live for an internship this upcoming summer.
Hello I am going to start my undergrad on my bachelor's on (pre) mechanical engineering this fall and am very confused about the courses to take and there are all these different terms like perquisites and electives and additional stuff which is very confusing. So I wanted to know if you could tell me which courses are useful but not that difficult for my first year in Western
Well, I dont know for who you are doing this video, maybe for you, US residents, but where I live and study, which is in the Europe, Czech republic, TU Liberec, I am in the first year of mechanical bachelors programm, and so far, not only are the topics easier than expected so far (although I feel like that it wont be the case in the next semester), but also as you are recommending laptops and calculators, that is nice and all, but actually, I can manage more than great with a classic pen, pencil and excersise book, but also, we are not recommended not to use calculators during the classes and during tests, they are actually forbidden to use. Dont get me wrong- I feel that this can help somebody, but for me as an european, this doesnt make sense. And you may say- well, when you are forbidden to use calculators, the university must be pretty bad, etc..., but actually, it had shown us that , when even if we have quite complex equation, as long as there are small or rational numbers, you really dont need it. Ofcourse, I wont be afraid to use it later on if really needed, but I feel like It helps me get more confident with using my knowledge and managing skills. And with tha laptop- yeah, there were times I could use it to do some work in the dorms, but for all the subjects where we need it, we can do it in the well equiped classrooms, and what I dont have time for, I can do at home, saving quite a nice amount of cash. And also, I am certain I wouldnt be able to keep up the writing pace on keyboard rather than with pen. It is true that usually, those classmates draw it with pen on those displays, especially in math, where you need a lot of symbols you dont have on keyboard, but then it is just digital paper, so why would I need it? Really feels like this whole video is targeted at US students honestly...
It is based for US residents; I believe most of his audience is US residents. I'm a US student and my exams are all either no calculator, theoretical, and symbolic or completely impossible without a calculator but real-world-based. I like this approach more since in the real world, I wouldn't be using a basic TI calculator, I would use desmos or wolframalpha. I also have to own a laptop for school since we have various engineering software classes.
I wouldn’t generalize that for Europe. Im studying ME in TU Munich and laptop (and/or iPad) is a must. Especially for CAD and Matlab. Yes, calcs aren’t allowed in the initial semesters of the course, but that is to make sure you learn the actual concept. Tech is definitely a big part of it. Our final math exam in the first semester is also 10% based on our Matlab skills which we are tested on. So yeah, can you survive on pen and paper? Maybe. Will you thrive? Definitely not. There is too much content and not enough space. Ebooks are a must, unless you want to carry 8-9 1000 page books for your 8 courses in the first semester lmao

Can u pls make video for last sem prep and interview
It would be really great help
Thanks for giving these important tips about mechanical engineering students.

@@nishantkaji465 yeah, makes sense then 👍

Thanks for the video, the sound for the items popping onto the screen is a little loud maybe adjust that for next time :)
It helps me a lot and my horizons Thanks to you =))
Pray for me.Today is my first day as an international student 🎉
God bless you 🙏🏾 ❤️.
Bro we use the same calculator in high school in Germany here
We were using the TI-83/84 since the early 2000's. I thought we'd have moved on to something newer by now, but I guess not 😂
Followed instructions yet still failing, what now
I will never give up
nice topic
Hello man should i go for cs or Mechanical engineering? I am lil bit confused. Is Mechanical eng. lot harder than cs
Their difficulty varies a lot based on how much you actually like the subject. I like Mech.E but despise CS so I would find CS much more difficult.
@@nishantkaji465can I do mechanical engineering if I suck at hands on Work?
great vid
It is for diploma in mechanical engineering student?
Help me please is mechanical engineering better than ELECTRICRICAL ENGINEERING
Well it completely depends on you. Lemme ask you a question. Do you like building stuff or you like playing with circuits
