Thanks, I enjoyed Physics including Statics and dynamics in college the first time, and statistics was mostly interesting, and I have been through Engineering Calc 1, 2, 3, and Diff Equ. Math and Physics are familiar and interesting to me. THat's why I am gravitating towards ME, it seemed Physics heavy.

The first time I was young and didn't really know what I wanted to do, so I didn't apply myself. This time I plan on actually learning the stuff instead o just getting by. My wife and both stepkids are in College, and after working with them for the last couple of years, tutoring them through Math and some of the sciences my love of learning has been rekindled. At 18 away from home for the first time surrounded by 30,000 other college students there are many, many more interesting things than studying. This time I don't have the same kind of distractions.

I'm confident that I can Ace most of my classes this time maybe with the occasional B.

One other question, how much does the college that you get your degree from matter. I'm in Houston. The easiest 4 year for me to transfer to is the University of Houston which is a state school, then there is Rice U which is a spendy private school, and then there is Texas A&M which is more difficult because it's not really quite local to Houston.

Thanks again.
