You should be able to read, write, and change code. There won't be any definitions.

Rohr added the "What is a computer?" question for his students when I took it.

For those of you admitted as a transfer student into engineering, what topics did you choose to write about for the "describe a personal quality, talent, accomplishment, contribution or experience" part of the personal statement?

I already wrote a draft, but one of my readers said it sounded boring and that I should talk more about myself rather than academic experiences. I thought it was good since I make a good reflection on the experience. What do you guys think?

You were lucky enough that they were looking for football players when you applied.

Would potential employers favor the Computer Engineering major over the Computer science and Engineering major just because of the degree name? I checked the two and there are only about 4-5 differences in the required courses.
