Hi I went to BU a while back for engineering. In response to TheDow and other engineering students, I highly recommend engineering floors or engineering house. Your fr/soph courses are going to be, for the most part, with other engineering students. Being in that environment is tremendously beneficial because one person will go to the empty lounge to start say, the MA124 problem set, and within a few minutes half the floor will be crammed in there working on it, and you’ll get it done in half the time with a third of the confusion. Having camaraderie available to help you on problem sets in your residence every night at 11PM is infinitely more helpful than a tutoring appointment next Thursday at 9AM 3 T stops away during a snowstorm. Also, since you are living among individuals that are engaging in one of the harder programs at the university, being in such proximity to high performance individuals also allows much more opportunity to observe and learn better study skills as well.
