<p>Thanks but I really just posted the info to underscore that many kids who initially do not get into engineering end up doing quite well. That the University Studies path is not that uncommon (and in most cases much better than getting denied outright from VT and then having to try to transfer in to VT later). Some kids unfortunately get into engineering initially and then have problems doing well. So, getting into engineering from the outset is not a guarantee of success. Anybody in engineering(regardless of the path taken to get there) is going to have to resolve to do well, study hard and ask for help if needed(at Math Emporium, go to office hours of professors and TA’s, study groups, etc). Good luck to all and I will be remembering Virginia Tech tomorrow on the anniversary of such tragedy for the campus. Virginia Tech has shown great resilience.</p>
