Speaking of engineering - I have a rising high school senior nephew who thought he wanted to major in engineering. Smart parents signed him up for an engineering summer camp-type program at a major university. The kiddo is miserable. Not only is the camp “all work and no play” (a good indication of what the major would be) he’s also discovered that engineering isn’t what he thought it would be.
Good thing he discovered this now, and not as a miserable college freshman.
