Don’t let people scare you out of engineering, if you are above a reasonable threshold of intelligence the key in success in engineering is good organizational skills and hard work. i know several BMEs and none of them are going crazy competing against each other, none of them are killing themselves spending every minute studying, they, like most good engineering students, are bright people who understand when to put work ahead of other things.

for background most of the BMEs i know are from the honors physics class so they are probably in the upper quartile of their major on average. one thing engineers love to do more than engineering is ***** about work, i know because i am one of them. it is only as bad as you make it out to be, as long as you like your major it isn’t going to feel like an oppressive grind.
