How to Prepare for your 1st Year of Engineering | Back-to-School Guide

For engineering students or even STEM students, I created this video as a guide with everything you need going into engineering. There’s definitely a lot of misconceptions about engineering that I hope this video clears up. I also tend to get a lot of questions about what’s the laptop for engineering students, so I talk about that in this video. Timestamps are as follows:

    2:22 just wanted to get this warning out there, if you planning to use the new apple m1 stuff, such as the new macbook air, you CAN'T use bootcamp anymore because apple apparently decide to put their own stuff in it, which is not what other windows laptop expecting, however, it can be change over time and the development of new version of bootcamp, while waiting for that you can still use virtual machine, but with many limitations ofc, one of the biggest is the performance, I probably can make longass explanation about it, but I'll try to simplify it a bit for the sake of simplicity. Let's imagine you use a software that made for os A on platform 1, but you have os B on platform 2, so you need to put the os A on a wrapper or container like a jar (in this case is virtualization). But remember, you virtualize os A on a os B on a platform 2, so now you need to translate the code made for platform 1 so platform 2 can understand it. After reading it all back, I think it'll be better if I explain it like what it is without any oversimplification. But anyway, is there are any alternative? Yes of course! First, you can use vps (basically just virtualization, but instead of doing it on your mac on a m1 arm platform, vps is a big blob of cloud that live somewhere with (mostly) x86 cpu which is what most of windows machine use) like I did, however, it's quiet expensive for my liking. I use contabo vps with 6vCPU and 16gigs of ram and with no gpu (so you can't do advance simulation, you can do it with AWS, alibaba, or azure if you want), which cost me about $40 for the first month and around $33 for the rest. The down side with vps is, it is virtualization, so you can't use other virtualization such as Android emu on Android studio to test your app or even wsl, but since you use mac, you probably can still use those on you mac. Second, buy older model of mac, this is the easiest way I think. Third, why don't you just.., you know, use windows laptop, this would be cheaper than the other options. Fourth, I haven't find one, so you can stick to vm until there are any other way out. Cmiiw Thanks a lot for reading btw.

    On the laptop, if you can't afford one you can get through the degree without it, assuming your university / college supplies computer labs. Nothing wrong with paper notes, just an issue when it comes to reports, CAD, coding etc. Also don't organise your workload by time i.e 'I am going to do 2 hours of study for statics today' because you will not know how much work that equates to, I found it better to divide my work into measurable success such as 15 pages of a textbook or 10 questions etc, added bonus is satisfaction.

    As long as you’re decent student overall (75th percentile), you have good chances of getting into an engineering program at your state school. I wouldn’t be too stressed about going to the most prestigious schools because you can get a good education at so many other places. But if you want to improve your chances of getting accepted you should focus on sat/act scores, extracurriculars, course rigor, gpa, and essays. Extracurriculars are extremely important. They set you apart from all the other people applying. I think they might even be more important than your gpa and test scores when it comes to more prestigious schools. Assuming youre doing decent academically, this should be what you focus on the most. I’d recommend you look into PSEO or AP classes. They look better on an application and prepare you for college courses. Good luck on your chemistry class!

    i wish my professors would explain things in a way that made more sense to me or made it easier to tie big ideas together. sometimes they relate unrelated topics to the material, which is not helpful for me. or they use notation that ive never seen before in prior classes with similar ideas. or they rush all the slides at you so theres barely any time to write anything down and then not post them until its the end of the semester. or they dont grade stuff timely and or they dont give good feedback or barely any at all.

    Here's my advice, seek imbalance. Ditch hanging out, delete all the games off your phone, give your gaming systems away and don't even keep a TV in your apartment/dorm. Wake up at 4, workout for 30 minutes to an hour, then start studying. Eat breakfast. Study. Go to class. Study. Go to class. Study. Eat a small lunch. Study. Study. Study. Go to sleep around 9:30-10pm. Repeat. This for the 2 year Bachelor's warriors. We take 6-8 classes. We're there in the summer, A and B sessions. Now of course you're gonna have clubs, organizations, mabey even sports, dating, friends....life....but those are not daily obligations. Set boundaries. You want to make sure 80% of your time is actually on studying and comprehending the curriculum. 20% for other obligations. #80/20 #SUMMA

    doesn't zlib have pirated books in it? I really liked the video, it just bothers me sometimes to think that there is a problem with using these resources. I downloaded a drawing book from there (zlib specifically) and found out that the book was copyrighted and kindle version costed like 23 USD, unfortunately that specific book is just scattered around the internet in general, you can just type the name and multiple resources offer it for free. I'm not sure about these stuff anymore, sometimes it seems like the copyright holders gave up and don't really care if anyone uses the product for free or not and do something like what non-profit web-sites do, but instead of donating you actually buy the product.

    Yes!! You absolutely need a laptop. Technically, if you have to between them, then laptop is more important. However, ideally, it’s nice to have both.

    Yo I’m going to western. Been watching the vids. Helped a lot but should I go into electrical or mechanical. I’m going to Western Uni by the way, and thinking of doing Ivey. I don’t have much preference but like idk man, I don’t know what kind I want to be, if at all be an engineer.

    That’s a tough decision. I don’t know u well enough to be able to recommend either mechanical or electrical. Do u see urself designing the enclosure of an iPhone or the PCB inside the iPhone? Based on that, u would have a better idea and to be honest u can’t go wrong with either. I’m terms of whether or not engineering is right for you, u just have to try it out (through clubs, design teams, coursework, etc.) to find it out. Is there else that u think u would like?

    @@TamerShaheen well I like both equally. But my dads an electrical engineer and he says it’s the “best” one in terms of work life and pay. The reason I’m leaning a bit towards electrical cause i feel like I won’t like auto cad but then isn’t electrical engineering a lot harder in uni.

    If you’re asking about the difference between Mechanical and CS and which is better, it’s hard to say cuz it depends on what u enjoy. There’s nothing negative about mechanical, however CS and programming tends to have more jobs available and they can pay more sometimes too...especially if u work in the Bay Area. But, if u don’t like coding, then u shouldn’t get into it just for the money
