Lemme tell you this: 1) nobody is gonna hold your hand anymore and Guide you thru assignments and stuff. 2) manage time effectively or else it’s over. 3) study 4)study 5) socialise. You’ll need these friends later for group project 2yrs down the line. 6) ask questions
I'm a hospital pharmacist working graveyard shifts, so I take my engineering classes in the afternoon. I'm in my 3rd year in BS in Electronics Engineering. (I'm 26) 1. Study three topics in advance and try to find the hardest question possible for those topics and study how they are solved. If you can answer those, then whatever the professor will give, will be easy. 2. Get enough amount of sleep no matter what. It's gonna be worthless if you will grow a tumor getting 4.0 gpa in an engineering major. 3. After you pass the subject, always review it from time to time maybe an hour or two in a day off / weekend so that you won't forget it. 4. Take your minor classes in Summer and try to learn the next major subject in advance through other platforms (youtube). Why I still went to school after becoming a pharmacist ( I did pharmacy for the $$$ and im doing engineering for the passion).
I remember my first year of Engineering! It was really exciting but also stressful and scary at times. These tips Tamer has shared would have definitely helped me! Im planning to also make a similar video on my channel. Thanks for the inspiration Tamer and a quality video as always :)
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.
Hi Tamer ,I am watching your videos since long ago.I am studying Manufacturing Science and Engineering in COEP Tech. Your content is just mind boggling and seems like real life world . I think you should make tutorial videos on skills required for mech people like AutoCad , Solid works,… Genuinely your content have no replacement 🔩⚙️🛠 - Love from India 🇮🇳♥️
@@mannz6411 it's tough but if you make a nice group of friends with the same degree it'll make it easier also make a list of all of the assignments you have and do them accordingly and don't push everything off till last minute. Try to complete assignments earlier so you can go to your professor to help look over them so it looks proper. Also, finish your assignments before going out, it's okay to stay a few nights in to crank out your assignments. as well as try to do every extra credit assignment like do please cuz sometimes it can come in clutch. Also, don't be scared to ask questions in class and if you do you can also ask them during office hours. I really recommend using office hours they can be really helpful and you're able to get the proper help instead of trying to find it on the internet and it may end up being wrong even when using AI bots. Also if your school provides tutoring take full advantage of it. Also, try to become friends with upperclassmen since they can guide you to the right path. Lastly, you will lose sleep and might think you're not enough but you are amazing times will be tough but I believe in you and that you can get through it. It's going to be hard to trust but it'll all be worth it in the end.
I'm getting the Asus Zen book. it's about 1500. Has fast storage - a gaming graphics card - durable - MOST important TOUCH SCREEN if you haven't used a touch screen for math or physics you missing out it's so smooth. (doesn't come with pen $60) also Asus has amazing customer support
hey! if you don't mind sharing, how's the laptop so far, I'm thinking about buying a laptop that lasts all my engineering degree, is the Asus zen book good? I was in between Lenovo LOQ and Lenovo legion 7i
My big problem is knowing when and where to plug in different equations. I’ve always been really good at math, but physics has been kicking my butt this year. I really want to be an engineer but struggling so much in physics is making me a little nervous
@hchickenz1138 be fr bro as a former Mechanical Engineering student I can 100% confirm that he will NOT be alright if he keeps struggling in physics like that
Thank you so much Tamer, I've regularly been watching most of your videos and am very grateful for your advice! If you have not done so already could you revisit typical high-school gr. 11 & gr. 12 that would get you admission at different engineering programs such as Waterloo? I'm afraid my grade 11 chemistry has plunged to a depth unreachable by mankind, I am a bit worried.
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!
im going in for chemical engineering this year and I am so nervous. I understand it's not the same as high school and I guess it's more of the fear of the unknown
all I wanna know is your experience before getting there, stuff like how much math, physics, chemistry you have learnt, also coding skills, editing skills, etc
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.
Transferring from community to UTA for Computer Science and Engineering. Just wanted to point out B-Ok and Z-Library got seized and are no longer viable options.
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
A laptop with an integrated graphics card should be fine. Most of the work we do is opening pdf files or using word or excel tbh. You can find urself using more advanced engineering software too, but it’s not as much as u might think.
Should i get dell g15(i5 and rtx 3050) because it falls in my budget now I am an ece atudent and will be using it for designing circuits and VLSI tech with playing nfs payback or heat for casual I am concerned with its battery life I need 4 hrs minimum Should i go for this
Do I really need a laptop for first' semister of Engeneearing? Or Just fine without it.🙄 What's should be my first preffernce for college a smartphone or a good laptop? While choosing between them🙄 Do you suggest me pls 🙏
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.
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.
Well if it’s something you will enjoy doing, then it’s not too late to start pursuing it. One of my classmates in engineering started when he was like 25 and graduated at 29 and is now working as an engineer.
Mechanical engineering and computer science double major might be tough. It’s definitely doable, but idk if u will have enough time for a social life or to do anything haha 😅 If you’re interested in those two majors, a better major might be mechatronics engineering?
I think a laptop would be better than an iPad Pro for two reasons. First, the file management on a laptop is easier to use and more convenient. Second, some software that u may need to use during ur school will only be available on a laptop.
I used printer paper for homework that I stole from the school printer. One notebook per class. If your calculator requires a rechargeable battery to function, then it's a piece of garbage!
Seeking some study partners and mentors , hmu please. Haven’t signed up for any courses yet and new to the field. Wanting to build some bonds and get some guidance
Say goodbye to passing without studying...lol you think this is high-school where you study the day before, hahaha think again. This course doesn't care about your high school distinctions , it will have its way with you if you are not carefull.
Hi there I am from India Hi should I opt for mechanical engineering as their are mixed reviews 🤔 and mostly negative ones which is teasing Me to take future step I am getting it in their 2 college And cs and all their 3 but programming coding I don't think I will be able to perform all time efficiently And If everything goes well I may also go abroad (Germany, Canada) for masters Pls help out ☝☝
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
