>>13279511It is a 5 if you want to b a generic engineer, even in aerospace.
It is an 8.5 or 9 if you want to get into stuff like nonlinear mechanics of materials, but only at first! Then it is easy! I think engineering is taught wrong. You should START with a math and CS background, THEN you should pursue introductory engineering and physics courses. You should take maybe 1 or 2 courses o math semester for a few years until you feel comfy, then do the rest.
The best thing is to work out of high school and save 100k for long-term crypto investments. Then, start college at age 20, but take it easy, part-time and focus on math. Then, entire intro engineering courses can be digested in days or a few weeks (except a few where part of the unsaid intent is to program your brain with the thermo tables for water a-la multiplication tables in elementary school, not that you'll necessarily reference water it is just useful).
At some point, you're 26 wih a degree and "no experience," but who cares because this way you have the math, cs and incidentally Linux/lisp skills to do easily what generics rely on software to do for them.
