Pretty much. That’s how most of the engineers I knew were when I was engineering. A good portion of them change degrees even when they had a 4.0 in highschool.

Bro same. Just shy of the 4.0 in hs, but the point stands. Engineering sure ain’t easy. I think mostly there just isn’t enough time in the day/week/month/year to learn it all when you have a full course load.

Well technically it’s illegal for academic probation department to hold your degree. But the more you self isolate then better you get your gpa back up

The students that has so much passion and potential. It’s hard to put them on academic probation. But for a person who works in the department. We gotta follow by the rules.
