Hello all,
I am currently taking alot of college level math courses (as a mature student) and would like to maybe pursue and Electrical Engineering degree. I've taken Cal 1, Cal 2, and am now taking Cal 3. I find the subject matter very interesting, challenging, etc... and have gotten "A's" so far.
My question is this. Although I understand the subject matter, I don't feel like I"m going to retain alot of it when I'm done with the subject. I mean even though I'm passing there's still alot I don't completely understand. When you become an engineer how important is it that your retain the exact lessons learned here? Or is it more important to be able to learn the process beyond the lesson than the lesson itself? On the job do any of your actually use integration to solve a field problem?
Any insight on what to expect would be appreciated. Thanks
