Last year of cegep... don't know what is the American equivalent, but i would assume its college. anyway, thats where we go after high school and before university.

Initiation at programming
Electricity and Magnetism
Organic chemistry
Linear algebra and vectorial geometry (matrices)

I've already done all my regular classes since I,ve started the natural science program one year after I started college. Next year, if I'm lucky, I'm gonna attempt a bachelor in physics. I've got this displeasing feeling that I'm putting the bar way too damn High, but eh... I better try and fail than not try at all... and became a janitor.

From what my friend says cegep is more of a 2 year technical degree program (An associates degree here), and university is a normal 4 year college with bachelors degrees.

Although americans can go straight from HS to college and I know that depending on the area you must go to cegep before you go to university or I believe you can take advanced classes in highschool during the summer to skip cegep.

I'm taking the class of hard knocks in a poor man's life.

The class is cheap, but the lessons are costly.

A lot of it is common sense for people like you and me, but for a lot of people, effectively communicating technical data is not intuitive. When I took Technical Writing/Technical Presentations, I enjoyed them since I got to do my research projects on physics topics, so I stayed interested in the courses. The nice thing for you is that you seem to have lots of interests so finding a good topic to research shouldn't be hard.

Major: Computer/Electrical Engineering

Electronics I
Control Systems I
Circuits and Signals III
Microprocessors Lab
Physics II Lab (Electromagnetics)
Professional Ethics
Technical Writing
Science Fiction (LIT elective)

20 hours isn't as bad as I'd thought it'd be haha.
