Should test be altered to fit each student and challenge him or herself.

Every student is given the same test. Each student learns and struggles differently compared to his or her peers. My opinion, rather than creating a set level which every student must work on, creating a level for each student will reduce stress on the student to compete with other students....

Is it possible to go to school full-time for a STEM-related field and work two part time jobs?

I've heard stories of super-human effort which seem nearly impossible to do, not because of lack of energy, but due to lack of time. How do some people manage to do all of that and still have time for a breather? #stem #part-time #college #academic-advising

Do all Engineering fields require 4 or 5 years of college?

Some colleges we've visited have leaned more towards 5 years, suggesting first year is when you really are deciding on a Major or considering changing course. Has that been anyone's experience? #engineering
