How can students entering a rigorous engineering program—like myself, Siebren , a transfer student from Lincoln Tech with a trade background in Automotive Technology and an associate’s degree in Management (3.8 GPA, Honor Society President)—effectively integrate hands-on technical skills, academic excellence, leadership experience, and personal discipline to thrive in a dual-degree engineering program at Morehouse and Georgia Tech, while also preparing to become a well-rounded mechanical engineer in a rapidly evolving global industry?

Any advice you guys have feel free to share and feel free to ask any questions you all have I'm willing to help any and everyone.
