I'm really seriously giving thought to just working a temp job for 4 months and going to grad school.... I don't have a high enough GPA right now to be considered for the jobs I want even though I'm just as capable of doing them as anyone else applying for them because the first semester I was here I had a really rough time ... But, if I go to grad school, I bet that would improve my chances of getting on with a company I wanna get on with. Case in point, I didn't spend 5 years of my life working for this degree to work the SAME job I got offered 7 years ago right after I graduated highschool.....quite literally.....heh

The only issue is that your GPA may hold you back from grad school as well. I don't know what your GPA is, but if it's low you'd better score damn well on the GRE if you want to be considered for grad school. And go somewhere other than Tech if you can. TTU may have a good undergraduate ME program, but the grad program is severely lacking. That having been said, the math portion of the GRE (the part that really matters for us) is ridiculously easy. It was a cake walk to score the 790 on it that I did. This post has been edited by Spectatrix: Oct 14 2006, 01:18 PM -------------------- |

TTU may have a good undergraduate ME program, but the grad program is severely lacking. My first semester here is debilitating, most grad schools I've looked at (not TTU ME at all, I'm gonna switch over to PE if I do this) say they consider mainly your grades on your last 30 hours of coursework, in which case i'm in like flynn ... I've done pretty well the last year with one exception (french class  ) , it's just the first semester I was here especially really killed my cum. GPA I am also pretty well gonna go back to the University of Wyoming if I go to grad school to their PE department because it's new and they are looking for people to build the program so it'll probably be easier there than somewhere else maybe.....heh It's just that paying for it is gonna be a bitch
