Do I have to be good at drawing in engineering?

Dear Erika,

Engineering can be hard, but not usually because of any drawing ability.  You may need to sketch out ideas sometimes, but usually that just requires you to be able to draw squares and circles and lines...nothing too complicated.  You may take a drafting course that will teach you to specify what an object should look like, but usually this drawing is done via special software, and it does not require an artist's touch.  You are right that just loving math isn't enough to get through engineering though.  You should also love discovering, creating new things, and solving problems and puzzles.  After all, that is what engineers are best at.  It will also require some determination, but the reward is well-worth the effort.  Good luck!
