A mathematics barrier

While being good in mathematics can make engineering courses seem easier, the more important qualities are patience and problem solving skills. When looking at a difficult problem (math or otherwise), do you get frustrated and give up easily, or do you do whatever you need to do to figure it out?

Do you like challenges and figuring things out?

If so, then I would say GO FOR IT! Being good in math just shows that your brain can process numbers and concepts easily, it doesn’t mean that you are a good engineer. Just like being an engineer doesn’t mean that math comes easily.
