My parents made me major in engineering despite my apathy for the subject, and everyone keeps telling me it is impossible to get a high GPA if I dislike it and should talk to my parents about switching. I have tried many times to convince my parents to allow me to switch, but it always just ends in yelling and occasionally tears, which I just cannot deal with anymore. I know my parents, and the only way I will be able to switch out of engineering is if I switch to something like pre-med, which is even worse in my opinion. I managed to pull a 4.0 first semester, but my classes were pretty basic, and people keep telling me that I will burn out or lose my motivation. I'm worried about this because my plan is to go to law school once this is over, and I need a 3.7+ GPA to get into a top law school. If anyone who was forced to study engineering but still got a high GPA could tell me how they pushed through or just has any advice, it would be very appreciated. Thank you.
