Hi Everyone,
I'm currently a high school senior applying to college as a civil engineering major. I'm also enrolled in my first physics class (honors). It sucks. I've bombed the first few quizzes on kinematics, and I've just found everything to be so confusing in general. It's weird because I did so well in calculus and chem, so math and science is not an issue for me overall. So I'm not sure if physics just hasn't clicked yet, or if all hope is lost and I should just abandon civil engineering altogether. The only concept I understand pretty well is vectors, since I've always had a knack for trig. I'm hoping that since vectors and trig are so important in statics, which is important in civil engineering, then maybe there's still some hope left and I'll be able to push through. I should also note that I have a passion for buildings, bridges, roads, etc so I'm really not interested in chemical, industrial, computer, or any other engineering disciplines. Thoughts?
