I haven't been around much - busy with school, family, and my fledgling business.
Right now I'm taking Introduction to Engineering, Composition, History, Chemistry, and College Algebra.
The Introduction to Engineering, Composition, and History classes really assign a whole lot of homework. In those classes I probably spend 3+ hours at home for every hour in class, just doing homework. The Chemistry doesn't have much homework; it's all in-class, and the Algebra doesn't assign much H/W either. The only time I have to open my algebra book is if I didn't get what the professor said in class.
I'm wondering, once I get out of these "core classes" and into real engineering coursework, will my school workload increase or decrease? Is there lots of homework for things such as Circuit Analysis, Digital Logic Design, Applied EM Waves, Engineering Statistics, etc? Will it be like the math classes, where if you get it you get it and if you don't you study, or will there be homework assignments on top of study, whether you get it or not?
