Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I am concerned about his career choice. I went to a private engineering college in NY. I was very immature (16), but was able to slide through.
We started with an entering class of 800 and graduated 125. We lost half the class the first year. These students did not have a grasp of the basics and could not handle the lab work.
Some of the older students picked on me because I was so young, but my
schadenfreude was to see them flunk out while I went forward.
I lived at home and commuted to school. My parents paid for school when it was a lot less expensive than now. When I matured I thanked them for the opportunity and for putting up with my poor performance in school.
