Going off-topic here, but you'd better try to learn to spell. There's a lot more to engineering than putting things together. You have to sell your designs - either literally to customers or figuratively to bosses, clients, coworkers, etc. Since you can't speak to them all individually, the only method is a good technical report on your product and process. Good writing skills are a must.

Thank you for the advice. Writing is not my problem per-say, it's just the spelling part. I think I speak quite eloquently when I need to and my grammar isn't too bad. I'll just have to make sure that I use spell check ;)
