I'm going to be a political communication major at The George Washington University in the fall. You can't get much farther from engineering than that.
I've been around FIRST for nine years, been with my team for four, and captained the team for two. But engineering just wasn't for me.
However, FIRST has given me more experience than anything else I ever could have done (and it has its own politics
). And I think that GW noticed me because of my background in "technical" extra-curriculars. A friend of mine knows kids with better academics than me that have not gotten into poli-comm at GW.
Or I'm crazy. But that's my input.
