Anyone? As I posted above, I'm a college freshman and was heavily involved with a team this year. It was somewhat difficult at times, but I don't regret it at all.
I don't think doing FIRST in college is reliving high school. FIRST is a model of the real world, and even professional engineers gain things from the program.
