Re: Why is it that not many girls are into robotics?

Well, actually most girls who I talk to robotics about think that it's cool that I'm on a team.... I think though that they think 'wow cool, but I could never do that'. Maybe also they're just plain uninterested! I never actually worked on our robot (thought I would've loved to). I went to the meetings more to learn some 3ds Max stuff. I went to the BAE regional, but wasn't really sure why since I didn't know most of the kids on the team, but it turned out to be awesome! It doesn't hurt that we won haha.. we have about 5 girls on the team, give or take a couple (not sure of the exact count).

Since I'm a senior and will be going to school in Florida for computer animation, I'm hoping to become a mentor eventually! I love FIRST.

P.S. I have a thing for nerds
