I'm studying Aeronautical at Glasgow University, and it's a big challenge to say the least. Completed my 1st year with a GPA of 14.17 which was deemed as a 'good solid year' by my advisor of studies. Going into 2nd year there are a few topics that I have studied in my final years of secondary school which help but the maths is a big step up from the 1st year level maths we got taught.
I applied to Glasgow and got made an offer within a week or so. There were no interviews as such.
Taking a subject such as Aeronautical Engineering at university is a very big challenge but I like a challenge and I like push myself and this I believe drives me forward to revise and knuckle down. I felt school had got me to an appropriate level to begin my degree and coupled with good lecturers in 1st year I felt I did a pretty solid job.
