Damn. I think they're one of the top in aerospace eng.
I'm planning on doing either mechanical or aerospace next year. Gonna go to either rutgers or villanova. Got a full ride to both
I see ixcuincle has me covered. I'm going here for my PhD. Funny thing is, I didn't even know until last year that it was one of the top aerospace schools. It is a seriously huge program. I think there are something like 500 undergrads and 300 grads.

You plan on researching after you finish your doctorate?
No we're both ME's. He is my brother. The FE exam is one of two tests you have to pass to be a licensed professional engineer. The PE exam is the second one.

Nice! How good did you do in undergrad to get accepted there?
In engineering you don't need a masters to get a phd. Its probably more common to go straight from undergrad to a phd program than a masters because most phd programs are funded and masters aren't.
I'm not saying he doesn't. I'm just saying a lot of people go straight from undergrad to phd in engineering. Most phd programs are free; masters are full tuition.
Cramming sucks: avoid it at all costs. I did a lot of cramming in my early college days and it really set me back. Its better to not study at all, I've found.
That being said, is there anything worse than a cumulative exam?
I remember for my mid term on accounting for business consolidations and the equity method with a controlling interest, I planned two weeks in advance to study 1 to 2 hours a night for a straight week before the exam. The problem is I had a major fraud project due the day before the exam, a business law exam two days before the accounting exam, and a major audit exam a week before the exam, plus 2 audit projects and an audit presentation to give the week of the exam.
God I love grad school.
Edit: forgot I had an advanced corporate tax quiz the day before the accounting exam.
TLDR: I think it is pretty much impossible to not cram at Grad school. At least at my school it is. I don't even work. I have worked for the past 7 years of my life, but I took this year off to focus on school, and I still have LESS time to get everything done. I do teach several accounting labs to undergraduate students, but I only do that in the mornings. 3 more weeks.
1st year Economics student here. You guys are having your finals already? Mine don't start until May 9th.
May 9th - Accounting 101 - Easy for me, hard for others.
May 11th - English 102 - Doubt we even have an actual final. Most likely going to be a paper.
May 11th - Philosophy 142 (Human Nature) - Prof gives awesome review sheets, but still will be hard.
May 14th - French 202 - FML. This is going to rip me a new one.
EDIT: While on the subject of procrastinating...doing it right now. Have an accounting and philosophy test tomorrow and I haven't started to study for either of them, or do my French homework.

I heard (today actually), that you are allowed to use books and notes and everything on these exams, but that they are like 8 hours long. Is this truth?
