Depends on your Major, I have a paramedic buddy who studies like there is no tommoro. And then there are the "Recreational Therapy" majors who party till 3 AM like every single day...

Mechanical Engineer here! I graduate with my batchelors next spring! WOOT! Hey so yeah math is HUGE. Like all the engineering courses I've taken have been almost completely math. Or like machining crap. I love to tinker as well, and honestly, its not quite the same thing... It can be though, with patience. With tinkering I worried about numbers like maybe less than 10% of the time. But with actual engineering, its more like 60% or more of your time on a project is spent crunching numbers or drafting... On the bright side, you can make waaaayyyyy sweeter stuff by crunching those numbers and modelling than you could ever make by just tinkering away at something trial-and-error style. In all honesty: (lol, and because we're all otakus here) I say go for it, because there may very well be giant mechs out there when we are older, and if there are, then you get to be that guy who poses with the huge wrench and is all like, "ye."
