    If I had to take 1 more chem class as an undergrad I would not be an EE today. In quantum, which I really like, I got a small taste of physical chem which probably would not have been to bad.

    But in GENERAL CHEM SUCKS!!!!

    I work for an Affiliate company of Sprint. We own and operate CDMA wireless networks across the country. Look up APCS on the Nasdac.

    I have been an RF engineer in the industry since the early days and I'm a senior director now handling switching and performance engineering.

    The wireless industry has a lot to offer but you need to develop a thick hide to survive. Beatings always come before analysis:D just ask Doro;)

    Be nice to the nerds Brett, one day they will be your boss!

    I started in EE but had more fun doing systems design and such in IT so I switched majors. Not before I managed to get all the hard stuff in EE out of the way except for thermo-dynamics. Thank the good Lord I didn't have to take that class for IT!

    As a biochemist, I have to put in a good word for biochemistry :-)

    That being said, I've often told people that I don't know enough chemistry to be a chemist nor enough biology to be a biologist, therefore I am a biochemist.

    Just please don't ask ME to regurgitate the Krebs cycle (TCA cycle) from memory! :-)
