Tell me about it. I was the victim of some of this bad find yourself advice. I had a 3.8 when I petitioned to transfer into EECS from L+S. I got in but the following semester EECS was heavily impacted and they turned away 4.0s.

The liberal arts are awesome. I took a ton of their classes. You really can find yourself there. Engineering is not awesome. You cannot find yourself there. You can only suffer which was I will admit, gloriously awesome. But I had nightmares for years afterward that I hadn't finished this rec or that rec. EECS sent me to the hospital my senior year. It's a tough route but I'm tougher for it.

I had a recurring nightmare in which I registered for a class at the beginning of the semester (generally a summer semester) and I somehow forgot about it the very end of the semester. I've know others to also have this exact same nightmare.
