Does anyone here do it or know anyone who does it?

Im a yr12 student at the moment and want to know what its like and what you exactly do in it?

And also what sort of UAI is needed?, and wat sorts of subjects?

Thankyou very much for any help...really need it!

actually its all good, its all good and i realised that many people have done 2u to 4u maths.....feel so ashamed, i'am only doing general 2u

God i was so looking forward to doing something with cars and engines as i love it and i no that i will enjoy it. Plus i havent done physics in my years of school.

Im so upset.........

if your looking at actually playing around with motors and stuff i think you'll be betta off doing an apprenticeship or maybe tafe, cause uni its more like the theory and the design of mechanics, but i haven't started the course yets so im not sure

 

[OzzY]

The design?

Is it more heavy machinery or more car motors etc, because i have been studying cars and engines since a young age.

I hope someone can emphasise on the mechanical engineer course because i would really appreciate it. thankyou

its not all about cars man

haha dats right not just cars, mechanical engineering is mechanics of all moving parts, so planes cars boats, factory machinery, everything that moves so if your just looking at cars n appreticeship is more suitable for you ozzy

have a look at the course and all the subjects involved here

If u want to get a hands on job,
try a apprenticeship with some car place or tafe and learn mechanics,
uni mechanical engineering is more about automation, robotics and stuff.
Plus, tafe and apprenticships give u more hands on.

At uni I doubt they'll ever teach you how to install a turbo kit, or noss. Anyways, mech engineering is only uai 74 or something at uts and 60 at uws penrith.
I wanna learn how to install turbo, so I can install it in ma excel
