Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

I've met a surprising amount of mechanical engineers in the hobby, even one who went to my skool (university of Oklahoma), and I live in Denver.

Good luck on the EIT. 8 hours of testing isn't a bunch of fun, but it goes by quick.

I've got a BS in mechanical engineering, and professional engineer certification (step up from the EIT).

Ah congrats man, another ME in Colorado huh? That's actually why I'm taking the EIT, trying to get it, do my 4-6 years, and then get my PE.

Yeah, I've heard it's not fun, but I got a month to study, printed out the reference book, and it's all digital now, so I've heard ctrl+f is your friend lol PM me if you want to ever talk ME stuff

BSc in Electoronic engineering. Took me two years to find out that I hated it. Mostly because I wasn't very good at it. By which time it was too late.

That's the route that I intend to go when I finish my MSc, assuming that I can get through the selection process that is......

I am currently a Biomedical Scientist and I am half way through a MSc in Medical Microbiology.

"Scientifically trained" makes it difficult to figure out whether you're talking about academics or about monkeys...
