Just curious, is Aeronautical Science the same thing as Engineering? I've never heard of it called that.
Either way 3.9 in 2.5 years is insanely impressive. It took me 5 years and I ended up with a 2.9 lol. That being said, I may have gone to a party or 2 ;)...

Not really. My degree consisted of many ground schools, flight labs, and other classes related to commercial aviation alongside the normal geneds. It's a lot of work, but I attend a small, sattalite campus on an airport and there isn't anywhere near as much fun as a large university campus. My original goal was to finish quick so I could spend time in a normal campus, but that changed...

Right on, sounds much more fun than engineering that's for sure! I wish I went for something cool like that. I think you're going the right route with applying now though, there will be plenty of time to party later on. Hopefully for all of us!

Okay so the first time I heard of this degree was about a month ago when I started coming on the site. Now I know what an Aeronautical Sciences degree entails, so what about Aviation Management? Are the two pretty similar? My school didn't offer either of these degrees :confused:

Aviation management deals with the business aspect of managing an airport or fixed base operation at the airport. There is a lot of business related courses involved like financial accounting, managerial accounting, and finance. It's a good degree in my opinion because it gives a lot of flexibility in pursuing a career in aviation while also being a business degree
