im entering upenn m&t starting sept 2023. (dual degree of engineering + wharton). im intending to major in prooobaly electrical engineering & econ. i like chem/physics/math a lot, they're fun to study, & i want to develop a deeper grasp of fundamentals at college. but i primarily like to code and bash around and make my own projects and art. in the past i have found school to be stifling, forcing me to fight against the current to maintain parts of my identity

you can learn abt my general thought processes & life takes at lauragao.ca/2022 lauragao.ca/essays or from insider knowledge of knowing me. (or ask me questions in comments)

resolves YES if i haven't graduated by jun 30 2029 and NO otherwise

EE + Econ took me 7 years (although I taught myself SWE at the same time so grain of salt.) Definitely feels like it was worthwhile, however making this time-bounded makes YES undervalued.
