I want to be an electrical engineer. It sounds fascinating, but I honestly don't know much about it at all. It's about time I learned. I start college this fall but right now I have a LOT of free time and I want to get a head start now.
What could I spend the next few months doing before I start school? I see this time as an opportunity to immerse myself in engineering and fall in love with it before college steals my life away. Most importantly I want to get a solid basic understanding of what I'm getting myself into, and have some fun in the process.
I envy nerds who spend all their time tinkering around with electronics, programming, (and posting on physics forums.) It sounds awesome, but I don't know where to start.
So any ideas? Know any tutorials/websites that could give me a solid intro to EE? I could start some simple projects for hands on experience with electronics. What tools might I need? Which programming language should I start learning? (jk)
Thanks for your help. (I'm such a n00b)
