Sure I'm doing it. It's very very very very (ad nauseum) hard but if you like the stuff then there shouldn't be much of a problem. In UNSW right now we're doing engineering physics which is like magnetic fields and electricity and sounds and waves and air density etc. You also have to do a Maths. I also have three Mechanical Engineering subjects, MECH1300 which is the real meat and potatoes with examining forces on objects and the such.
MECH1500 is the computing side of engineering.
And finally MECH1120 which deals with management and things like working in a team. At the same time, the other side of 1120 deals with hardware and looking at components of machines like springs and gears and washers etc.
It's hard and I've got 25 hours per week (of which I only go to 3/4 of :p) but at the same time it's enjoyable and a challenge.
