Hi everyone first time posting so I am not sure if this is the right area but I saw another post in here that is asking new guys stuff so here it goes. I just applied to Maine Maritime and was looking to get in to a maritime school. First off I am going in as a transfer student, I was going to school for teaching but during the process I realized that I don’t want to do that. Its different coaching young kids to swim and teaching them school subjects and I just don’t think I want to do that for the rest of my life. I have always love the water and boats, I work on a charter boat, which is the best thing to me since sliced bread, most fun I’ve had working ever. So my question is I know what calc, phys and Meteorology are, but the other classes seam scary to me, I read up on them a little bit but still are they hard, easy. I just don’t no what to expect. Also MTO was filled so i went for SVO which my cousin told me that I could easily move to MTO. How true is this, how easy and when can i do it. Any Info would help. Thanks everyone.

I wouldn’t be too worried about classes, if I got through drinking my ass off 3-4 nights a week among other extra curriculars you will probably do just fine. especially if you were doing halfway decent in a teaching program, my ex girlfriends homework for elementary Ed made me cringe.

Sounds about right. Kind of more “curricular” an activity for that place now that i look back.
Okay, thanks and yeah that’s what i heard, Maine is a pretty good school. Not that any other one is less bad.
