Question

Is 25 too old to go back to school to become a mechanical engineer ?

Answer 1

h**l no it's not to late. I recently graduated from college with my degree in electrical and I have a wife and two kids at home. It might take more time, but it's worth it in the long run.

Answer 2

realistically speaking, yes. i know of guys doin mba at 35-36yrs. that kinda is a trend, today. but, someone doin mech after 25 sounds a little weird.

but, never the less, if you are desperate to do mech, go ahead, follow your passions passionately...!!

Answer 3

Let us do a small math.

Let us say, you will take six years to graduate and you will be 31 when you have done so. Let us assume you want to retire at 62 years age. You can work as a mech engineer for 31 years.

I know of people who have gone to school at 38 years age.

Answer 4

no.  I went back to school at 30.  And if you wait 'till you're 50, tuition might be half price, or even free, compared to your classmates.

Answer 5

h**l no go for it //
