I don't know why everyone keeps bringing up dropping out. I honestly think more people get kicked out then drop out, by a good amount. The attrition rate for the nuke pipeline is actually ridiculously low in relation to what everyone thinks it is, like 11% or something over the past few years. It's harder to fail than it is to pass, to be honest. The people that "drop out" generally don't drop out, they are kicked out because they went to mast for underage drinking or cheating or anything along those lines.. Integrity is such a big deal here, and any integrity violation will have you out of the program instantly.

If you truly want to be here, you will put in the work required. If you're lazy, unmotivated, etc.. it will show.

If the Nuclear Field interests you, go for it. It's challenging, but because it's challenging it is also very rewarding.
