What is web-content writing?

What are the chances of a student who is only good at math but bad at writing papers to be an engineer?

• Also, if you are good at math but bad at essay writing and writing computer programs, does it mean you will do poorly with physics and chemistry. I'm asking this because ever since I failed a programming class called Algorithms due to the fact that I can't do programming for my life, my mom thinks I suck at science and will never let me go to any program that requires me to take science prerequisite. She even told me that physics does not rely on math because it has laws and requires you to visualize the problem or concepts rather than writing the formula. I feel like a hopeless wreck since I am only good at math which will cause me to do poorly in any science field that requires me to understand chemistry and physics since these are not entirely math based. I forgot to mention this, but I love math because of the fact that I am good at it, and it's fun to calculate numbers with formulas. But If you are good at math but interested in sciences(and not essay writing), I'm just worried about my mom since she still remembers that I failed an enriched science course in high school and switched me to a regular science course, and told me that even with a good science teacher, I will do poorly because I can't do science for my life. What are the chances of a college student who is only good at math but bad at writing papers and writing programs to go into engineering? Sorry for the long responses

• Answer:

  Why do you think you did badly in that science class? If you can figure that out, it will help you to know if engineering might be right for you, if you can handle the science classes you'll need to take for it. If you feel that you can, then I think you should at least try engineering - take the first few classes needed for that field, and see how you do and what you think. You can always change your major if you need to. Of course, don't major in software engineering, as that is not a fit for you. And if you find yourself struggling in some of your classes, do not give up - get tutoring, and see if you can break through your roadblocks. You know you aren't great at essay writing. Technical writing skills will be needed in some engineering jobs, so when you get to university, take advantage of your writing classes. Work with the tutors in the writing center as well. You may never be a fabulous writer, but you can improve if you work hard at it, so do so. And consider, as a backup plan to engineering, some careers that are almost entirely math-focused, in case the sciences don't work out for you. So for example, accounting/CPA, actuarial science, statistician, etc.
