forget design trechnology or anything...

take math: functions, ap functions if your school offers it, and calculus

also, you probably want to take physics, and chem and bio wouldn't hurt if you want your college trnscript to look good so that you can get into a good engineering program

Graduate high school, and then go to University and ask the advisors there :thumbsup:

but it starts with lots of math

Yeah like the others have said physics and mathematics, definately the most important. They are not easy though.

The mathematics should be 3U or above, or 2U +, not general. But you can still get into it with general, its better to do something higher

Im guessing the subjects will be different in canada, but thats how it is down under in aus  :thumbsup:
