No, it is not common for engineers to be unable to write essays and papers. Many engineers work on research, auditing, managing, quality control. equipment design, ,,, etc. All those categories of engineers sure learned and knew how to write reports and essays.
True!
On average they are as good or as bad as the general public.
The Answer to your question is NO, indeed this is a rumour and some one has been fooling with you. In fact maths is very much needed in engineering and used directly or indirectly in some or the other subject like Applied Physics, Electronic Devices and Circiuts, etc. So if you are good in maths you will bot fail engineering. And even if by bad luck you fail in any subject, then its not because you are good in maths, but because your efforts in that subject were not up to the mark.
Opinions vary. Every new technology creates both new opportunities and new dangers. The consequences of genetic engineering are still unfolding, and the science of genetic engineering is quite young. Ask me again in another 50 years.
It could be argued that genetic research is neither good nor bad, it is the application of the research that may be good or bad. For example, a rich dictator creating a clone of himself - bad thing, a cure for Parkinson's disease - good thing.
not that i know of, but im sure if you can write than yes, just instead type :-)
True!
It always depend on the person if he will pass a subject or not.
no
no
yes of course
no
it is true they are bad x
No, it is not true. It is false.
Sounds backwards to me.
That depends. Are you bad at engineering?
No, that is not true. But it helps to do good in writing so you can explain and document the facts and results of physics and engineering. I hated to write essays in school, but now I enjoy writing technical memos in engineering, so do your best
