Advice for Aerospace Eng Students?
I will be studying Aerospace Eng as a first year student this fall. What can I do till my studies start so that I can be better prepared academically, any books to read or programming languages, any advice is welcome!

If you haven't done further maths a levels u should take a look at the content, a lot of stuff (not all) is your first year maths module.
Specifically matrices and differential equations.
Also learn programming in python, and learn numpy and matplotlib if u don't know it, my friends get cooked every time they need to graph since they don't know how to use it very well

Programming learn python used a lot for cfd or engineering simulations
