A auto degree will get you nowhere. Its a waste of your time. You would learn more working at a shop or on your own at the library.

Go for management or get a associates in Mechanical engineering… much more potential if the auto thing does not work out into a career.

Good advice. Don’t piss away time and money on a mechanic education if you have intentions of going beyond that. Go straight to the more valuable education and learn how to turn a wrench at a job that pays for the business or engineering education or on your own.
