My anime tastes are fairly broad. I tend to prefer Shounen, Seinen, psychological, mystery and comedy but I'm more than happy to watch drama, romance, echii etc. if the show resonates with me. I'm generally not a huge fan of drama for the sake of drama, pure romance and pure tragedies but even then there are exceptions.
I've written brief comments on most of the series in my watchlist if you wanna know what I think about a specific series (although given that most of them were written multiple years after viewing they are likely to be biased. Also keep in mind I don't always have a lot to say about individual seasons so you will find a lot of the latter seasons of a show blank ).
A little note on my recommendations. I've tried to give proper justifications that are possible for you "to weigh" when contemplating whether you wanna watch what I'm recommending (e.g. if I say show B has more drama you can reflect on whether that's too much drama for you or closer to the level you're looking for). These short descriptions are meant to reflect the type of experience I had with the show and what drove my interest when watching rather than superficial similarities (I can't believe people are basing recommendations on things like the sex of the protagonist or that both shows are set in a school environment -_-). I'm also trying to avoid obvious recommendations that you could probably figure out by yourself. I feel like a good recommendation links shows that are not the necessarily the same but rather can be enjoyed by the same person. If some of the recommendations seem a bit strange to you, that is most likely the reason, or it may be that I'm partially insane.
My rating scale:
10: Basically perfect barring nitpicking. I wouldn't know how to even begin to improve it.
9: Effectively a 10. It may be a 10 that is not exactly aligned with my tastes, or a show that does a lot right but has one glaring flaw.
8: A 7 that is a cut above the rest. 8+ is what I consider a great show almost universally worth watching.
7: Basically a good show. This is my baseline for a show I enjoyed or a show that is basically well made
6: A mediocre show that is a step above average/forgetable(5) or a good show (7-8) that has too many flaws to overlook.
5: Middle of the line average. Barely passable. A show you probably wouldn't rewatch and about the lowest rating I would bear recommending.
4: A show that I would probably tell my past self to skip. A semi-decent show that has one too many flaws and is therefore rendered borderline bad
3: A bad show with some redeeming qualities or a contentious show with some undeniable issues that is a bad match for my tastes
2: A firmly bad show with little to no redeeming qualities
1: A god-awful abomination
Feel free to message me if you wanna discuss something, a recommendation etc.

Aerodynamics is just like fluid dynamics but with air, in fact fluid dynamics is a prereq for aero at my university so it made sense. Loved fluids, thought it was relatively easy then went into aero and had no idea what was going on, it do be like that in college. I took it as an elective so it wasn't really that much of a deal to me though.
That's a fair opinion, I just value money more because it's starting to become a need in this shit economy (US based, don't know where you're from), and the economy does not show any signs of improving. LOL didn't even notice I fudged the percentages, I meant 65/35.
Yeah I feel that, I'm finished with school now and I still wake up some nights sweating and thinking I got an assignment due and I missed it lmao, I guess that engineering mindset never really left me. Thanks man, I hope the same to you.
That's good you're not about the money, passion is what matters for some people which is something I respect. For me it's probably 65% money / 45% passion, but I do get to work on cool shit so that definitely helps.
Regardless, good luck with everything, and try to take it easy every once in a while, you know how studying for engineering is, it can go absolutely bonkers sometimes.
Yes, fellow engineer. I've went through engineering school and considered going after a Master's degree but couldn't handle the pain haha. Also, my current job makes enough that I don't see the point of getting a master's.
I also found our conversation pretty interesting so go right ahead with the questions. lol
Anyway, best wishes for a successful outcome.
