Mastering Engineering!
One of the basic strength of an engineering practitioner is in the knowledge of the basic system of units, and the conversion of units from one standard system to the other. This knowledge is as basic as learning the letters of the alphabet , and knowing the vowels and the phonetic sounds. Without mastering these basic things by heart, one will always find difficulty in mastering engineering, and figuring out how much quantity in units of measure is involved in the calculations. Engineering is a quantitative profession. Time and again, calculations are made and units of measures are used to describe quantities of almost anything that one can think of. Even the description of the ratings and capacities of things are quantifications of what a thing can do, what it can be used for, and can not be used for. So, if you want to master engineering, be comfortable with your system of units. Learn it by heart like your ABCs and your multiplication table.
