Review
With all the personality that you would expect from an engineer, the host points out that 4 of 10 boys drop out of engineering in the first year of college. You see, the money and glamour of engineering attracts them, but they can't hack it or aren't really interested. With all these dropouts, national defense is hurt. High school boy Bill takes some tests to define his potential, and in the absolute world of engineers, he gets his life sentence. This film is so bad, badly dated, and sexist that I can't help give it 5 stars. And in 50 years I expect all my reviews to be bad, badly dated, and sexist.
