Hi friend,
See it all depends how you look at things.
If you look a particular thing in a positive manner,then you'll easily sail through.

Electrical Engineering is a very interesting branch and even you must have enjoyed studying it during your graduation.
Once you have your basics clear about a subject,that subject becomes very easy!
So in my view you must concentrate o the basics.

Get your basics right and then you'll yourself see that Electrical Engineering is so easy.
So go for it as an optional subject for Civils main exam!

Work hard and succeed in life!
Bye!
