False! I go to one of the largest Universities in the US and I hear of friends who get hired at large firms for Sci and Engineering careers and they have also dropped or even failed a class! I'd say it's quite normal in the engineering/sciences field..the material is tough.
Honestly, all you need to do is
graduate; I have friends who got away with a low GPA and still ended up getting awesome jobs with good salaries in the engineering field. Not saying that you should have a low GPA, but the demand and jobs available for science/engineering graduates is definitely out there.
