hi everyone,

I'll be finishing school by the end of February and will be enrolled into university to study physics at the start of october.

Any constructive ideas as to what to do before I enrol?

(I've thought about studying in advance, but not sure if that would do much help)

Appreciate any help!

Make some money?

Or you could volunteer in physics related activities (tutoring etc).

as my university would be self-funded (paying the international fees!!), I've thought of trying to make money by giving tuition, but the idea of it doesnt sound really exciting.

Are there any paid internships out there related to physics that maybe i could participate?

No. At your skill level, no business would pay you to do physics-related stuff for them.
