    LaTeX Notes taking and bad handwriting. Possible to use LaTeX ?

    You are correct that I should learn to write properly. For example, I created something like that : https://github.com/gillouche/Notes/blob/master/maths/integrals/notes.pdf https://github.com/gillouche/Notes/blob/master/maths/algebra/notes.pdf (I changed the format from notes to cheatsheet...

    LaTeX Notes taking and bad handwriting. Possible to use LaTeX ?

    Good morning, I am going back to school to get a degree in Physics in September. I am concerned about how to make clean summary/notes of what I'll learn. For information, I have a really really really bad handwriting and it is just painful to read what I write. That's why I thought about...

    Programs Stressed about jobs with a physics degree for sciences jobs

    Thanks ! my initial passion is astrophysics but I don't want to struggle to find a job later. That's why I chose this university, they have a normal bachelor's degree and a master's degree in Condensed Matter Physics. At the moment, I have absolutely no idea if I would prefer a job in research...

    Programs Stressed about jobs with a physics degree for sciences jobs

    Hi, thank you for this answer ! At the moment, I have no idea if I might like working as a researcher or not. I guess I will figure that during my studies. I know that I will get a master for sure (that is, if I don't fail my studies but I worked so much for the past year that I would be...

    Programs Stressed about jobs with a physics degree for sciences jobs

    Hi, in two weeks, I am going to send my application to a university to get a degree in physics (I live in Europe so it is going to last 5 years, 3 years for a bachelor's degree and 2 years for a master). At the moment, I am a 27 years old software developer (I have a bachelor's degree in...

    PhD in Germany vs USA: IIT Roorkee Physics Student

    Isn't it something like bachelor's degree in 3 years, master's degree in 2 years and then a PhD in 3 years ? I think that's the main road to get a PhD in Europe. We don't have undergraduate for 4 years and then master+PhD for 4-5 years. Unless I am wrong, one needs to have a master's degree to...

    Studying Share self-studying mathematics tips

    I will go back to school in September to get a degree in physics (bachelor + master if everything works as expected). For the moment, I am re-learning the maths needed to not suffer too much the first year. I am almost done with Khan Academy (everything is "mastered", I just need to finish a...

    Other Becoming an Engineer: Considerations and Personal Experiences

    Hello PF ! I plan to go back to school in september but I don't know what I should choose. I am 27 years old and my initial plan was to go back to school for 5 years and get a degree in Condensed Matter Physics (in Luxembourg, it is 3 years for the bachelor's degree (undergraduate kind of) + 2...

    Path to follow to learn maths and physics this year before school (sept 2015)

    For the moment, I only learned mathematics with Khan Academy and I know it is a great support in addition of a textbook. I didn't open a textbook so far so I think it is best if I focus on mathematics and make sure I master a big part of what I will need for my studies in physics. When I am...

    Best Ways to Self Learn Math

    What's so bad about it ? I am almost done with Differential Calculus and KA helped me a lot with Algebra II, Trig, Proba and stats and Precalculus. I learned so much more with KA compared to when I was in high school (I am currently relearning maths and physics because I plan to go back to...

    Looking for a book with a lot of physics problems

    Thanks whyevengothere, I already found it after some research. Thanks jedishrfu too, I'll have a look. I will probably focus on books with problems for high school and early unergraduate until next year.

    Looking for a book with a lot of physics problems

    Hi, I will go back to school next year to start studying physics. For the moment, I am learning/reviewing maths with Khan Academy and the book of Mary Boas. Once I am good with the maths, I will start to review/learn physics (Khan Academy, Fundamental of Physics by Halliday and Resnick...

    Master in Condensed Matter Physics or Astrophysics

    I will start from the beginning. I will go through the bachelor's degree in Physics (3 years) and then the 2 years for the master. I am just asking those questions about the master because the bachelor's degrees are more or less the same and the master I choose will have an impact on the...
