I'm sure that if you know CS as well as a CS major you wouldn't have trouble. Good luck fitting that into your already busy physics schedule! I would recommend looking at job postings for entry level CS positions.
If you really want to do CS work, start tailoring your education towards that...
I know that improving my test scores would give me a good boost. I earned an A in my electronics course this quarter and had the highest grade in the class in my computational class last quarter (but of course it was only one unit, go figure). I have just started racking up the C's in the last...
Hello,
I am finishing up my fourth year (technically my third, but that is another story). I am really burned out and I am really starting to dislike my classes, and my grades have reflected that. I haven't failed anything yet, but I got a C in both quarters of Analytical Mechanics and a C...
I don't know how the registration process works at your school, but if you really want to take the class I am sure there isn't anything stopping you from just signing up for it (I mean if you think the placement test was a fluke and you have met the prerequisites and such). I have taken classes...
I have a couple of issues with the course:
1. The text is not well loved by many. It is Analytical Mechanics by Hand and Finch. I find it far too dense and without enough worked practice problems, so that takes away from my problem solving confidence.
2. The professor is new and young...
Hello,
The last post I made included my life story, so this one will be more to the point in hopes that more will respond.
I am worried I am going to fail the second quarter of mechanics (or at best get another C). I earned a 27/100 on the recent midterm. My homework scores are also below...
You could think about studying through a differential equations book and seeing if that satisfies your interests for a while. I am sure others will have better suggestions than I do. I figure that is the progression many make with math, first do all the calculus, then linear algebra/diff eq, and...
I am actually planning on taking a total of 8 electronics courses: 1 lower division engineering circuits course (which I took when I was considering an engineering degree); 3 quarters of upper division physics electronics courses: analog circuits, digitial circuits, and data acquisition, and...
It has happened to everyone, it isn't a big deal. Just know that you know and you can prove that you are a good student with your exam scores from the homework you worked so hard on that you slept through its deadline.
I realize this isn't very anonymous, but what the hell.
A little background:
I started out at the community college as a "pre-med" (who doesn't?) and decided quickly that I am not a big chemistry fan and that I was not cut out for it. I decided to move on to engineering of some sort, but found...
This is why I am getting ready to change my major to Applied Physics with an emphasis on Physical Electronics. Basically I take 4 upper division EEC classes and 3 electronics classes through the physics dept, 3 quarters E&M, 1 mechanics, 1 QM, 1 solid state, 1 stat mech, and a few other classes...
