I agree/understand. I will certainly avoid applying for straight physics programs. I am also aware that - if I get in anywhere - it will be at least 30-50 places down the rankings compared to my BS/MS unis. Whilst I would love to be based in a physics department, I would be happy as long as my...

Yes that is correct.

Classical Mechanics - B in “upper division” course taken as separate course includes ( principle of least action, calc of variations and Lagrangians/Hamiltonians) E/M - did not take QM - A in “Upper division” course, B in grad Stat Mech - A in “Upper Division” course, F in grad (yes ouch I...

Hello, I’m looking to apply for CSME/computational physics/biophysics PhDs in America starting in September 2024. I'm a bit scared about physics departments just because whilst I have mechanics, QM and Stat Mech I have never taken any atomic/electrodynamic classes. I would like to know if my...
