Waterloo could be a little bit harder, but all Canadian undergraduate physics programs are pretty much the same. The difference will only show in the specialized 4th year classes that they offer, which will change based on the type of research that university excels at. I wouldn't completely...

Yes, but I don't just give optimistic advice to anyone. The fact that the OP has a 92 in calculus right now, and has gotten 90's in past semesters, is evidence that they will be able to succeed in a Canadian university. I am currently attending an undergraduate physics program at a Canadian...

Just because you aren't doing amazingly well in Physics 30, does not mean you will fail at a more prestigious university. In my first year, I had horrible marks in the one physics class I took (57 I think), but I got it together the next year and now, in my third year, I am getting consistent...

Cheers from Canada! I am an undergraduate physics student hoping to graduate with a specialization in astronomy. I've been lurking here for a long time, and thought it was time for me to join in.

Thank you very much to both of you! It makes sense now, I think that the way these equations were presented in my class was the root of my confusion. I should have realized that E=pc would only apply to photons as it includes c.

Hello all! I am new to this forum, though I have been lurking for a long time. I intend to fill out my profile and introduce myself, but finals leave me with little time to spare at the moment. I have this final next week and would like to sort this out beforehand, hence the hasty post! Thank...
