Oh, my plan is to stay in a math department either way. Most of the GR research that I want is actually going on in math depts. rather than physics depts. But I would say my physics background is pretty strong . . . Math/Physics double in undergrad, legit physics grad courses under my belt...
Yeah, I'd probably be set back 1-2 years on my PhD if I moved, but I would honestly rather get a doctorate at 28 for something I love than at 26 for something I like. My GPA is pretty solid; not as high as my undergrad GPA but still ~3.8 in a pretty rigorous PhD program. I don't think I've given...
Math grad student here. I'm currently finishing up my first year in a PhD program, and I based on my experiences so far I can definitely say graduate school is something I want to continue. I spent my first year taking courses in preparation for prelims rather than doing research, but I did well...
Hey all, I'm a math and physics graduate who will be starting math grad school in a little over a month, and, though I know I have time to decide, I'm a bit conflicted about what to concentrate in.
I'm broadly interested in the applications of math in physics. Specifically, I've always had...
