Physics Should I switch to astrophysics?
You should be very realistic. Check the job listings on NASA or ESA. See what they are looking for.- CCofADoa

Job Skills I finally got my bachelor's degree in physics, now what?
Everyone keep name-dropping data science. I don't think it's that easy to get into it. Especially if you don't live in USA. Not every country has a healthy job market for data scientists. Certainly not Europe. And you're basically competing with graduates from other majors, that are usually more...- CCofADoa

Classical Are there advanced brain teaser books for physics beyond first-year principles?
Keith Kendig's Sink or Float. Yakov Perelman's books published by Mir are also similar.- CCofADoa

Introductory Analysis -- Self Studying
The easiest way to self-study analysis is perhaps by going through R.P. Burn's Numbers and Functions: Steps into Analysis. It's a problem book and it has all of the essentials.- CCofADoa

Good Textbooks for QM: Get Advice Here!
The recordings from Barton Zwiebach you watch are also available in edx.org with quizzes and problems. They provide feedback and solutions. I think if you can finish them, you can say you know undergrad QM.- CCofADoa

How to compare two measurements with uncertainties in terms of sigma?
Thanks a lot. So, do people even say, "Our result is within 1 sigma from the accepted value" when they are talking about the t-value? Perhaps it's just the people in my country. Personally I always find it difficult to find the references for this stuff, beyond basic error propagation. For...- CCofADoa

How to compare two measurements with uncertainties in terms of sigma?
Perhaps that statement is just saying how big the t-value is. Like, in this case: t = (1.0 - 0.98) / 0.1 = 0.1 So we can say that our measured value is within 1 sigma from the other measured value. In this case, do we just ignore the uncertainties of the other measured/reference value? It's...- CCofADoa
