    Well, it depends on your personality...a lot of factors. If you consider yourself a "go-getter" and you really know what you want, then by all means, go to UofT...That said, I'd be careful with "too-small" schools because it may not be challenging enough and you might not get enough "exposure"...

    Masters in Engineering after Bachelors in Physics?

    You can certainly enter a graduate program in engineering. Just be aware that the research you will do will be highly focused and thus, you cannot qualify as a practising engineer, because you lack the requisite broad background taken by undergrad engineering majors.

    I did my undergrad at UofT. Here's a summary of my experiences: It will expose you to the "best" and "top" research. It will also eat you up and spit you out if you falter during your four years there. That is to say, it cultivates a Darwinian mentality. Smaller schools are way more...

    Working as an electrical engineering : Greece or USA ?

    Hi ! I was recently thinking of doing the opposite...don't ask...moving from Canada to Greece to get a physics job (postdoc) but then I turned it down because it was too scary to imagine living in a different place. I think the experience abroad can be very valuable PROVIDED the job is secured...
