Thanks for the insight. I personally know an adjunct professor of ours from botany department and I've seen him struggle a lot with finance because of low pay, uncertainty and all that.

I am not from the Canada but thank you for your suggestions. I think I should try to become a technical editor first.

Yes sir, it is quite true. I am a bit confused. Sir, it might be a teaching position on contact basis, that is, not permanent. Since I am from Southeast Asia I don't think naming my exact country will be of any help. But I do not understand how could I tutor? Should I become an independent...

Hello everyone. In my country, I am not sure with the latest regulation regarding compulsion of PhD for the post of associate professor in academia. Ultimately, I actually want to become a police officer, becoming a Police Sergeant will do. I am confident that I will finish my Bachelor's with a...

Thank you. The Sommerfeld's lectures are individually cheap to buy, so that's a plus point. I will also look forward buying Pauli's books.

Thank you. I did not know much about Feynman but now it is apparent that he was a brilliant physicist. I will make sure to look up his lectures on YouTube. I am feeling lucky that someone like Feynman existed and gave us a gift.

I know but I much prefer a book.

Thanks. I seem to understand the lectures pretty well. I am going to buy them pretty soon.

What are the books that I should supplement with Feynman's Lectures?

I have Thomas and Finney's book on Calculus for reference. Am I prepared for Feynman's Lectures? I've studied physics for two years in high school.

I am so sorry for all the confusion. Thank you. I got all the answers I needed. I am sorry if I was a headache to deal with.

I am sorry I was unable to tell the big picture. After a year (when I get into the third year of my course) I'll have to select my primary subject. I've narrowed down to two subjects - Zoology and chemistry. I want to be either a life scientist or a physical scientist. If I choose the life...

I wonder why you're doubting something I said? Here my second semester exams are rolling in, and that means if I want to do physics, I'd have to get readmited to first year and do everything from scratch. Sounds scary to me. Thank you for guiding me. Chemical physics is definitely researched...

I absolutely love physical chemistry and I am content with it. Although I may never be able to explore other branches of physics (say, cosmology) I guess atomic physics will do. Quantum mechanics sounds absolutely interesting and I will have to do a lot of work before I can actually understand...
