No, you're not being rude at all.
I am interested in learning more about masters programs following a previous recommendation, based on what I said in my original question. I don't feel as though I have seen enough of what the various branches of physics have to offer, yet I need to choose...
Hi,
I am interested in getting a Masters in Physics at a US graduate school. I always thought that getting a Masters was an incidental event on the way to getting a Ph.D., but apparently it is possible to just go for the Masters. Does anyone know anything about this? Are there lists of...
Masters program in physics
I wish that Masters programs were more common in the US. I think this would be a perfect solution to my quandary, though I would still be somewhat at a loss for the field in which I'd apply for a masters.
Can anyone give me more information on Masters programs in...
take it later
This depends a lot on a variety of factors. I took it November of my senior year, but this would have been too late had I been applying to go to graduate school directly after undergrad, at least for some schools. I think the October test is in time. I studied for a couple...
Hi,
I am a recently-graduated physics and math major, looking to go back to grad school after a couple years off. I am having trouble choosing a graduate school to attend, because I am uncertain of my research interests. I took a couple graduate-level classes (QM and Particle Physics), and...
Hi,
I have my BS in Physics and Math from the University of MN, 3 years of experimental physics research experience but no publications, about 3.85 technical GPA (but very close to 4 in Physics classes), and a good GRE Physics score.
I want to go to grad school for theoretical physics, though...
two-fish
What was Einstein wrong about? I think his viewpoint is commonly misunderstood. And when you say the debate is settled, what is the result of the debate? Einstein was trying to defend local realism, a principle that I don't think has been universally rejected.
Hi,
I got my BS in Physics/Math in May, but left on a 1-2 year bike trip that is delaying my applying to graduate schools. I plan on applying next fall for admittance fall 2013.
My question is: how necessary is it to have specific research interests when applying to graduate school? I am...
Hi,
I have a BS in Physics and Math, and am taking a 2 year hiatus to bike to Argentina. I'm currently 3000 miles in, 14000 left.
Anyway, I am going to apply to graduate school for admission 2013, and I'm interested in theoretical physics. Primarily, I am interested in the foundations of...
I am a senior Physics/Math major. I want to go to grad school (99% sure) but I am not ready to start immediately after undergrad, I hope to bike to and live in South America next year. My question is, how harmful will this be to my chances at getting into a top tier physics Pd.D. program the...
So... I know nobody will be able to give me a very clear answer to this question, but I was hoping someone out there might be able to give me an idea of how likely I am to get into a top tier physics graduate school (UChicago is my first choice). Anyway, here's all the relevant info about me...
