definitely going to take a look at some masters programs tonight , that just might work.

If someone has bothered to write it down , and It is theory pertaining to math or physics , I can learn it , and master its applications with nothing but a good library(and spare time). I am sure saying that makes me instantly look like a total crackpot , and for a very long time I refused to...

Ok well thank you all for your thoughts ; skeptical and negative they may be , but I appreciate an honest opinion. I am just going to keep my nose in my books and soldier on , If I can only get into a rank 30 - 50 school so be it. Hopefully doing good post doc research will still lead me to...

well...it varies a bit , but let's assume 95th percentile.

Hmm...ok so anyone have any suggestions as to what might be an appropriate physics program for me to apply to? (remember this is assuming i get >950 on the physics gre).

Ok, so what about schools in the top 20? I am thinking of the following 5 schools in particular: 1) University of chicago (ranked around #5 or 6) 2) cornell (also ranked around #5 or 6) 3) University of Illinois at urbana-champaign (ranked around # 10) 4) University of michigan - ann arbor...

I guess my point was that I got myself through the first 2 books in landau's course of theoretical physics and am almost ready for the general doctoral level qual. exams. I guess what I am saying is that my independent study greatly exceeds any college work I've ever done, my problem would be...

I will be applying to grad school (physics -- particle theory) for next fall and have in my estimation an unusual background , I was hoping some people here might give their opinion about my chances of getting into a top tier physics school like MIT or Princeton. Here's my (condensed version)...
