Nobody has advice for this? At all?

Yeah I have one week left. Idk what to do though outside of studying as much as I can... Other input is appreciated

I recently started a terminal masters program in physics. Shortly after starting, I had a big anxiety issue that I never had in my life before. In my undergrad I worked 2 jobs, was in a fraternity, was in a physics program full time and had a social life. I managed to make it all work and life...

I had to look twice to make sure I didn't write your post. I pushed through undergrad and was pretty happy overall. I'm in a terminal masters program now and kind of wish I took time off. The classes aren't super difficult but I'm spending such little time due to lack of interest on my...

The schools you listed as tier 2 and 3 are excellent schools. For the other part, I don't really know.

Hey everyone I made a thread before regarding graduate school but quite frankly, I think I made a mistake. I was excited over the summer to start my terminal MS program in physics however, as of late I'm really not enjoying it and quite frankly don't see a point. I don't know if it has to...

Thank you for the response. What is your friend doing at the company? Is he doing well financially? I'm just feeling disenchanted with physics lately and have an urge to more applicable stuff. I also have a general feeling that it's easier to get a good job as an engineer.

Hi everyone. Recently, I started a MS program (terminal) in applied physics. I'm noticing my desire for physics really isn't there. The core coursework (classical mechanics, math physics) thus far isn't too interesting, thus I'm not doing that well. The honest reason for going is that it...
