Honestly, I'm fine with not getting a high salary. But I'm not sure about the other things you mentioned. I will do as you say and I'll enter as an engineer. I might get interested in engineering if I try it out for some time.

I've already done my homework on the career prospects physicists have and I'm considering either to have a minor in comp sci or to double major.

I'm curious about how the universe works. I believe that physics can help me have a better understanding of it. I'm mostly interested in astrophysics and cosmology. I also like how elegant some physics formulae are.

Thanks everyone for all the feedback you have given me

It's right that half a year ago I was losing interest in physics, but I the reason for that was because I had to self-study 10 high school physics chapters because the school I'm in didn't have a good physics teacher at that time. I still aced that academic year because of the work I put in...

The reasons are as follows: 1. They want me to finish my higher education quickly(in 3 or 4 years) and get a good job. 2. They think that I'm too naive about how the world works and I should just follow the path they have chosen for me. 3. They think that physics has bad job prospects.

I have decided to pursue a bachelor's degree in physics with an aim of entering graduate school after that, but my parents are opposed to the idea and want me to purse a degree in engineering instead. How can I convince them to allow me to pursue a degree in physics?

Won't double majoring result in a lowering of my GPA?

I am a senior inn high school who's highly interested in physics, but my parents won't allow me to study a hard science subject in uni. The other alternative that I've found which they might be willing to have me study is engineering physics. Question 1: Is there anyway I can convince them to...

Is it possible for me to transfer my major form EP to physics while I'm an undergraduate ?

I am, currently, a senior in high school. I am interested in science and particularly in physics. So, I, naturally, want to major in physics when I go to University. But I'm not sure if I want to be a physicist when i grow up and I have also heard about how getting into academia is very hard and...

First of all, I'm a Christian and an expatriate living in Saudi Arabia. Yes, the universities here are much more expensive than the ones in Malaysia, while the quality of education is relatively lower. I have considered Germany, but the living costs were too much for me. Do you know of any...

Do you know of any other countries which provide cheap education?

Also, it'd be helpful if you provide me with an overview of their research development.

Hello everyone! I'm Meron, and I'm a high school senior. As you've already guessed, this is the time for me to think of which university I should be attending. I'm currently residing in Saudi Arabia, and studying at a school which follows the Indian system. I'm thinking of being a physicist when...
