Serious advice/plan for admission to top Physics/Maths Grad Schools
I am currently studying a Bachelor of Technology in the subject "Food Technology". I have completed 2 years just now.Yes, I have been exposed to Mathematics in my first year of college studying Differential and Integral...
How smooth can this transition be? For example,even if I get into say genetic engineering at a very good uni,and I still have the inclination for physics/maths,I could transition into that only if I was an excellent student and I already had the knowledge of physics/maths to demonstrate to them...
Wouldn't you say that the kind of people you're with and the kind of experiences you have shape your life to a good extent? I have been in average schools and universities since the past few years prior to which I was enrolled in one of the top high schools in the country, and I can really tell...
That sounds great. I guess I have just conditioned my mind to think this way,which might be due to a variety of reasons,specifically my past experiences. Well,thank you for the suggestions. I will just do my best and see how it goes.
That is really the right question to ask. I knew so little about physics because as I mentioned,I never tried to realize this ambition until now. I had been involved in many things,and a lack of focus on one made things disastrous for me. I never knew the importance schools had to play,until I...
Uh,now that I've written it,I can't say you're wrong. Could you suggest me what should I be doing at this point of time? What would be the plan if you were at my place?
Perhaps you're right. But everything can have a first time,can it not? Aren't there any maths or physics Olympiads held at the undergrad level in India that are widely recognized throughout the U.S. ? Something,anything that helps establish the fact that I am worthy of applying for such courses...
I have been nothing but frustrated these 2 years,not working towards what I wanted to do. Actually,not knowing what I was capable of or what I wanted to do with my life.Without consulting anyone,I had adamantly made up my mind that my course couldn't be changed. It's not as if I hate this...
Hi,
I am an Indian student currently pursuing a Bachelor in Technology in the field Food Technology. However,I have been wanting to study more of physics,maths and computer science in graduate school. I never had great scores in my high school examinations,not because I feel I didn't have the...
