On the plus side, you really don't need to study for them provided you have can do high school algebra and have a decent vocabulary. The test really is rather trivial. I think the test could be used to keep someone out but wouldn't guarantee acceptance over another qualified candidate. I...

I would highly recommend Srednicki's book on quantum field theory. I've used both this and Peskin's book when learning QFT. They both are excellent. Zee's book, Quantum Field Theory in a Nutshell, is nice if you want something that reads more like a novel.

I've enjoyed Greiners books on QED and QCD but I wonder if there is anywhere that sells all his books in one complete set. I've seen complete sets of Landau's books.

Yeah I miss read the question and edited my post immediately after posting it...

Received acceptance from Florida State University today. I applied for their HEP physics program.

Sex life of an electron One night, when his charge was full to capacity, Micro Farad decided to get a cute little coil to discharge him. He picked up Millie Amp and took her for a ride on his megacycle. They rode across the wheatstone bridge, into a magnetic field, next to a flowing current ...

What book is that from? You've got me interested now.

Maybe they just needed to get a leg up in life?

I told you to put some fish repellent on. You should have listened to me. Now you smell worse than Math is Hard on laundry day.

Yo dude. I hope you are wearing some fish repellent. They have some interesting traditions around here.

Theft of painkillers... Okay so here is the story. While I was sitting in my quantum mechanics class yesterday I got a text message from someone whom identified themselves as a friend on my roommates. He noticed that I had some prescription painkillers that I was taking after my wisdom teeth...

Lol Well I have a history of being resistant to some drugs. Kinda weird. However I think it was more of a will power sort of thing. Physicist get a +2 to their will saves. :) 2 of mine were impacted but the pain is virtually nothing. I had previously almost lost 2 fingers in an accident with a...
