to kev, well, let's start at t1=0 (in your frame). You turn on the laser, standing at the center, oriented towards the 0th degree of the circle. radius is 5 light seconds long. so it will take 5 seconds for your first laser spot to appear at the 0 degree mark. by then you will have turned 5...

http://www.ets.org/Media/Tests/MFT/pdf/mft_mathII.pdf http://www.math.utah.edu/~crofts/ sample questions. there is actually a lot of material available on net. google math subjective gre more than once, you'll get different results sometimes. you might find a lot. albeit there is lesser out...

to choppy, may i ask what fields did you switch between?

to poweriso, I'm not worried so much about subjects (UG/PG) as i am about research 'experience'. as i said, institutes here do offer a variety of subjects. so the unknown information you are talking about, might not be a big problem. I have no means of finding out if it's ok to have your...

i've done a paper on quantum cryptography, and am planning to engage in a computer simulation of the same. it is my personal opinion about microelectronics and the likes (vlsi etc). i am really not interested in solid state or material sciences. in the end everything is related, but i want to...

i am very much interested in theoretical particle physics. i know its a long shot to get into it after the EE background. so i have kept the option of quantum information/computation and computational physics open. i in fact have done a little work there. if you want to go in condensed matter...

I'm in final year EC (graduating in a month or so). and your last question makes me laugh. he he. there are no 'physics courses' at Nirma. There was a "Physics" in 1st sem. Then there was "Electromagnetic Theory" in 5th. These are pretty much the 'theoretical' subjects I have studied in physics...

Hello, I am a final year Bachelor of Technology student in Electronics & Communication Engineering from India. I am planning to switch to physics as my further study and career objective. I first plan to obtain a master's here in India, and then opt for a PhD abroad, as of course I do not...

I have gone through the course structures of many institutes before. and about your previous reply, you still have two more years to do the catching up. don't worry, its only the last year or two when you actually do the bulk of your profile, that is if you DO it of course.

as far as a PhD is concerned, I definitely want to get it in a University abroad. I am pretty sure that i won't get even near a particle accelerator, let alone write a thesis on one, if i stay here. one major reason why i dint get in any university this time was the lack of physics courses on my...

to maverick, i can understand your situation about discouragement from people about switching fields in india. but that's the real fun. you pretty soon get to know yourself if you really are motivated for it. anyway, what i meant before about 'working' in physics field was this: pick up as...

to anigol and maverick, in india, you definitely can do an M.Sc. or a Ph.D. in physics directly after a B.Tech. in all the institutes like IISc, IITs, RRI, PRL, HRI etc., BE/Btech is listed as an official eligibility criterion. so there's no problem there. here's a good link to universities...

i did apply this year, although i don't have a huge physics background and dint make it this time. so a piece of advice, if u want to pursue physics in a reputable university abroad, try to do as many physics courses and intern/assistant-ships that u can. if ur project and paper work during the...

TO Maverick, Yes, I did take the general gre. will take the physics gre this year. what year are you in? being an IITian you must have the flexibility of taking courses/projects in other departments. you should take advantage there. do you plan to apply to PhD's abroad?

to maverick: yes, BTech/BE are eligible for JAM. I had called IITK physics department. They say we can take the test and apply as regular students to the M.Sc. programs. to anigol: what year are you in, and what University? i'll graduate this month. I'm presently appearing for...
