Hi everyone. My name is Daisy. Currently I am taking 1st college physics. It is really challenging since I am biology major (will graduate the end of next year), and this is not a required course. I don't have any study buddy. They are either very good at that or like me who has no clue what is going on.

You may wonder why I take this class then. The reason is that couple years ago I walked pass the classroom where had very strange mathematical equations with trigonometry on blackboard and I was so fascinated by it. I asked the professor, who was my baby physics professor, whether I could acquire this knowledge. He said I should better take calculus. After two and half years of studying algebra to precalculus and over a year of calculus. Here I am. And yet I am so lost all the time.

Anyway, thanks for reading my intro.

Hello everyone, I'm Cosmo. I'm an 18 years old student majoring in physics. I found this forum cause I was searching on Google if it's common for physics student to feel like they're in the wrong major in the first semester cause it feels like too much for me to learn the materials even the ones that are considered as "basic math" or "basic physics", I've initial fascination with the universe's mysteries and it disconnect with the reality of intense, foundational mathematics courses required...
