So next week I'm going to be starting my 4 years of struggle in physics major and I have plans for it. I know this will sound like a kid who just watched Kurzgesagt videos on Youtube having a daydream, but I will still say it. I am planning to study 8 semester worth of physics courses in my first year of university, learn engineering theories and skills, study programming and compete in ICPC, be great in electrical engineering and make my own humanoid robot, be fluent in Chinese; Japanese; and Russian, have relationships with top international researchers, and lastly create nuclear fusion reactor that generates more power than it consumes. I am aware that it is unlikely for me to achieve my plans. Therefore, I am hoping that this forums can give me the help that I need.

I can't tell if you are serious or not, but whatever your real goals/plans are, good luck and welcome to PF.

Maybe drop the Japanese.

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...
