AI Thread Summary
A student in Australia is entering 11th grade while pursuing a Bachelor of Psychology, which they plan to complete in one year due to prior knowledge of the course material. The student expresses a strong interest in mathematics but is enrolled in psychology because their current university, affiliated with their high school, does not offer natural science degrees. The main question raised is whether, upon completing the psychology degree, they can apply to another university for a different program without finishing high school. The discussion invites insights on the feasibility of this academic transition.

Hi,

I am a student in Australia about to enter into the 11th grade (ie the 2nd last year). I too am starting a bachelor of psychology. I have already learned most of the course and so intend to finnish the course in 1 year through acceleration. But my question resides with another problem.

My real passion resides with another field, mathematics. Because the university i am at does not have any natural science degrees (ie BSc) i chose Psychology. I am at this university because it is attached to the high school and so they have let me start the degree. As i intend to complete the degree in 1 year i will still have 1 year of high school to complete.

Now, the question is, if i have a Bachelor of Psychology at the end of the year, would it be possible to just apply to another university (at the end of the year) and instead of finishing high school would I just be able to start at the other university?

I really appreciate all comments and the time you have dedicated to reading my post!

Thread 'Where did all the “fundamentals-deepening” master’s programs go?'

I’ve been looking through the curricula of several European theoretical/mathematical physics MSc programs (ETH, Oxford, Cambridge, LMU, ENS Paris, etc), and I’m struck by how little emphasis they place on advanced fundamental courses. Nearly everything seems to be research-adjacent: string theory, quantum field theory, quantum optics, cosmology, soft matter physics, black hole radiation, etc. What I don’t see are the kinds of “second-pass fundamentals” I was hoping for, things like...

Thread 'Applied Math PhD candidate but I hate group theory'

TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
