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 'What are the best A-Level options for someone wanting to do Physics?'

Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
