AI Thread Summary
When choosing a university for an exchange program in mathematical-physics, it's crucial to focus on specific schools and their programs rather than just the country. Both the UK and the US offer varying levels of quality in academic opportunities, and the best choice depends on individual goals and preferences. Consider what you want to achieve academically and personally during the exchange, such as learning outcomes, networking opportunities, costs, and leisure activities. Identifying your ideal experience will help you select a program that aligns with your aspirations.

Here's the deal. I'm trying to choose which university to do exchange. I do research on mathematical-physics. So, which country has the better opportunity for me, UK or US, or even another one.
Yes, I know, this is a very general question, but any advice will be very useful for me.

Hey Rolen.

What is important to you? What do you want to get out of the exchange (both academically and non-academically)?
 
My advice would be to look more at specific schools and specific programs than going by something as general as the country they are in. Within any country there are good programs and not so good ones. And the degree of goodness is a subjective parameter that varies from person to person.

Why not start out by trying to figure out what your best case experience would be in an exchange. What would you learn? What connections would you make? How much would it cost you? What would you do with your down time? Then select a program that most closely matches what you're hoping to get?
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
