I'm considering a degree in some sort of physics, possibly Astrophysics, but I was already accepted at a fairly nice college nearby for game design and development. I applied on early admissions because that was the only way to get in, according to representatives I spoke to. My friend informed me that because I was accepted on early admissions that means that I have to remove all my applications to other college and if so I'm screwed because I cannot afford to go to that school questioning my degree.
My main reasons for taking an interest in physics is because I want to know how the universe works, where it came from, and where it is going. Plus I don't feel that extreme "push" for game design that I used to. Probably the main thing that scares me about majoring in physics is the work load, I have been pretty relaxed in high school. I had a lot of study halls my first two years and now in my senior year I'm finally trying to apply myself and I'm taking more AP classes. It is supposed to prepare me for college but it just doesn't feel like college. I don't know if I would be mentally prepared for the workload that would come with a degree in physics. The largest problem being that I haven't developed good study skills or good time management yet.
In short; Is early admissions a "binding" contract? How overwhelming is the workload in the physics degree? And what are some good study habits/ time management skills that you have?
