Is Particle Physics the Right Path for Me?

How did you find PF?
I found this website via Google search.
Hello,
I'm Bertram and I'm in my last year of school and I would like to study physics, I really like particle physics from what I know.
I'm here to connect to other scientists or students, but also to learn more about the subject, common problems and the way of precise articulating.
Have a nice day, Bertram

The nice thing about physics is that it forms a very coherent collection of knowledge. This means that specalizations do not require vastly different skillsets. So learning well any particular aspect will allow you to be conversant in them all and changing specializations for a good practitioner of the art is not that painfull. So learn as much as possible and as broadly as possible at the start. This is easiest if you are having fun. And always learn more math than is necessary.

Thread 'Hello world!'

Hello there, and nice to meet all of you! My name is Olga, I am from Russia. I have a PhD in laser physics, and I work at the local university. I study chalcogenide lasers. I am a pure experimentalist, and I love working with my hands, et cetera, and I do math only when I have to. Sometimes I work with biologists. I do nothing exciting in research, and after my defence, I hardly can call myself a scientist because we have a lack of financial support, and most of my time I spend on teaching...
