AI Thread Summary
Leo expresses a keen interest in learning about logic, physics, and math after discovering the Monty Hall problem through the movie "21." Despite being in Grade 8, he seeks guidance on where to start his studies. In response, suggestions include focusing on school textbooks for mathematics and exploring popular science books that explain theories without heavy mathematical content. The discussion also notes that the thread may be better suited for the "academic guidance" section of the forum, highlighting the community's willingness to support young learners.

Hello. I'm Leo and I Know I probably won't be as welcomed here but ever since I found this place after searching up the Monty hall problem in the movie 21, I was extremely interested in this place and wanted to start learning about Logic, Physics, and math. Although I'm still in Grade 8, and in High school, If anyone would be So kind to give me a place to start with?
Thanks :)

I don't know if there are any better options for an 8th grader than to just study the school books (on mathematics). I suppose you could read some popular science books that try to explain a theory without using mathematics. There's a section of this forum that's dedicated to science books. You should be able to find some recommendations there.

This thread should probably be under "academic guidance". I will request that it be moved there.
 


Thanks, Greatly Appreciated. Guess I'm still too Young. XD
 

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...
