Hey y'all...

I'm a college student going into introductory physics for the second time (don't ask about the first semester...basically I had the worst instructor and had to end up dropping the class before I failed) and I really would like to do well. I'm going to also be taking a six unit math course along with physics, so I have to work hard and diligently.

My questions to anyone is really: does anyone know of any good tutoring programs, or private tutors based in San Diego? I really want to get a head start on physics and do exceptionally well...and I know I'll need any help I can get.

If anyone can give me any information, that would be wonderful...thanks a bunch! :shy:

Hold,on,apparently he's willing to pay money.This could be one good thing for the economy who's doing pretty badly due to increased oil price.

Dex: o.O;; wha? I'm really confused...'cause while I'm willing to pay money for an actual tutor (in person, sorry), I'm very much a female. *g*
 
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...
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...
