I am currently in high school and am decided what career to pursue. I shadowed a medical physicist for a day and found it to be quite interesting. After doing more research I discovered that usually an undergraduate degree in physics is needed to pursue further studies in med phys. I am taking AP physics now and am doing pretty well <80%. I enjoy physics but find it to still be a bit of a challenge! It is all algebra based, and I will be doing my first calc class next semester. What i am wondering is what is first year physics in university for a physics major like? Is it insanely hard? and hard to get good grades in? I have heard that once HS students start to do calculus based physics it becomes easier. I do not want to major in physics and hate it. I believe that if I majored in physics and worked hard i could do well. Any thoughts would be appreciated...
