Schools Prepare for University Application in 2 Months

AI Thread Summary
With university applications approaching in two months, the individual is facing the challenge of narrowing down their interests to a single focus. They express a desire to pursue multiple fields, including music, art, film, architecture, engineering, chemistry, physics, law, and the game industry. However, they have come to understand that it may not be feasible to pursue all these interests simultaneously, especially given the constraints of university programs in Canada. The discussion emphasizes the need for prioritization and decision-making in selecting a career path.

In two months, university application will start. So I have this little time to decide what to do.

I don't think it is a possibility to do everything I want so I have to narrow it down to one.

What can I do?

Well, it would be really awesome to do music, art and film. But I also really want to do architecture and engineering, chemistry and physics. Law is also something I have been contemplating. As well as something in the game industry.

I live in Canada so I always thought I'd be able to do them all until someone told me I can't ( and I realized it as well).
 
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
