Hi guys...
I am starting university in about two weeks.
Last year my physics teacher was very good, and he caused me to be interested in physics.
I started reading Feynman and he also made it sound really interesting.
My parents are programmers so it was assumed I will study that. But I felt no particular passion for it (admittedly, I didn't program much) so when I had to choose my major, I chose Physics with a minor in programming.
But now, I am registering for classes and I am so so scared.
I feel that I am too stupid for physics and I'm going to fail.
When I told my teacher I might sign up for physics he was happy but he said "remember, it is a very hard major" and I feel like he meant it is too hard for me.
I don't know what to do, I don't know how to relax.
I had a good grade in Physics but of course it wasn't university level!
How can I succeed in this degree? Please help!
*When I read reviews of previous students at this university, they all say it was very hard, someone even wrote it was "hell". I am scared to death. I feel like computer science could be way easier but I can't change my major at this point anymore. And I feel like maybe studying something just because it's easier is not so good.
