Hello,

I just recently re-discovered my passion for physics. My question is, is it too late for me? I am just turning 33. Conceivably I could finish my b.s. in 3 years, and then would want to go on to graduate school. I would like a PhD, but I am starting to get the feeling that I would be happy with a masters, just so I can have conversations with other physicists?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Regards
