I'm enrolled for 09-10 Fall to begin my BS in physics at UF. Anyone else here on PF going to UF for physics, math and/or computer science?

I am a senior math major at UF. I don't know much about the Physics department, though.

How have you liked it so far?

 

[short circut]

I am probably going there for graduate physics. It loooks like a decent program.

True, I met with a grad student there close to the completion of his PhD, and he loves it.

how does UF compare to top programs like MIT, Caltech, Princeton or University of Chicago? I'm mainly concerned about undergrad for now.

It's a big department and fairly well-respected (like most departments at UF). Lots of faculty and lots of research opportunities.
