Hello everyone, I am a junior undergraduate physics major with a minor in mathematics.

I've been reading physicsforums threads for a while now, and decided I should finally sign up.

I am currently writing a draft for a personal statement; I'm applying to several REUs and will soon post my draft for constructive criticism and advice.

Looking forward to being in an environment with likeminded people!

Thread 'Just an enthusiast!'

Hello fellow Physics enthusiasts, I am an aeronautical engineering graduate (Bachelor's) who is interested in Physics and Mathematics, and I have been re-learning all the basics. I wanted to join a science forum, especially one dedicated to Physics and maths, to apply these subjects to my engineering studies. I hope to learn a lot through this forum. Thank you for your warm welcome.
