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!
