how much CH is that?

Does CH mean credit hours? If so, then 22.

[fluidistic]

...wait...Spring 2010? What happened to Winter?

"Your" Winter, "my" summer :). I'll be taking 3 final exams : physics II and III (introductory thermo/fluid mechanics, intro electromagnetism) and Complex Analysis.

 

[AsianSensationK]

Aaaah right, the Earth's axis is tilted WRT the plane of the ecliptic...I keep forgetting, haha .

 

[sportsstar469]

general chemistry 2 with lab
precalculus

and that's it. i already took all of my electives, and since all sciience and amths are prequisite dependent, i can't take anything else. this summer though ill be taking organic chem 1 and 2 with calculus 1.

 

[lubuntu]

I need to pare it down but here is I will probably take 4 classes from these:

Chem Lab
Physics Lab

 

[UserName13]

What's considered a really full schedule?

(Easing into an Undergrad Physics Program)

 

[pbandjay]

you won't make it. i was taking 21 credits this semester where i was really only doing work for 4 / 7 classes and i couldn't pull it out - i had to drop one.

I have 25 hours this semester, and I am doing fine.

Also doing research in nanomaterials

 

[Quincy]

When is a good time to start looking for research opportunities in college?

 

[ibnsos]

Ego much?

 

[mg0stisha]

When is a good time to start looking for research opportunities in college?

I'm going to be a second semester freshman, and I got a position researching with a professor in astrophysics. I've heard that a lot of research looks great on grad school applications (if that's the route you're thinking of going). I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's never too early to ask, and it's probably better to do it sooner than later if you're looking to get a decent position.

Is starting junior year too late? I'm going to be a transfer student

 

[mg0stisha]

I'm not an expert, as i am just a freshman, but i don't think you can really be too late when it comes to starting research. I'd suggest trying to get a position now if you want one, as more research is better than not enough. Maybe someone with more knowledge will be able to verify/elaborate on this. Good luck!

 

[johnnyies]

Chemistry II
Human Anatomy
Physics: Electricity and Magnetism
Calculus II

 

[Troponin]

Quantum Mechanics
E&M
Advanced Differential Equations
Geometry

I've asked the math department to do an independent study (I asked to do projective Geometry for a few credits), but I think I'm going to be struggling to stay above water as is so I'll probably stick to the above 4 classes.

 

[Troponin]

Solid State Physics
Analytical Mechanics and Classical Field Theory
Quantum Field Theory
Functional Analysis
Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

Is that a graduate level Mechanics course?
I'm in nerd lust either way.

 

[sutupidmath]

(1st semester Junior standing)Mine is:

Honors:Intro to Theology
Modern Physics
Applied Statistics
Foundations of Applied Math (a mixture of vector calculus and complex calculus/analysis)
Honors: Intro to Topology and maybe
Logic(?)

 

[elemental09]

Electricity and Magnetism (Griffiths)
Intro to Quantum (Griffiths)
Physics lab
Intro to Real Analysis (Real Analysis with Real Applications, Davidson & Donsig)
Complex Variables (Not sure which book)
History and Philosophy of Science after 1700 (might drop this)

Should be good, finally getting to the core physics courses.

You know, there is no such thing as talent!

Is that a graduate level Mechanics course?

It is hard to say, we don't differentiate between the courses in that way since our system combine your major+master in a single degree. I think it is on the edge between graduate/undergraduate. And I did take my courses in a bit strange order, really you shouldn't take classical field theory just before you take quantum field theory...

But I am sure that the other courses are grad level.

 

[Landau]

* Measure and Integration [https://www.amazon.com/dp/0521850150/?tag=pfamazon01-20]
* Topology [https://www.amazon.com/dp/0131816292/?tag=pfamazon01-20 + lecture notes]
* Rings/Fields/Galois Theory [lecture notes]
* Complex Analysis [https://www.amazon.com/dp/0387985921/?tag=pfamazon01-20]
* Bachelor thesis (hopefully about the mathematical foundations of Quantum Mechanics)
* Hopefully teaching assistent (introductory analysis)

(Although I am afraid this will be too much, so maybe I can't be taking one of the above, which would be a shame.)

[Drakero]

E&M
Quantum Mechanics

and a 2 credit course about dinosaurs

At least that's the plan so far. Is it unusual to be taking only 12 credits? I was going to add another physics course (statistical and thermal physics) but my adviser advised against it saying that it would be a lot of work.

 

[thecake]

Hmm

I am going to take Analog electronics and Circuits 2! Both with their labs :)
I might also take Instruments and Measurements with its lab :(, and Engineering Economics.
Fluid Mechanics plus AutoCad or Digital systems. And of course Partial Differential Equations! This is going to be a great semeter :)
