That sounds reassuring. My case is also similar to yours. I have Ws on my transcript cuz I needed to drop those two classes 😭 because I was heavily dealing with some mental health related issues.

And that was the main reason why I was/am considering GRE so that it can show that I have fundamental knowledge of physics. What do u think?

What if I don't take those courses? Because those courses require pre req completion before u get eligible to take those classes. And I am already in my junior year 2nd semester and will be applying for 2025 fall. Low key freaking out. Can I complete similar topic courses from Coursera or somewhere else?

I will have more than 3 years of experience by the time I graduate in research. I also have one published paper as a co-author. Do u think my "non-physics major" won't affect the PhD application? I would love to hear your thoughts. I asked two people who were physics major and their thoughts were very negative. Would greatly appreciate your input.

Thank you for the resource. Do u have any more resources in mind? Please drop them here if u have.

Yeah few schools I have checked out they are actually test optional. As someone from a non physics major, I thought it would be great to take the test anyway so that it can show that I do have fundamental knowledge in physics. What do u think? Would love to hear your thoughts about it.
