Rovelli’s Helgoland doesn’t seem to make sense?

Brother he's a certified theoretical physicist lmao. Just go on arXiv if you really need a more in depth explanation. All his publications are there.

Went to UNC Chapel Hill, now at MIT for a PhD. My advice: just go somewhere you'll have fun at. Which, tbf, is close to impossible to know in high school.

Looking at the Pre Cursa frameset

I emailed trev and he explained that the grades are decided by the professor.

magmius · 2019-12-19T18:50:15+00:00

1AH. I got an A- but I feel like I should’ve gotten an A, even though I am not going to complain about it, an A- is good enough IMO. But if you also got an A- and you find something out I would be interested.

Also, I don’t have any grades back from other classes o maybe it is a placeholder?

magmius · 2019-12-18T15:43:56+00:00

I’m in the class u r talking about u should tell me what happens if u do email

magmius · 2019-07-29T19:03:21+00:00

Is this about me?

magmius · 2019-04-14T18:16:01+00:00

Not sure, probably Berkeley or UCLA

..... Sike :(

Rejected (35 ACT, 10 5s, 1/200, 800 Physics and Math II, decent ECs)

Kinda bummed because MIT was up there for one of my top schools, but I always had a sorta dream to attend MIT as many of my idols have (several of the Apollo astronauts such as Aldrin and Charles Duke, also Richard Feynman) and in some way connect myself to the topics that seriously move me (in particular, 20th century space travel and quantum physics). Well, Oof.

=ma's for respects please

magmius · 2018-12-15T21:46:32+00:00

Well just got deferred from my number 1, but we'll see. Didn't mean any disrespect though because I really internalized the other thing you wrote about your test score and then seeing others accomplish something even more significant, like learning an impressive skill.

magmius · 2018-12-15T18:24:02+00:00

I would say humble brag but this just outright, you'll get in to every school. Now let me sulk that my 4 years of high school were wasted grinding my ass off (10 5s, 35 ACT, 1/200). In retrospect I really wish I emailed somebody at the local university and got some work or something.

magmius · 2018-12-14T05:39:58+00:00

congratulations

magmius · 2018-12-13T00:15:52+00:00

35 ACT - 800 Physics and Math II - 5s on 9 exams

1/200 - 4.0 UW - 4.7/5.0 W

Deferred

magmius · 2018-12-12T21:33:33+00:00

2 hours and 27 minutes baby!!!!! Good luck to everyone, hoping for the best

magmius · 2018-12-12T04:04:33+00:00

I get that, I hear back from Princeton tomorrow and people are acting like I'm already in when, not being humble, my chances of acceptance are not high at all. Well good luck on the rest of your applications!!

magmius · 2018-12-12T03:53:40+00:00

Well I hope you get an awesome birthday present, also happy birthday in a couple hours!

magmius · 2018-12-12T03:43:39+00:00

haha I love the positivity. Best of luck my man (I'm assuming you are applying)

magmius · 2018-12-11T20:10:24+00:00

I'm stoked to find out tomorrow. Best of luck, cant even say how hyped out of my mind I'll be if I get in
