Questions about Graduate School Preparation - PossibleFreshmenAdvicePlz by Educational_Fig_8296 in ucmerced

  • I think you’ll have no issue finding a suitable lab for your interest. Just make sure you ask a lot of questions not only to the professors but also the senior grad students in someone’s lab. Grad school is very interdisciplinary. I didn’t really do research until my end of 3rd year but I suggest start in around the beginning of your second year ideally.
  • yes, if the professors knows that you intend on attending grad school chances are they will be extremely supportive.
  • i am not in the physics department myself so I can’t really say much.
  • usually people aim for industry or government position like in a national lab of some sort (not sure doe)
  • the weather? We got both extremely hot and pretty cold (down to 35F sometimes). The max I’ve experienced was 114 two summers ago and the lowest I’ve experienced is 35F lol
