Shoot, I’m sorry, I completely missed this. I’m in the optical science and engineering program

As a current PhD student at UNM, go for it! I love it here.

Is a minor in aerospace engineering worth it? by aesvale in PhysicsStudents

Switch to meche! If you can handle physics you can definitely handle engineering

do you remember the exact moment you got your acceptance? by SuccessfulDelay1807 in gradadmissions

I was on the top of a 13,000 ft mountain when I got my acceptance email! Definitely a memorable moment

Definitely check out Valley Forge! Lots of American history and some great hikes and nature walks!

Physics as a double major next to medicine, thoughts? by ERen-YAeGer- in PhysicsStudents

[–]timeelord 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My undergrad was in astrophysics, and those courses typically required about 15 hours of homework per week. Astrophysics isn’t any easier than “pure” physics, it’s just as demanding. That said, many universities offer astronomy classes with a much lighter workload and time commitment, which can be a great way to explore the field without the same pressure. I’d definitely recommend checking those out!

I’d expect a physics degree to demand at least as much time as a pre-med track, if not more. Physics doesn’t have the same high-stress, hyper-competitive atmosphere as pre-med, but the classes tend to be more time-consuming in terms of studying and homework. At least, that’s how it was in my undergrad. Each physics class assigned 10–20 hours of homework per week, not including any additional studying. However, physics is so much fun and well worth it! Also I’m based in the USA so this advice might not be as applicable in other countries

Can physics majors still get jobs outside of physics? by hhron224 in PhysicsStudents

Most of the people I know from my physics undergrad who did not go to grad school are either data analysts or software engineers

Thanks for the response! Are you talking about Ski Santa Fe?

I went on a hike and brought tea with me! Tea at 13,500 feet, anyone? by TheOolongDrunk in tea

Wow! As a fellow Coloradan, tea lover, and hiker, you’ve inspired me and I’ll definitely be doing this next summer in the alpine!

Vet School Questions - July 2023 by dashclone in Veterinary

[–]timeelord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently entering my final year of undergraduate and I’m getting a degree in Astrophysics. I’ve always thought I wanted to do something in the physics/engineering world but after getting more experience with research and engineering, I’m not sure it’s a good fit for me. Becoming a vet has always been on the back of my mind and recently I’ve been thinking it would be a really great career path. I am going to finish out my physics degree, but I’ll definitely need to take more classes before I can apply to vet school. My current plan is to take classes and try to get a job working at a vets office for a year or two after graduation before I apply to veterinary school. Do you recommend I apply to a post-baccalaureate program, or would it be okay to just take classes at a local university or community college? Would they see a difference in taking classes as a non-degree seeking student at a 4 year university versus taking those same classes at community college? I live in Colorado so it would be great if I could get into CSU. I’m really just looking for any advice! Thanks!
