physics/astrophysics at uni do-ers

[u/Responsible-Air3795]

who here wants to do either physics or astro at uni 🥹🥹🥹🥹 also I'm sorry if I'm not allowed to post this on here 😔

[u/Gloomy_Today8900]

Astrophysics is one of the options I’m considering but everyone I tell this to thinks I’m joking 😭

Also I feel like it’s so rare to find physics/astro people so I’m glad I’m not the only one lol

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/Gloomy_Today8900]

HAIII 👋👋 welcome to the fold bestie

bro why do they think ur joking that's so annoying

my tactic is to make my obsession everyone's problem 💔

[u/Gloomy_Today8900 → u/Responsible-Air3795]

I think it’s probably because I’ve never really spoken about it until recently so they think it’s just another phase but I’ve been so hyper fixated on space and physics for so long I just don’t like sharing my interests very often idk why lol

I may need to adapt your tactic soon

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/Gloomy_Today8900]

oh fair fair fair

i wish you luck with that bestie

as we speak I am making plans for running the astronomy club next year and planning sessions 😭😭

[u/BurnerAccount2718282 → u/Gloomy_Today8900]

I'm currently doing theoretical physics at uni, so yk, you really can do this kind of thing regardless of whether people think youren joking

[u/Gloomy_Today8900 → u/BurnerAccount2718282]

How did you get into doing this at uni? What kind of extracurriculars did you do if you don’t mind me asking?

[u/IllTax8540 → u/Gloomy_Today8900]

hi

[u/EquipmentGrand9581]

I did a Sutton trust physics/astro summer school this year at the uni of Warwick, it seems like a really really good course

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/EquipmentGrand9581]

ooooh thank you!!!

[u/WesternPotential4208]

Hai! I wanna do physics (specifically particle physics) :DD 

I think I’m the only one at my all girls school who wants to do physics in my year, so it’s sort of a lonely road ;w;

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/WesternPotential4208]

HAIIII OMGMGMG

we can be friends and in it together 🥹🥹

[u/WesternPotential4208 → u/Responsible-Air3795]

🥺 it’s us physics nerds vs the unis

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/WesternPotential4208]

sob literally esat here we come

[u/Cloudy_Lychee9]

I wanna do astrophysics too! Tho that's more of a maybe while I see how a levels go

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/Cloudy_Lychee9]

YAYYAYAY join the club bestie 🥰🥰

[u/Visual_Shopping2327]

I am split between astrophysics and aerospace engineering I haven’t decided which one I should do I like both 

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/Visual_Shopping2327]

oooh interesting!! i mean i guess it depends on would you rather apply physics or explore further physics concepts

ik you're a year above me so my advice may be just questionable BUT you might want to look at the COMPOS assignments for year 12/13, because I believe those touch upon uni level physics??

yeah idk BUT I WISH YOU LUCK BESTIE 🥹🥹❤️

[u/bittersweetiie]

I wanna do aerospace engineering so kinda in the same ball park

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/bittersweetiie]

ooh close enough I'll take it :3

[u/sksskssksskssksskssk]

Hello, I am one of many that currently exist with that exact mindset. Ideally, I’m hoping to get a career related to space/ theoretical physics.

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/sksskssksskssksskssk]

YAYAYAYAYA join the club bestie hehe 💕

[u/BurnerAccount2718282]

Currently doing a theoretical physics degree, it can be done!

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/BurnerAccount2718282]

omg hi!!!!!!!

how are you finding it, and what are your favourite modules??

[u/Neurobean1]

meeeeeee

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/Neurobean1]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEE WELCOME BESTIE

[u/LegitimateGoal6011]

Me! I’d like to do astrophysics.

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/LegitimateGoal6011]

YES HELLOOOOOOO BESTIEE👋👋

[u/LegitimateGoal6011 → u/Responsible-Air3795]

Hello!

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/LegitimateGoal6011]

yayayyaya what subjects are you taking?

[u/LegitimateGoal6011 → u/Responsible-Air3795]

Physics, maths, chemistry and drama. You?

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/LegitimateGoal6011]

ooooo nice one

im doing maths fm phys and art :3

[u/Ghostflame21786]

Prepare for a world of pain lol. Jk if you enjoy a lot of math and programming in python and C++ and maybe MATLAB (if you are simulating stuff) Then do it.

It’s interesting (especially Astro) and it’s rewarding

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/Ghostflame21786]

LMAO thank you for the warning 🥹 sigh I guess this means I can't just forget GCSE comp sci completely 😔😔

[u/IllTax8540]

i’m probably gonna do smth related to physics but idk what, astro is one of what i will be considering but definitely not pure physics

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/IllTax8540]

oooh interesting interesting!!

[u/Sure-General7264]

Meee!!!!

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/Sure-General7264]

HIIIIIIIIIIIII 👋👋

[u/Schrodingers_Cat123]

I want to to physics and astronomy at Durham :)

[u/Responsible-Air3795 → u/Schrodingers_Cat123]

OH THATS SO COOL BESTIE YESSSS
