/sci/ - Science & Math

Alright /sci/, here's the deal.

I graduated HS a couple months ago and I'm about to do an integrated master's in physics in one of the top schools in my cunt. I live in india though so the school is only like 400 on Nature Index.

I'd like to move to a firstie cunt as soon as possible after uni ends, and I want to get rich. I can learn physics on the side as a hobby.
I've identified quantitative analysis and management consulting as the two best options for me. IT jobs don't seem interesting even though I'm a /g/-tard and I like tech.

I'd appreciate it if anons could post about how they became a quant or an MC guy after getting their physics degree. What would you have done during undegrad, in hindsight? Do you like your job?
Getting a physics PhD seems like a lot of wasted time if you're not going to do something physics-related in the end.

Also, I've heard that the US is terribly difficult to move to. Are all anglo countries like that? Any advice on moving to a firstie cunt from a thirdie shithole would be nice too. Government here is becoming more like China with every passing day.

Should I just fuck off with my stem undergrad degree and become a code monkey? They get paid so much money and can even get remote jobs.

x20 equals x10x2 but x20 doubles the effort to achieve x10 while achieving x10 and then a x2 is far more likely than achieving a x20
