I'd say that applies, are you sure you don't suffer from it?

If life uses quantum mechanics, could life be used as a gateway to utilise and control physics on a quantum scale?

Why the fuck is calc 2 so hard. Never struggled in any class but this shit is so difficult. Thinking of switching majors just to not have it required.

Hello, /sci/.
I'm a memegineer in materials, close to the end.
I want to switch to an actual physics or maths master and then do a phD in it.

Do you think I have any chance doing it ? Do you know similar cases ?
What should I be reading to prepare ? I've been reading and doing some exercise of a classical pure math undergrad program and it went mostly well

So is pretty much every high functioning student in grad school on drugs or am i just a pussy? I dont understand how my peers are turned up to 11 all the time. They consume and regurgitate information as easily as they breathe

Brainlet here. Will intelligence-amplifying technology be developed in our lifetime or will I never be able to study physics?

Thank God I'm not a brainlet. If I had an IQ below 140, I would absolutely kill myself.

Reminder if you actually show up to any of these classes besides exam days then you are a brainlet.
