Well you don't actually care about physics that much if you're going to drop when it gets tough. What are things are you studying?

>i wanted to be a physicist
you don't have to go to college to be a fucking physicist. If it interests you, get involved in it. There are endless FREE resources to advance your knowledge of the subject. College is fucking stupid College is fucking stupid College is fucking stupid College is fucking stupid College is fucking stupid College is fucking stupid College is fucking stupid

based. Unless you want to be a physicist for a living don't go to college.
I am a Bsc in physics.

If you aren't spending 3-4 hours a day doing physics problems trying to improve you didn't really want to be a physicist.

Having a lower IQ just means you don't learn as fast, it doesn't mean you are incapable of learning. If you want to do something and succeed, you gotta put forth the right amount of effort.

What. Show me one physicist without at least a physics Masters.
Being interested in physics doesn't make you a physicist. You must also produce things that aren't known and done and it's your task to get it known too.

>implying that paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to jump through nonsensical hoops for 4-12 years makes you a physicist

No, putting the work in does. You don't need to go to college to put the work in. To reiterate: COLLEGE IS FUCKING STUPID COLLEGE IS FUCKING STUPID COLLEGE IS FUCKING STUPID COLLEGE IS FUCKING STUPID COLLEGE IS FUCKING STUPID COLLEGE IS FUCKING STUPID COLLEGE IS FUCKING STUPID

anon what hurts is i spent so much time on it, MUCH more than 3-4 hours, for example this smester i took 4 classes only physics and any non free time i spent is spent reading/solving problems for these. i would unironically solve every problem in the textbook for classes i took. its gotten tough before too and i slugged on, i just feel like at this point my chances at good grad school and a career in physics are fucked and idk what to do..

>>11109881
quantum 2, solid state, mathematical phys, and this one other physics class rn. i do care anon :( im distraught idk what to do. i really really dont want to give it up its just i need money/am probably already locked out of a career in physics

>>11109950
cope

>>11110586
With what? Understanding reality? Being in control? LOL CAN DO

>>11109950
how can i get access to labs? are there free synchrotrons, particle accelerators, and a bunch other billion dollar projects laying around where youre from? also how will i get a free advisor wholl guide me and help me correct mistakes and put me on the right path

Why do you think that studying CS means being a programmer in the first place you fucking imbecile? Is your Uni curricula is so garbage that it makes you take lots of programming classes or something?

>>11111584
first off i know what studying cs means, ive taken multiple cs courses....if ur gonna give the whole spiel about how its just a branch of applied math and programming isnt cs etc etc or whatever save your time, arguing semantics isnt worth it....i know about theoretical cs and our curriculum is literally top 3 in the world, and does require math courses like discrete math probability linalg diffeqs optimization and various others...now what do a vast overwhelming majority of cs majors end up doing? they end up being programmers, which is why i said that. also why i said the money part since software engineers make a good deal of money

>>11111584
also yes the cs curriculum at our school does require a fair bit of programming courses as it should, and as do all other good cs curricula

>observations and experiments are not important in physics
you're larping faggot
