Am I fucked, guys? I tried making it up at the end, but I fear I screwed the pooch when I was an irreligious hedonist with zero self control.

you save pictures of cartoon children and neotenous women on your computer, watch shows for adolescents while being a young adult, are incapable of grappling with mortality and morality, while being imperious about your decision to join a cult mostly populated by women, the elderly, niggers, spics and koreans which is continuously revealed for being an avaricious den of pederastic parasites. Keep getting upset about it, you'll eventually associate your religion with conflict and either become a fanatic, completely reserved and incapable of bringing it up in polite company or you'll slowly drift to agnostic despair and then lapse back into atheism. I understand why it attracts you trust me, this place shouldn't exist but it does, so don't think I really believe you're stupid. You're just a faggot

Grad schools loving seeing that.

> for Masters program

Master programs are easier to get into but they typically aren't free rides like STEM PhD programs.

I dunno about physics but UMich is a super nice place for math.
There are a ton of top-tier faculty doing cool shit there, the city is nice, climate is good (fuck califags, winter is necessary for survival), and it's actually not as hard to get in as the ranking would imply because the school is really big so they accept a lot of students.
