damn. That is a lots godspeed. Can you explain to me as if I were a child what it is you do in a quantum mechanics course? Is it mostly just math?
Honestly, all advanced physics courses are mostly just math. Quantum mechanics is just math with more weird symbols, equations that feel like they go on forever, and almost no numbers whatsoever. Also, this is the first class where I actually needed to "use" a computer program to solve a hw problem (I say use in quotations because I found the solution manual to the book and just claimed that I did the problem using a computer... surprisingly, he bought it). It's actually not quite as bad as I thought it would be although I guess the 80% of the class who dropped would disagree
I can go in to advising and get a grad check and apply for graduation (as in, graduating in May) and it’s freaking me out it’s feeling real
Prob a month or two until you get the physical thing. Gotta run processes and make sure you actually did pass the classes and are eligible for graduating.
I hope my teachers know this is my last semester so they will be lenient about the fact that all my work is garbage. God, I need this semester to be over so I can feel like a person again
I dunno if I’ve ever procrastinated more in my life. I still haven’t finished my paper that’s due tonight and I have to go to work so I’m gonna get home later and finish it before midnight and then write my paper that’s due tomorrow. Honestly, I don’t even care about quality at this point. As long as I get it done I should pass so it’s whatever
Working on emails to potential Ph D advisers now. I don't know what's worse, the fact that I'm applying to way too many schools and will probably end up sending >20 emails or that I'm really nervous about the response. And meanwhile all my other work continues to pile up while I work on grad school stuff and complain on here
Lmao. I know I’ve said this a lot, but that was actually the worst paper I’ve ever written. No through line. I have no idea if I did the quotes correctly. I complete pile of shit. Turned in with 3 minutes to spare. I am human garbage. I just need a C I just need a C I just need a C I just need a C
I was really considering doing a PhD... but then I spend the last few months working on my master’s thesis and I can’t see myself ever wanting to do something like that again
I have no fucking clue what to write this paper on. It only needs to be four pages but that’s a lot when the well is dry
I have to write the paper on this book and we need two outside sources. I just found a pretty lengthy essay on it.....but it’s written by my professor lol
