I got in Physics because I like to learn it. I am not dreaming of a nobel prize or something big about my career. I just want to keep learning and not starve to death (since theoretical physics does not actually pay much in my country & i dont want to leave it). A nobel and a lot of money would be nice but i dont think im smart enough to achieve those. Oh i just wish to be at least as happy as i am right now. Thanks for sharing the brilliant opinions of yours and encouraging us to do so, made me feel nice.

I was 32 when I started school. Never thought myself intelligent. I had to drop out of high school (messed up family issues). I got a GED and went to the army. Had a few jobs, all I loved but knew it wasnt forever. My twins were turning 15 mnts, when one of them was diagnosed with a rare cancer. Being around the research team changed my life, I enjoyed learning science on my own but no formal learning. Now I'm studying biochem, I love it. I work on my profs projects to gain more experience. Moral is, it's never too late to find the path for you. Sometimes you have to try on many hats... (and in case it worried, my daughter has been in remission for a long time now!)

The moment I learnt about Einstein and Co. and physics in 20th century, it felt like this is I want to do. I admired the contributions of these scientists and desired to be remembered and make my own contribution. Though I know now that I may never achieve that(most likely) but the passion still burns. Mathematics and Physics will forever be dear to me. Whether or not it brings in money; whether or not I make scientific contribution, I will forever study maths and physics. 😁😁😁😁😁😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I'll be honest, the physicists of the early 20th century also thought very philosophically and I believed that helped foment the birth of quantum mechanics and relativity. Later on physicists who were very good at calculating and applying the theories to achieve results were needed but that left little room the other type of physicist which is required to solve our current problems in fundamental physics. This is a point made by Lee Smolin in "The troubles with physics".

In all seriousness, though, I think the idea of feeling destined to study something appears everywhere in STEM one way or another. When I first majored in Computer Engineering, I had thought that I had to pursue Computer Engineering simply for being one of the best coders in my high school. Having transferred to University, however, I’d found many a student who had simply surpassed me with their own prior experience, which had me truly ask whether or not CE was for me. I think the real question we have to ask ourselves when pursuing any career is “can I find myself doing this everyday regardless of whether or not I compete against others academically or otherwise?”

Once I conquered chemistry (earned A in both classes for the entire year),I then learned about physics. This was a realm I knew that existed but didn’t exactly know what it consisted of. When I found that it encompassed all the math and science I’ve learned,I didn’t hesitate to sign up for AP Physics. That was when my newfound goal of becoming a physicist began.

This video is so extremely overlooked. It should get way more attention, it uncovers actual psychological situations you have as a physics student. Being "one of the greats" plays some part in wanting to be a physicist, everyone wants to win a Nobel Prize whether they can accept it or not, it's very hard to admit. Expectations and Happiness are closely linked, it's common sense, if you expect everything to go well, and it goes terribly, you become saddened. If you feel confident, and find no success, it might break you. And the thought of "Physics is the only subject really worth studying" is a thought a lot of physics students have constantly, to us, it just makes sense, if you figure out how everything works, you truly win. But that's harshly a personal truth, not a total one. You surprised me, good video.

This explains so well how I felt about physics while studying through high school and college...the ups and downs. I wasn’t so much focused on wanting the fame, but I wanted to know the answers to how the universe works. When my last year of college rolled around, it was a lot harder for me than I had thought it would be, and I didn’t like the lab (I wanted to THINK about physics instead of experimenting). My professors told me I wasn’t good enough to be a theoretical physicist, and I struggled with the math (I now know that others struggled, too, but I thought I was the only one). I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to do that my advisors said was accessible to me (I accepted their poo-pooing of my theoretical ambitions instead of pushing harder). Now, 15 years later, I still don’t do anything related to physics and still can’t find a profession that satisfies.

You better have a deep understanding of the core concepts in physics to be accepted in to a respectable graduate school. Classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, quantum mechanics, general relativity. My friends who have taken the GRE exam tell me these are the most common topics in the exam.

I first became interested in physics when I was 10, mostly learning about astronomy and reading books about space. I was ok at maths but didn't seriously consider being a physicist until I was 12. I think being ok at maths and generally getting good enough grades (to take physics on at higher level at GCSE) definitely helped with my confidence but the main reason i want to study physics remained the same, wanting to understand more. I think kind of knowing I wanted to study physics from a young age definitely helped me focus to getting my goal and the people around me were very supportive. This video is very reliable for me as i really want to be part of a discovery in physics one day, research looks so much fun working with others equally interested in physics.

For me it was the kick that i got when i understood how stuff works. The very understanding gave me a sense of beauty that i normally can't seem to find anywhere else. To be able to dissect a thing to it's fundamental level has it's own awesomeness and greatness and physics does that very well. I fell in love with physics when i found that time is not same for everyone (credits Einstein (i am very grateful to him)). But it all started when i read the brief history of time...my first popular science book that introduced me to a whole new world....and made sure that my life changed forever. What filled me with joy even more was the fact that i felt in a similar manner about nature and fun of finding things out as my hero Richard Feynman did. Physics gave me a purpose and i will give my best to contribute to the the subject that gave me such great joy. Thanks for reading.

For me it was basically in my 11th/17 years old) grade that I decided to pursue physics and it came from the fact that for some reason my brother sent me a link to Brian Greene's documentary "The Elegant universe" and in that documentary they talk about quantum mechanics and how "nobody can understand quantum mechanics" and as a 17 year old teenager I really did take it as a personal challenge to be the first one to crack it. After watching the documentary I asked my teacher about quantum mechanics and string theoy and I was lucky enough to have a teacher who saw my interest in Physics and kinda nurtured it by giving me a book called "A Short History of Nearly Everything" by Bill Bryson. At that point I also started to realize how simply Physics explains everything and for some reason it just started to click although by the end of High School I still felt that I knew nothing about Physics. Though some people would think that not knowing a subject would be discouraging to pursue it further for me it was quite the opposite. Every other field for some reason felt complete and like I was done with it, but not physics, because I had no idea how Physics works and it was fascinating and that's why I went to study it in university. I don't regret my decision at all.

So relatable! I’ve always know that I wanted to be a scientist. When I was a little girl I was such a book worm and I always would watch pop science shows/documentaries, mostly physics related. On top of that, I loved sudoku puzzles and was really good at math. The difference though is that I never really dreamt about making a discovery or winning a Nobel prize. I actually always dreamed about using my talents to help humanity not kill itself by destroying the environment before we get the chance to explore the stars. Also, I believe technology can solve a lot of what’s wrong with the world and I want to be a part of it to make sure that EVERYBODY can benefit from advancement in the future. Not just my hope but my dream.

Oh my gosh!!! I come from a farming town and I have rarely met people who are interested in physics/maths/ or science in general. I remember being younger being so interested in space and all those famous scientists and wanted to be remembered as one. It’s so cool to be able to relate someone. As I said I’m from a farming town I had felt so alone. It feels so cool now to hear that someone has a similar story to mine.

I stumbled across physics for fulfilling a prerequisite for my program of study. I am glad I took these introductory classes and most importantly the teacher makes it much more enjoyable. I have recently applied to another school where my major is now physics. I am not interested in making discoveries. I'm more interested in surviving the workload. My math skills need a little more polishing before I go any farther in physics. If it was not for my teacher the past few semester I probably would not be pursuing this at the college level. Dr. Tibees, Keep vlogging it helps me find a career path that I would be most interested in.

Hi there, I am a painter and left school at 15. I am 40 now and have discovered I love maths and physics. I coincidently have been a menber of brilliant and enjoy it a lot. I look at the stars and want to get closer to them and am hoping physics will allow me some greater insights into them, distance, mass, velocity etc. I think my painting is very authentic and that maths has the same qualities. Identical almost. Thanks for your videos. Kieren.

I am a high school student who wants to be a physicist, and this video really is explaining how I feel. For me, the main reason I want to be a physicist is to try and understand the world better, but also because I want to make sense of it, which really does make it seem like trying to tell a story, or specifically: the story of our entire universe, or at least as much as. After a few years at school, though, I calmed down a bit, and I do recognize the importance of the other scientific fields as well. Interestingly enough, it appears I am especially interested in the borders of the different fields: quantum mechanics, general relativity, chemistry on the very low (connected somewhat to physics) and very large scale (whole complex polymers), biology on the very low scale (like proteins, DNA and ways to make aging slower) and even a bit of very large scale (whole ecosystems). However, as these fields get less and less precise with scale, they become generally less interesting to me, so I suppose physics is still the field I like the most within science.

Please don't forget those of us who have much more humble aspirations then a Nobel Prize! How about teaching highschool or community college level physics as I am? Currently I'm enrolled in The Open University working toward my BSc in Physics. Your channel has definitely encouraged me to pursue this ambition. Like you said, I can not imagine leaving this life without asking and searching for answers to the most profound questions of reality. I hope to project my enthusiasm and curiosity to my future students. What an ineffably wonderous universe!

I’m not in the physics field , I wasn’t ever even good at it but I find many subjects very interesting so I watch your channel regularly. I’m in a field where you also have to feel destined to be in , otherwise there is no way you’ll get into it and it’s music business. People enter this business purely because of their love for music, nothing else , you have to feel that your whole live revolves around it so you have to be a part of it at work too. There’s no random people in this business at all. Where I hear stories about students becoming professors or doctors or lawyers It’s probably easier to find a random person over there than in the recording industry as no parents are pushing their child to work in music ;) it is so hard to get into that you really need to work hard and someone without passion wouldn’t bother that much. In this sense I feel like physics is very similar to a lot of creative fields too and that I think is very beautiful! :)

I feel bad, you quitting your Phd. Such awesome opportunity. But then I watched Freeman Dyson''s take on Phds, and I changed my mind. Maybe some people are not focusing on 1 project for many years. I'd take every opportunity though. I'm into pure maths. I tried taking a Masters degree but I botched it. Now, I'm doing independent research. It is so much fun and easier than physics in a way that you only need a laptop and wifi, pen and paper to do research. Anyways, I'm not good with math but i love finding patterns in numbers. I find them as interesting as dark matter and dark energy. Blabbing here. I enjoy your channel very much. Cheers to maths and physics!

I never knew that people wanted these things out of life. I really want to study chemistry and physics next year, just because it were the only courses that I enjoyed. Like the main things that I love to do in live top 5 is just learning how everything in life works and how things connect with each other. The last few years I got into trading and it involves a lot of maths for now, but I could also use many things out of physics to make models that predict about anything. My reason to study these majors would be because of the joy it gives me.

I can totally agree with a lot of what you've said. My personal strive for physics is just, seemingly, like anyone else: to contribute. I love how physics works and why it works...... then I hit dead ends. I want to solve those dead ends. They're just so cool. I love learning why something does something. I always ask why, I think that's what makes a physicist a physicist, being so stubborn you have to lead to the biggest questions. I think you're definitely correct with the positive feedback loop as everyone says physics is super tricky and that just makes me think "Ha! I understand, I am the best". My desire to study physics isn't a definite point as I've always been quite sciencey, however I knew I wanted to continue physics as far as possible was about a couple years ago, I used to watch the Big Bang Theory, it inspired me, the equations looked cool and the experiments sounded crazy. But my true devotion to physics was probably born from competition. A year ago, my new friend started talking about string theory and what not, I didn't really understand, so I googled. I found so much. I learnt a fair bit. And I've forgotten some stuff. But that was when I had discovered quantum mechanics, general and special relativity, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics and so much more. I couldn't help but want more. I had to learn more. I've now read one of Stephen Hawking's book (got lost at some points) and I'm partially through another now. Not only that, but I'm also gonna be studying my A-levels in about 6 months. Physics, Maths, Chemistry and Further Maths. My aims are to study at Oxford, do optional courses on theoretical physics and quantum mechanics. My aims are high, most definitely, hell, I want to get a PhD. The study of physics is the only thing I want for certain in my future. It is incredible and entrancing. Nothing beats it. I doubt I'll get a Nobel Prize as I'm gonna be doing theoretical stuff, probably, but I definitely wanna be one of the greats, it would be magnificent.

I struggle so much with studying physics right now. It is very demanding and the professors take it as granted that we've all had these great science classes in school, but I didn't really have physics in school. A lot of my fellow students are really good at physics and math and it takes so much more work for me to even pass, and I still failed a lot of my classes in my first semester, and I feel so stupid and dumb and like a loser. I am also very different from the others bc they have always known what they wanted to study, and I come from an art-background. I just don't want to be seen as stupid just bc I have to work harder because of my lack of prior knowledge...

Dr. Becky (astrophysicist youtuber) does a great job at showing how to approach topics by going through the history of research in that area - if you want a good inspiration to how to strengthen this approach. Dr. Jim Al-Khalili is another fantastic example. I think you have a real talent for physics education. THere is an enormous pool of curious learners out here who want to know all about physics but will never be working in advanced studies or research in these fields... We need people like you who have done more than "dip their toes in" to share with the rest of us. THis is an invaluable contribution - never mind being "remembered with the greats" kiddo... be here now! Jocelyn Bell Burnell discovered pulsars... so tell me... who got the Nobel prize for her discovery? Who wants to be honored by dishonorable institutions anyway?

I started by reading on Famous Physicists as well initially too :). I was really interested while looking into Theories of Relativity. Its a visualizing activity to understand Relativity. When I read more on it, the books seemed to contradict from one idea to another so its obvious its not fully understood. So I went into Physics to study such activities and be a part as well. Things kept happening afterwards as well which is long story...

I live in Honduras (which is one of the poorest countries in the world) and I have always had the dream of being a physicist, not because I want to be the next Einstein but because I have an endless curiosity to unluck a universe I know very little of, that is my motivation and has been since I was 4 years old. Sadly things in my country are pretty rough, education is not good and I've been trying to study abroad by applying to scholarships (rn applying to Taiwan). I tried to study something else, electrical engineering, it is a great degree, but I was feeling so empty since I wasn't doing what I wanted, and I related to what you said about physics, it is our way to find a purpose in life, perhaps we are in this world just to live, but as long as I am alive I want to give my life a meaning, and I have found it thanks to science, not being able to take it as a career yet has caused me really dark times, however, I still pursue my dream of understanding a little bit more how things work.

I don't like challenge but I just wanna know everything. I remember being a kid and being super curious about how springs worked. That curios question was only answered in high school and then I realised physics was the key to unlocking knowledge. Also at high school I remember thinking what delineates the different science fields. And then I just realised they're different layers of abstraction and the deepest layer humanity is at is physics. But I studied software engineering because I wanted to get rich.

Very True!! Most of us pursue courses in engineering or pure science in IIT or other reputed institutes of the world because we are good at numbers or understanding complex mathematical based stuff & want to make a name or want to be a contributor in it. But I personally feel Great scientists doesn't pursue these subjects because they want to make a name in it or want to be famous but because their curiosity or want to know more about it drives them more to deep dive in this. It is their pursuit of knowledge that make discoveries or invention. I am not discouraging anyone's motivation but this is what I personally feel.

That’s really relatable I think I have always wanted to be a scientist I just didn’t know the fields and for many reasons. I remember when I was in 5th grade, we had a science class and we were learning about the discovery of reflection of light and there was the picture of a scientist and my friends were laughing about how he looks. I was too chocked and told them how can you laugh about his looks he is a well respected man that made a great discovery, and they were so confused why I was defending him , I told them we should honor him and that one day they will see my picture on the science book and will not laugh then . I will never forget that promise. I think the promises we make in our childhood are really powerful and can give you a big drive. A couple of years past and I always watching KZfaq videos about science reading science articles, or watching documentaries. I was really interested in climate and the atmosphere and decided I would be a meteorologist . Then when I was in grade 8 I watched for the first time in my life a video about a blackhole and my mind was just blown, I felt the biggest excitement I have had in my life I didn’t believe how didn’t I know about this and how didn’t the people around me know about this, I think I watched every blackhole video related at the time and realised how little we know about the universe and how exciting it is , and that moment I decided to be an astrophysicist it’s been five years now and I am senior and I hope I get good grades to go to a physics university.
