[Kiran The King Kai]

Kiran, from what you have said working in Academia (a University physics department) would be ultimate goal. I would see a Masters degree as a stepping stone. If you impress the University you could probably continue indefinitely doing research in any number of fields. It therefore probably does not matter which field you do your Masters in, you could probably switch at some point. However, you have to impress people with your ability. If you are very, very good technically then it should be OK but if you are not excellent, and there will be plenty of competition, you may still progress by having other skills. Research positions at Univerities often come with teaching responsibilities of some sort so you may need to polish your relationship skills more than you think.

You are probably aware you are never going to get rich with this career path :-) Physics is interesting but rarely lucrative.

does it full fill my daily needs ? first thing is does it fill my belly ?
do I get good job other than lecturer in physics ?
I don't want to become lecturer !
I can be excellent if university is really good.

Kiran, there are not many well paid jobs doing interesting research in Physics. If you want to earn reasonable money you end up in a field like electronics or semiconductors (like me). From what you said you are more interested in the "sharp end" of physics research. There are jobs at places like CERN but the pay is not great and the competition high. Plus the majority of the work there will involve the engineering rather than research.

You reckon you can be excellent if the University is good so you need to get into a good University. I'm afraid to say that not all the Universities in the UK are of the same standard and there is huge competition for the good ones - even for studying Physics.

I will do any thing for my lover and girl friend physics.

but does Physics fill my belly ?

Calculus 101, 102, 103, Basic Physics 101, 102, 103 etc.
What is this ?

Those are courses. E.g. the calculus sequence is broken up into three courses which are often called, in order, "Calculus 101", "Calculus 102," "Calculus 103". Basic physics is the same way.

So you're going to complete your bachelor's degree in 2010? If you don't know what you want to focus on by now then nobody can tell you that. Only you can do that.

Ok now I understood.

try to understand I am making rude statements.

You are saying that you are, intentionally, making rude statements? If so, why?

Trying to explain. "Don't be stupid" is rude ?

Yes.  The context in which you used it was what it made it rude.

He has Isolated Nature . Physics and math as different things ??

Hello scientificboysclub, how have you been? You've been very quiet L( hope your ok!
