ACADEMIC ADVICE

  • This has become our largest and most active forum because the physics GRE is just one aspect of getting accepted into a graduate physics program.
  • There are applications, personal statements, letters of recommendation, visiting schools, anxiety of waiting for acceptances, deciding between schools, finding out where others are going, etc.

ACADEMIC ADVICE

Post by vishnusiva004 » Fri Sep 18, 2009 8:00 am

Hello guys . . .

I am final year undergraduate student. My branch is 'Electronics & Communications'.

I am gonna start my Masters in Electronics in a few months.

I am thinking applying to Physics Graduate Program @ MIT after the completion of my masters.

Does MIT or any other famous college take students who already have Masters into Physics Graduate Program ??

they do take. but i don't understand your plan. if you are interested in graduate program in physics then why are you doing your masters in electronics? you have to take the 2 yr physics grad courses again once you enroll, before staring your PhD work. and why only MIT? you should preferably have research exp in physics for going to the top schools..
