I knew there was another oxford physicist on this board.

Lemme guess 2nd year?

>>8728451
There must be more than two.

Yeah, 2nd year. It's a blast... are you a 3rd year or something?

>>8728458
Nah 2nd year as well. Schek was such a memester way better than the other guy.

>>8728532
Get on my DPhil level bois

>>8728532
I bet he's shitposting /sci/ right now desu.

What college are you at?
This year is so much better than last year, feels like we're actually doing some relevant physics, to some extent.

>>8728542
what are you researching?

>>8728660
I'm at Jesus what about you?

This year feels like less of a taster to physics and like a proper course desu.

>>8728542
Also what's research at oxford like?

>>8728673
Wadham. I had my third interview at Jesus. Nice place. Are the tutors any good there?

Yeah, last year was wayyyy too much classical mechanics. Felt like A-level desu. Fairly depressing. I don't like how QM is taught though, not enough room for interpretation.

>>8728816
Jesus is pretty /comfy/ desu

The tutors aren't bad (for the most part). Are the rumours about Wadham being really strict true?

>>8728849
Well we have to do a lot of work, but I dunno what the standard is at other colleges. I heard at univ they only get one PS per week. Usually we get 2.. the past two weeks it's been 2.5. fml. I've pretty much given up on stat phys at this point... wbu? I haven't heard much about Jesus.

>>8728940
We've got 2 as well. Maybe univ are just brainlets...

The last stats ps is a bitch

>>8728960
right? I'm doing it as we speak... fml

Actually I haven't started yet... I will be doing HEP/ experimental particle physics. What's Oxford like as a uni? I'm not that used to posh people.

>>8728458
Not a doctoral student? How sad.

>>8731342
ok

>>8731228
sweet, can't say I know a lot (if anything) about that though.
Oxford isn't actually that posh. The stereotype is completely blown out of proportion. I know around 3 poshos out of hundreds. Most people are fairly normal in that respect (in fact there are a disappointing number of normies but maybe not amongst the PhD students)
