Question for the physics majors here - what are/were your favorite electives? Need to pick some for this semester and can't really make up my mind, would love to learn from your experience.
Don't give a fuck about easy/useful, looking for something interesting.

What can you choose from?
Lagrangian Dynamics has been my favourite so far, but I'm taking QFT this semester and I'm fucking excite

My favourites were analytical mechanics, quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics
But I assume all of these are mandatory given how fundamental they are

There are plenty of options (that's the problem haha). The main ones I've been considering are:
>intro to general relativity
>quantum information theory
>hamiltonian chaos
>classical field theory
>group theory in physics
We actually do have courses on QFT, but I think it would be cooler to study classical fields. What do you think?

yeah, they're all mandatory...

Nuclear physics, fluid dynamics, chaotic systems.
Core stuff can seem a bit repetitive and boring after a few years so I'd suggest picking something unusual/unfamiliar.
