Hello fellows,

I am planning to continue into graduate school upon graduation, so continuing my degree (physics) into a graduate school degree is what I want to do. I go to UT at Dallas, and my school offers a fast track Master’s program for students who plan to continue into graduate school which allows them to replace senior level undergrad courses with graduate course equivalents that will satisfy both the undergrad hours, and the Master’s degree hours.

My question/request is for any advice regarding what the degree of difficulty difference there is between undergrad and graduate courses in subjects like Quantum Mechanics, Elementary Particle Physics, Plasma Physics, Cosmology, Theoretical Physics, and Astrophysics. Please, any advice would be greatly appreciated and valued regarding the differences between the undergrad and graduate versions of these classes.

-Thank you-
