Physics Majors

<p>I actually changed from bio to physics…</p>

<p>What is your regular schedule like if you’re a physics major? </p>

<p>How is music physics in Penn? It’s quite interesting, really.</p>

<p>I’m assuming music physics will be similar to an acoustics/acoustical engineering major which is available at many other schools. In general, a physics major will spend a lot of time in DRL (which you will learn to hate). Expect to get lost in the building at first and then hear all your non-math/science major friends tell you how they got lost/asking you where their class is.</p>

<p>In general though, Physics is a college major which means you can expect around 4 classes a semester (1 less than Wharton/Engineering). However, being a science major, you will have labs (which will probably be shorter than those of bio majors).</p>

<p>lol so i guess it has it’s ups and downs.
I don’t want to hate a class! If i want to do music physics, then, i should apply to SEAS right?</p>

<p>Well, I just checked out the physics website and apparently Penn does not have a music physics undergrad major.</p>

<p>Well. There are other courses I can take so I can do music physics in grad school, i guess. I already do music in high school (and plenty of it, mind you). So maybe i should take plain physics.</p>

<p>Since physics is a college major, you could even double major (taking a relatively moderate courseload) in music and physics.</p>
