Came a long way this year, took on graduate-level courses in statistical mechanics, classical mechanics, and quantum mechanics, while working full-time and having no physics undergrad, landed solid A's in each.

@emc2 impression I have from afar is that string theory is make-believe and mostly just interesting math. but its a zombie subject that continues to shamble on haha
