[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is pretty neurotic and a high scorer on exams but simply lacks extracurriculars. She aspires to be a physicist and in her free time, she’s president of the Quantum physics and robotics team. I’m concerned that without going to a top 20 university, she won’t be able to ever achieve her dream. Looking through the assistant professor page at Princeton, every one of them has a degree from MIT, Stanford, Tsinghua, and IIT, so what chance does she have getting into the professsion?[/quote] If physics is her strength, she should be doing things like USAPhO, and programs like SPINWIP. Has she? If not, why not? Does she study university level physics in her spare time, and if so, which textbooks has she completed? Are you in VA? Which year of school is she in?[/quote]
