Key areas of Physics:
Physics is the study of matter, energy, and the fundamental forces of nature. It seeks to understand the underlying principles governing the behavior of the universe, from subatomic particles to cosmic phenomena. The field encompasses a broad range of topics, including classical mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and relativity, with applications in areas such as engineering, technology, medicine, and environmental science. Some universities may request or accept a portfolio (e.g., featuring research projects, experiments, or relevant experiences) or additional materials that showcase your enthusiasm for physics.
Research Methods in Physics
Experiments: Controlled settings to test hypotheses and establish cause-and-effect relationships. Gathering self-reported data from large groups of people. Observing and recording behavior in natural settings.
Loss Function: This function measures the difference between the network’s output and the actual target. Common loss functions include Mean Squared Error (for regression tasks) and Cross-Entropy Loss (for classification tasks). Some schools may accept AP or IB credits in psychology or related subjects like Biology or Statistics, which can help fulfill introductory course requirements.

A framework where two neural networks, a generator and a discriminator, are trained simultaneously. The generator tries to create data that looks real, while the discriminator tries to distinguish between real and fake data. When a model performs well on training data but poorly on unseen data. Techniques like regularization, dropout, and cross-validation are used to mitigate this. Admission requirements for an undergraduate Psychology program can vary by institution, but generally include a combination of academic qualifications, standardized test scores, and supplementary materials. Here’s a detailed breakdown of typical requirements:
