Self-assessment is a common tool employed by career counselors to help anyone at any career stage. If you are thinking about becoming a physics major, or going to graduate school, but aren’t 100% sure about whether or not either is good for you, a self-assessment can help you decide.

Ask a Counselor
If these simple questions spark your interest in physics, the next step is to speak to a career counselor, who can facilitate your assessment of your career interests. You may also want to speak with a physics teacher/professor at your school/college.
