Midterms are for squares, Kev-Kev. How is medical physics (mediphysics, if I may [that's a joke]) treating you?

[speviroth]

Treating me pretty well, in a have-yet-to-take-any-medically-relevant-courses-yet way. My quantum physics and E&M classes are pretty rockin' (great professors, one's Australian and the other looks like Bill Nye). I'm taking a class on the philosophy of science which sounded cooler prior to taking it, but the professor's crazyish, which is fun. Also, Optics, which is a 400 level class (highest undergrad-level) taught at a 200 level. So I'm sporting a 50% awesome rate this semester. How's the Academy(?) going?

Nice, good to hear. Speaking of optics, I was reading an article about metamaterials the other day, which apparently are materials with a negative refractive index, making them some kind of invisible. It was crazy in an I've-never-taken-an-optics-course-and-had-no-idea-what-I-was-reading way. "The Academy" is insane in a very stressful way. my major is currently electrical engineering and I came in with the intention of going to flight school but I very well may do my 5 year commitment and then go to med school. It's something I'm seriously considering but things change and I have a LOT of options post-Academy so yeah.
