That looks like a heavy course load. Prepare to have to study every day and make sure to keep up with your reading. If you can, start studying early before the semester starts.

not a bad schedule if u ask me. the history of math thing is odd but im supposing u need 2 have some other out-of-program courses and whatnot.

>thermo
For thermo, its a really different sort of course and I suggest either of the two books (whichever u can find desu) Schroeder's Thermal Physics or Carrington's Basic Thermodynamics.

>optics
no idea, havent taken it except ive had some experience with optics in some gay labs, not that bad since the derivations of some laws are cool

>math methods
any math methods book will work; penrose's road to reality or wtv is pretty based

>modern physics
essentially this is special relativity and quantum. Maybe im alone on this one but I found Morin's Introduction to classical mech (last couple chapters but whole book is amazing) will do the job. as for quantum u can use what everyone does which is tippler modern phys 6ed or u can find the waves book draft with an into 2 quantum on Morin's website.

>history of math and problem solving
no idea, all u need 2 know ig is euler and archimedes were literally gods (maybe maxwell or gauss as well)

Yeah I'm already self-studying for the material as of now, months ahead of time.

>>11565711

I felt like tacking it on out of pure interest. It'll be nice to have a writing oriented class to balance things out.
