I am also looking at the terminal masters programs in the U.K. I know Cambridge has some.
That is a good option to get experience with research and coursework. Also, I think European schools tend to place less emphasis on the physics GRE than US schools, although there’s some variation in that.
Many thanks. Good advice all. The resources you’re suggesting are particularly helpful.
I will hopefully have many of those books in the next few weeks depending on shipping to Beijing.
I am hoping that I can get into a program before leaving the country, but regardless I am committed to resigning and moving by middle of next spring.
