Engineering Physics and Physics

My interest in physics is an important part that identifies me. 3 In physics class, my grades are better than those of my classmates. I can see how the physics skills that I am currently developing will be useful in my 4 professional career. I see being able to communicate effectively using physics arguments I am taught as an 5 important skill to have. 6 The ways of thinking being taught to me in physics will remain with me long after I graduate. The formal and rigorous aspects that I have learned in physics classes are important for my 7 future professional career. 8 Physics classes are needed for other courses in my future studies. 9 It is important to learn physics to find a better job. 10 Physics
