I remember reading (it might have been here) that non-US physics programs don't use the Physics GRE for admission criteria. Is this true? Are there other test(s) that are used? What do international programs tend to look at?

A friend of a friend in E. Europe (Macedonia) wants to learn programming (PHP/MySQL) at a business college and hopes eventually to come here in work. It has been my (possibly highly ignorant) understanding that, as far as Western corporations are concerned, diplomas from European are...

On the ISS, special relativity dictates the station's clocks run slower than clocks on Earth because of the high velocity, but general relativity dictates that the station's clocks run faster than clocks on Earth because of the lesser gravity. Which effect is predominant, and do the station's...

I'm currently a sixth form student in Jamaica currently interested in becoming a medical physicist. However I know that before you do medical physics in a graduate program you need to do physics first. I have been doing some research about some good physics schools in North America. Some of...

Hi, I'm just wondering what are the minimum requirements for an international publication/conference/proceedings. E.g. impact factor
