In summary, it is possible to self-study physics after pursuing a different degree. It may require a significant amount of dedication and effort, as well as access to resources such as textbooks and online courses. However, with determination and a strong foundation in mathematics, one can potentially learn and understand the principles of physics on their own. It may also be beneficial to seek guidance from experts or join study groups to supplement self-study efforts. Ultimately, self-studying physics can be a challenging but rewarding experience for those interested in the subject.

Hi everyone!

I am a self learner in physics. A long time ago I chose the wrong degree and studied Economics. I am now trying to right that wrong by studying physics in my spare time.
