It is absolutely essential that


a physicist be proficient with
mathematics. To study
physics, the students should
take as much high school and
college mathematics as you
can reasonably fit into your
schedule. Especially, take the
entire run of algebra,
geometry/trigonometry, and
calculus
should be familiar with the
scientific method and the
other tools physicists use.
