DS will be applying for uni in the autumn. I've been reading a lot lately about how personal statements should focus less on outside interests/other subjects and should give specific examples to support any claims to be 'passionate' etc about a subject.
He wants to do physics. I'm not sure how he can demonstrate his love of the subject. Other subjects are maths, computing and electronics and he's done things like build his own computer. But I can't think of anything specifically related to physics.
One of his brothers does geography and was able to write about his fossil collecting, being a member of the Royal Geographical Society etc.
I'm wondering if there are any physics societies he could join as a 17 year old. Any advice would be much appreciated.
