Hello there,
This is my first post in this forum. I am looking for a phd in Physics for the next year and i would like to ask some questions. I know exactly in what area i want to work, so i have started to search for professors in this field and sending them emails for asking for a position. The thing is that I don't know if i have a possibility to get into a phd based on the competitiveness. I'm searching for universities mostly in Europe countries, like UK, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Sweden etc. I have a bachelor degree with 1st (actually i am at the top 3% of students) from an Czech University and i am at the end of my master degree. My graduate studies have not gone very well, I am at the third year, writing my dissertation and my GPA is 2:1. Do you thing that I have any possibilities for a funding phd ? Also, I have a problem with the IELTS test because my English level is not too good. So how much time do you thing that I have to be prepared for it ?
Thanks, Lyremy
