  Hi, great question! I would say the best advice is to remember that physics isn’t always hard, it just often looks hard. When you have a hard complex problem to solve, don’t panic or lose heart if it seems too much. The most important skill you can learn, and the most valuable thing you would get out of a physics degree, is knowing how to look at a big complex problem and work out how to break it down into lots of little problems that you can solve easily.
