I chose to study physics and philosophy for two reasons. First, I wanted to keep my future career options as broad as possible. It is difficult to think of a degree that achieves this goal better than physics and philosophy. Second, I wanted to gain a deeper understanding of how the world works. Both subjects are focused towards this goal.
