Which Physics course is the best?

After class 12th science, someone interested in Physics can either go for tech courses like BTech or BSc in Physics. BSc in Physics is more inclined towards academia and research areas. BSc in Physics is more of a theoretical approach towards physics concepts, though it does consist of some lab work. BTech would be more practically extensive in that area. Read more - BSc in Physics

What requirements are needed to become a Physicist?

Complete your BSc, MSc and then join a PhD program. There are entrance exams that you will have to clear at every stage. For example, if you want to go abroad for your PhD then you will have to clear GRE. Other than that, the main requirement is interest in physics. There are different styles and types of intelligence which can all contribute to Physics. Physicists are broadly divided into experimentalists and theoreticians. Which path you want to choose is something you can decide when you join your PhD. Career as a Researcher can be stressful, comparatively low paying and carries higher risks of mental health problems.
