Bro this is my dream learning environment. Imagine just being sorrounded by these passionate people working and researching on their respective academic fields, it's the most inspiring and motivating place I could ever asked.
I love how you added some facts about your advisor, as well as that person who won a Nobel Prize... I often walk around campus and am like "holy crap, these people really discovered X and got Y". I attend MIT also completing a PhD, so right down the street :)
Hello @Nicole Coates. First of all, thank you for writing this comment because it weirdly makes me realise that the people who get into academic programs at places like MIT are also 'normal', I apologise for it sounding very vague. I wanted to ask, what are you pursuing your PHD in? I ask because I'm in my Junior year at school in India and am trying to talk to physics and/or engineering students to decide where and in what to apply. I hope its not an inconvenience.
"But at this point I'm still very confused about what they're trying to say, but doing physics is really about working through that confusion until you figure out the answer." I really love that you said this. As a person that tends to be very self-critical, it's often hard for me to imagine that Harvard students or Nobel winners or people at the top of their field ever feel confused at a problem or don't know where to start. I sometimes feel as though people in those positions are always on top of it and I'm just built different and not as smart. I know it's silly, but it's where my mind goes when I'm getting down on myself. So thank you for this insight into your studies. It reminds the rest of us that even the smartest and most capable among us get confused or stuck and to keep going. Never give up.
I actually liked/loved the back story you told about crossing the bridge from Cambridge to Harvard. It was very inspirational and sounded like there was a lot of emotions involved in that journey. Also about your watch it's so amazing that you associated that expensive watch to a priceless memories of you working so hard for it with your father. This kinda tells things which are earned with a commitment and hard work are more precious because memories and journey is associated with them not necessarily because they are expensive and luxury...it's really inspiring you enjoy and take pride in wearing that. Wishing you tons of luck for your future endeavors 🙂.
Also it's highly inspirational that you read, reply and like each well almost each and every comment. Not to mention having a very focused and committed daily routine. Good luck for your future.
This video is so inspiring yet so terrifying for me. Academia is the one thing I’ve never been able to dedicate myself to, I have always put in the exact amount of effort needed to pass my classes, never an ounce more. When I graduated and started working, that was when I truly felt motivation to get work done. I can never feel the same way with formal studying, and it’s been haunting me cause I have been meaning to take my Masters, but I for some reason have always dreaded putting in work into my studies.
@@quantum_boyHi I have written a thesis on Teaching and Educational development and want to send it to the executive dean of Harvard school of education. Can one please help me in this regard. Thank you.
This is probably my favorite of all Harvard videos I’ve seen so far!! Absolutely love it! And you are really impressive. Keep up the great work! You can be so proud of your accomplishments!
My sister, whos 6 years older than me, completed her PhD in biochemistry at Harvard. She lived very near Harvard Square and, when I visited her, I would go through that exact same T stop. Brings back memeories.
This video was nothing how i expected it to be. The usual a day in my life videos simply show their routines which most of the times aren't a great source of motivation. But this video is more than just a usual day in my life. The deep narratives about smallest of things makes it even better. You've gained a lifetime follower. :)
Finally someone who shares a bit about what they're actually doing in their research, it's something I always missed on other channels with phd vlogs... Love to see more of that!
Hey man, I just wanted to say that this is really inspiring to me man I'm going to A university online, work in construction and I'm trying to switch from old habits for good! and focus all of what I am on my goals and the vision. How focused and clear headed you are I don't know you man but you have my respect. God bless.
Great video mate! No bs edit or bs music, straight to the point, with very inspirational stories and educational. I worked very well on my A Levels but now that I'm on my 3rd year aeronautical engineering degree, things are getting tough and I want to give up! Sometimes I wish I could afford and be intelligent enough to go to these nice universities! Anyway, good luck to you all out there!
Thanks for reminding me of my dear Cambridge and Harvard Square! I was there not to solve enigmatic quantum physics problems but just to humbly improve my English. For three months my wife and I've lived on Lee Street and went on foot to the school at Harvard Square under the incredibly blue sky of the New England! Thank you for making me remember such special moments! You are a talented filmaker!
The moment you said “theoretical physicist” I widened my eyes and immediately liked and subscribed, then promptly started writing this comment. I am an aspiring theoretical physicist (majoring in astrophysics right now) and I am extremely happy to see a DITL of someone who is on a similar path I hope to be traveling on one day!
I'm too bored and this video came out all of the sudden. Watching this sort of "Day in my life" video makes my mood somehow, become exciting! Not to mention, being a student or teacher otherwise in Harvard is an opportunity that can be kept as treasure. It was a nice video, indeed. Keep up the good work!❤️
This video made me realize that the hustle of every day love and the hight stress job I work in is taking away from those moments of clarity where I used to enjoy the learning process. I need to find time to give myself a chance to learn something new.
As a guy who wants to go to Harvard this was such a motivation to me I'm still in my senior year of high school and I'm working hard towards my dream just like you 🔥
I’m in Veterinary Medical school. Thank you so much for reminding me good things in life will never be easy, yet achievable and worth every second to get there.
Such a wonderful university. It has a really beautiful campus, and being around with the brilliant students is just better than anything else. I loved the classrooms, and its environment is like the best place to study in. Sometimes I even dream of studying in Harvard.
As a Mainer let me just say I hear and RESPECT that New England accent, my man. And as a final year law student, let me congratulate you on being in a PhD program. We're both studying our way into careers that will make our families proud. We got this. 🤘Awesome vid!
Your videos are awesome, they inspire to work hard just like you! I'm from Russia and there is no opportunity to get into Harvard due to the political situation, I guess. So I'm a little upset because of it, but your work helps me believe the best, so thank you so much!
my routine as a biophysics student (master degree) and physics undergrad.. wathching PhD life on youtube and found that everyone take the physics related major too 🙃, you've got one more subscriber
Your video is absolutely beautiful and inspirational. I congratulate you and your peers on your success thus far and wish you the very best in your future endeavors. Hard work does, in fact payoff and there are no shortcuts in order to get to where you are. I am a firm believer that people who suround themselves with brilliance will be much more motivated to become just as brilliant as those around them. Your VLOG serves to inspire others to work hard to achieve similar goals. You are well positioned to make a positive difference in this world. Well done!
To all the medic students out there.. even if it’s nursing assistants, the janitor even… let’s f’ing get it!!! Grind until you reach your dreams, I’m with you 💪
I'm doing my PhD in Physics at Humboldt Universität Zu Berlin and I walked around the places where Max Planck, Einstein, Born, Wien, etc, worked and I felt the spirit of them. I remember writing an article in the main building 🏫 where you can see all the photos of all great scientists and received an email from Royal Astronomical Society accepting a paper that I submitted 2 months ago. That was magical 😊.
I run a business and I am a single dad of a 3-year-old full time. I am attending a community college full-time to get my associate's in music and performance and after that, I will go to get my bachelor's in music therapy. I will say that living a healthy lifestyle by working out and eating right is one of the most important things when it comes to focusing on your work. It was refreshing to see a video like this. Keep on doing what you are doing! Best of luck to you with your studies!
What a cool experience, and congratulations on being able to achieve that dream of yours. I’m interested in pursuing a PhD in Harvard as well, but not just yet… Enjoy your journey!
I have been mesmerized by what I saw in this video. I know that you have been working really hard for your entire life to be a part of this environment but it is a heartbreaking fact that you have to have certain "qualifications" to be a part of the Ivy League Colleges. Anyway, your storytelling and editing in this video are beautiful just like the content. It is very inspirational video and I wish you good luck and the best in your journey in life...
As someone in academics I find it surprising that you have the time to make videos, teach, and work toward a phd. This seems too chilled out to be frank, part of the phd process is working hard & being highly focused
I was just thinking the same thing. This video is actually more a tour of the campus and nothing else. I remember when I was a law student I could never study in a library, I just couldn't concentrate with the people around me, someone is eating, others getting up to use the bathroom, others to get coffe....Later on when I went to master studies I studied at weekends when I was home and I wrote both of my master thesis in my room surrounded with books. PhD thesis was the same, I could never concentrate at work.
You are such a motivating person! it's so weird seeing so much negativity in this comments section. They're either focusing on insignificant things or attributing a false personality to you when you're such a humble, kind and loving person who worked hard for everything you got. Needless to say they're not good at hiding their jealousy for someone so intellegent, secure and fit, I hope you don't let their projected insecurities dim your day. Cheers!!!
I loved this video. There was no fluff, no crazy editing, not much music. Very simple, straight to the point, and hoenst. And I don't really see all of those things in Day in the Life videos.
Thank you for showing life as a graduate Harvard student. Most videos are of undergrads and they’re repetitive. This is refreshing to see because most of us didn’t have the chance to attend Harvard for undergrad.
What a beautiful video, I keep mementos from all my previous "slave-labour" jobs as I reminder for where I started. I'm About to finish my first year in undergrad physics and I still hope I can do post-grad at my dream university - Cambridge. Its always the little motivational things that make you push yourself further.
Hey man, I just wanted to ask where are you doing your undergrad from because I'm in my Junior year at school in India and am trying to talk to physics and/or engineering students to decide where and in what to apply. I hope its not an inconvenience.
Woah you're doing quantum computing too, that's awesome. I have this great opportunity to do research with professors at UCI regarding quantum research and I am so excited. I'm a bit nervous since I'm still a high schooler, but I hope to follow your pathway.
As a PhD student in the life sciences, this is more like "A Saturday in the Life of a PhD student" 😆 Great video btw. Hope you create more esp about the ins and outs of your specific PhD work
Your videos are great! Been following you all semester as I got accepted into the rank 1 dental programme in the world at Karolinska. They really bring some weekly joy. I can really relate to being surrounded by great achievers due to the nobel comittee working at my university. It really inspires me to do better everyday. Keep making awesome vids✌️ Also that smoothie looks delicious, do you mind sharing the recipe?
WOW. This is about the 15th video I’ve watched of yours; if it was my first, I wouldn’t be here. You have progressed so much with your style, I’m truly captivated by your life; the way you lay it out for us gives me feelings of compassion. I want to dislike you; but I’m only envious and inspired. I wanted you to show your face, but now I hope you never do for fear that I will change my perception of you. I want to know you.
I went to Harvard for my masters and I can tell you that MANY of the students I knew were not that bright. They are just amazing at memorizing and taking tests, but actually not bright.
@@user-pd1lt1ub6z I should add that my professors were legitimately brilliant people and I loved being in their classes. I don’t think a majority of them are far left, but the more conservative ones just avoid politics. My colleagues, however, were nuts.
now i realized that College life is more joy and fun if you have a friend just even 1, i mean you can still go to school without friends but, it will be better if you have one because it will make you more happier
I cannot fathom the mental strength and of course the brilliant mind to endure such rigorous academic demands. I am doing Ed.D in University which is outside top 300 in US and I am exhausted already. I pray you will do well, finish strong with least stress.
These people: Spend 60 hours per week studying non-stop about high sophisticated and useful topics. Me: Spends 4 minutes a week studying for a high school Junior quiz and hopes that I get a good grade.
Today was the first time I ever watched your video and it's truly inspiring. Funny fact is that I'm struggling right now with a lot of issues regarding work and studies and most of them lead to the one equation: should I push this hard on working to be one of the guys of the academic field? Or should I stick around and keep going as hard as I can to see a dream come true? I know what I want but sometimes you just wonder if you're in the right path. Anyway, thank you for sharing your history. I wanna come back here a few months forward and say that I didnt give up and the game still goes on with our daily accomplishments.
At no point in this video did being a Harvard student even come into play. Anyone could have eaten, gone to Harvard campus, and read a research paper in the library. For free. 🤣
"Hard work is a choice". Genuinely curious, but do you think hard work is a choice for everyone? Because there are people out there with limited resources and opportunity that have to break their back at their jobs to barely stay alive.
People will say anything to excuse their laziness, he was raised at a farm, his father is literally a construction worker, "breaking his back to barely stay alive". If anything that makes his story even more amazing,
Yea. Because those people CHOOSE not to work as hard as him. He stated multiple times how much he wanted to be in this field and how he strived to make his way to where he is now. Not everyone wants to be a theoretical physicist. People CHOOSE to do what they want to do in life. Just because he got lucky getting into Harvard doesn’t mean he’s “privileged” and just because he did backbreaking work to achieve a goal for himself doesn’t mean he’s “privileged”
You are amazing man 👊 i believ one day i walk around this compus for studying. I proud with you. Thanks for sharing this. I hope you are having fun this.

Your videos are incredibly well-crafted and enjoyable. Congratulations, sir!
I love this video😆❤
WOW. This is about the 15th video I’ve watched of yours; if it was my first, I wouldn’t be here. You have progressed so much with your style, I’m truly captivated by your life; the way you lay it out for us gives me feelings of compassion. I want to dislike you; but I’m only envious and inspired. I wanted you to show your face, but now I hope you never do for fear that I will change my perception of you. I want to know you.
I went to Harvard for my masters and I can tell you that MANY of the students I knew were not that bright. They are just amazing at memorizing and taking tests, but actually not bright.
@@user-pd1lt1ub6z I should add that my professors were legitimately brilliant people and I loved being in their classes. I don’t think a majority of them are far left, but the more conservative ones just avoid politics. My colleagues, however, were nuts.
now i realized that College life is more joy and fun if you have a friend just even 1, i mean you can still go to school without friends but, it will be better if you have one because it will make you more happier
Great job, the video is produced so well.
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing this vlog to me~ It's so inspiring and of course everyone loves harvard but your video shows the life vividly.
I cannot fathom the mental strength and of course the brilliant mind to endure such rigorous academic demands. I am doing Ed.D in University which is outside top 300 in US and I am exhausted already. I pray you will do well, finish strong with least stress.
These people: Spend 60 hours per week studying non-stop about high sophisticated and useful topics.
Me: Spends 4 minutes a week studying for a high school Junior quiz and hopes that I get a good grade.
Today was the first time I ever watched your video and it's truly inspiring. Funny fact is that I'm struggling right now with a lot of issues regarding work and studies and most of them lead to the one equation: should I push this hard on working to be one of the guys of the academic field? Or should I stick around and keep going as hard as I can to see a dream come true? I know what I want but sometimes you just wonder if you're in the right path. Anyway, thank you for sharing your history. I wanna come back here a few months forward and say that I didnt give up and the game still goes on with our daily accomplishments.
This is really amazing and inspiring.❤️
Keep up the good work
At no point in this video did being a Harvard student even come into play. Anyone could have eaten, gone to Harvard campus, and read a research paper in the library. For free. 🤣
Really liked how simply you have put your day routine.... it was lovely to watch.
Thanks for watching!
"Hard work is a choice". Genuinely curious, but do you think hard work is a choice for everyone? Because there are people out there with limited resources and opportunity that have to break their back at their jobs to barely stay alive.
People will say anything to excuse their laziness, he was raised at a farm, his father is literally a construction worker, "breaking his back to barely stay alive". If anything that makes his story even more amazing,
Omg, I really love this. This is my inspiration of my PHD! hope i can get to Harvard
'hard work is a choice' - thats so priviledged to say. Not everyone can access education like you can
hard work is a choice for everyone. no matter the circumstances the only thing you can really control is how much work you put into what you do.
Hard work isn’t just about studies. Whatever you do in your life it is your choice to work hard or not.
from someone who came from a poor backround. this is the dumbest thing ever sorry but think before you say something 😂
Yea. Because those people CHOOSE not to work as hard as him. He stated multiple times how much he wanted to be in this field and how he strived to make his way to where he is now. Not everyone wants to be a theoretical physicist. People CHOOSE to do what they want to do in life. Just because he got lucky getting into Harvard doesn’t mean he’s “privileged” and just because he did backbreaking work to achieve a goal for himself doesn’t mean he’s “privileged”
@@thatvrdude1856 perfection.
It reminds me that I also cross the Charles river from a university in Boston to Harvard in 2018, and from Harvard to Princeton in 2020.
Nice!
Loved the story. The editing and storytelling made it sound so simple, but between the lines you know it is a hard work. Good luck!
Thanks for watching les!
3rd time cycling through the whole playlist
The Charles River story was very inspiring. Where did you spend the rest of your undergraduate years after Boston University?
Hard work is a choice. Love this!
The voiceover sounds like a movie!
Thanks for watching Victor!
Came back to the og video. Thanks for sharing your experience
Please Make a video on your journey how u prepared for exam and also how an international student can get admission in Harvard
I had so many chills watching this video
Great story arc to your day! Very engaging production
You could have just did all that from home. Do you ever have classes or any reason to actually be on campus?
Mental health
My guess is collaboration but he doesn't show other people on his vlogs, otherwise this feels a bit lonely yet still is my dream life lol
You are amazing man 👊 i believ one day i walk around this compus for studying. I proud with you. Thanks for sharing this. I hope you are having fun this.
All you did was eat
😂😂😂
And these videos look amazing honestly.
