finding Ph.D position in Physics

Depends on your current qualifications. If you have a decent master's from India (Which I assume is your home country), I know that the National University of Singapore gives out funded phDs, especially in the Engineering department. I am an undergrad there, and the place has lots of postgrads from India/ China.

This site would have all info on schols/deadlines/ admission criteria at NUS, but u'd need to browse thru a bit. And also, they ask for GRE scores.

funded Ph.D in abroad....?
L

i just came across this site, as I am an international student interested in postgrad studies (got an year in my degree left though).

@badhaircut, As Shani pointed out, its the entire fault of the uni isnt it? Clearly, asking for GRE/SAT/TOEFL scores would be a simple method of weeding out students with english unsuitable for postgrad studies. But no, the unis are clearly more interested in the money from these students (10,000GBP+ per year), so I see them as being duped in a way - a sad level for a uni to stoop down to.

Please dont be bitter at those international students - if anything, have some sympathy for them, and the cash they have been robbed of. It would be more helpful for yourself if you made a complaint on your uni's admission policies.
