I doubt it'll still be here.
If it was, I would still be on a lot.

If you haven't taken basic physics by age 16, the probability of you being an astrophysicist is incredibly low.

Edited by Trad: 4/25/2013 1:18:03 AMThat's actually not true... at all. High School courses are typically only of high concern when applying for basic colleges(and typically when focusing on astrophysics as a career, you're going far beyond that). The courses in which, by the way, are/can be easily molded into fitting that specific career path even if you've only finished the basics such as Alg I, II, and Geometry. Many people don't start decent physics courses until college, even when going into this specific career.

Not really.

Enjoy being behind in high school and college.

I'm one year behind my class in mathematics, largely due to my lack of concern for the subject prior to the realization that it is relevant to my interests. Now my effort focuses largely on my understanding of mathematics, which I've since proven I have drastically increased since I was actually given interest in. I've come into contact with numerous physicists who've assured me such a setback is minor, if it could even be considered a setback at all. It's fully possible for an individual to catch up on math in college, my worries in that respect have disappeared, because I know now I'm willing to put in the effort to make that profession a reality.

Better focus more on physics itself, because all you'll really care about is math up to calculus II.

Physics is only available when you take Trigonometry at my school, which I'll be doing ASAP hopefully alongside precalculus. At the moment, I'm in Honors Chemistry, but luckily, this final quarter encompasses a lot of physics and nuclear chemistry. I read physics novels in my spare time and constantly read physics articles, so when the concepts are actually introduced to me in school, I'll have a good grasp of what it is that the natures of them are, I'll just need to understand the mathematics which, because I'm so passionate about the subject, I will never slack off on. Enthusiasm for a subject produces more results than most think.

I underestimated you greatly.
