Hello, I am a 15 year old male, and I would like to eventually become a scientist of some sort. (Preferably in the realm of astrophysics) First, a little background:
I'm a high-school freshmen, and I am home-schooled. Thus, I can complete courses at my own pace, which means that by the end of this summer I will have completed Basic Physics, Algebra 1 + 2, and pre-calculus, along with a course on ecology/evolution, and various english programs. This following school year I will be taking chemistry at the local community college, as well as geometry online, and calculus on my own. I would like to be accepted to MIT or WPI by my junior year, however I will not have enough science lab courses to qualify. What would be the best educational route to take in order to gain a higher chance of being accepted to MIT?
Over the course of my sophomore year and the following summer I plan on completing calculus, differential equations, and Physics B. Hopefully my GPA will rise to about 4.2 or 4.4 (It is currently 3.825).
Thanks for the help,
Luke
