In summary, a high school student expresses gratitude for the help received from Physics forums and announces passing their IB exams with a score of 38, equivalent to a New South Wales University Admission Index of 96.65. They also mention passing in Physics/Chemistry and with full marks in Maths, making them a registered undergrad this year. Other forum members congratulate them and offer advice for their university experience. One member jokes about the student's enthusiasm for Aeronautical Engineering and another member mentions their interest in transferring to Aerospace Engineering.

Congrats, Aftermath.
I know that I've never helped you myself, since I'm more of a 'hands-on makeshift engineering' sort of guy, but we at PF are always very proud when someone from the site is successful. Keep in mind, though, that while PF is a very valuable resource, you are the one who made it happen.
Best hopes for the future of your chosen path.
