I pulled this up recently while Googling "math forums":

Physics Help and Math Help - Physics Forums
A place for advanced teen physicists to discuss any topic of physics other science/math issues.


I think I am too old to hang out here. I am surprised I wasn't carded when I joined. :biggrin:
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Teen physicists? :smile: What's next, baby senators?
 
It sounded kinda like a TV show to me. I have to admit, if there were a program called Teen Physicists, I would watch it!
 
If the U.S. senate were compromised entirely of babies, I'd watch that. Better than the ones we have now (the majority at least).
 
I'll still be old enough, or young enough rather, to stay here for a couple years.

Heh, I'll be 19 during my third year of college... If I really tried, I could probably be close to taking an advanced physics class :rolleyes:
