Thanks for the response. It's helped me a lot and given me a rough starting point. I just have a few more questions. In math olympiad there's I guess a preliminary test (AMC 10/12) that anyone can take and they choose the highest scorers on those to take the next round test (AIME). Then they...

I'm currently a freshman and I'm really interested in learning Physics. I've never had any experience doing Physics, but I do know that math is involved and that's it. I'm done with Trigonometry, Algebra 2, and Calculus so I hope that's enough for Physics. Anyways, I've just got a lot of...

So would "University Physics with Modern Physics" cover pretty much everything I need to know just in a more advanced way? I understand that this book is advanced and as you said, this book would give me a possible edge on other students as it reaches further, but are the topics taught in this...

Trust me. I'm really interested in going in depth with Physics. I feel like I've only been leaning towards math my whole life and I haven't really looked at Science that much. Feeling I needed to break the barrier, this is why I'm starting Physics. It's for the pursuit of knowledge. Competitions...

I've done until Algebra 2. I've done Geometry but I haven't gone to Trig yet.

I've qualified for the AIME. I'm hopefully trying to get into the USAMO next year.

The title's pretty much self-explanatory. I'm totally new to Physics. I know absolutely nothing about Physics and I've never picked up a physics textbook before. What better way then to come into a Physics Forum! I'm currently in 8th grade and going into 9th grade. I was inspired to start...
