    Especially helpful would be anyone who has had a similar problem and found a way to overcome it. I'm an INTJ personality type, if that is at all relevant.

    Schools Community college, should I take my math or physics at university?

    Generally universities will want you to take classes applying to your major with them. I'd say take your core classes at the community college to save time and money. Take calculus 1 as well, as that is a requirement for the first semester of a physics major. That should get you in good...

    Skipping class because it is just so dull

    Find out how the subjects apply to you, and focus on that. English is practice for writing physics papers. Geography/History is getting you prepared to travel internationally and lecture by learning about all these cultures and their interrelations. Phys ed. is getting you in shape so you...
