@PeroK I wasn't preaching to you. I was expanding on your posting for the benefit of the OP.

Okay, sorry. I misunderstood.

Yeah I see, thank you for the usefull website!
To be honest, Oxford is not the case because it is world leading in humanities but not the best in physics and mathematics. Of course Oxford is cool university and I respect it but I i just want to focus on and to do the best.

This is categorically false hahaha look at oxford's theoretical physics group in the physics dept.

https://www2.physics.ox.ac.uk/research/rudolf-peierls-centre-for-theoretical-physics and the

and their theoretical physics group in the math dept.

They are full of amazing researchers... in particular the latter link... those are HUGE names! tons of old genius and young up-and-comers

Dear everyone,

My younger brother who is 15 years old and me, both live in the UK. He is determined to become a theoretical physicist like Zeldovich or Ginzburg.
We have an opportunity to send him to a US high school because it is the best place to become and be a physicist.
Could you please suggest good (potentially the best) physical and mathematical high schools in the US to start becoming a physicist?
And of course he will apply to Caltech and MIT because he wants to do physics his whole life.

Thank you for your attention,

My brother and me)

Are you looking for private schools or public? The best are some of the private academies. If you want a public option, then one of tbe specialized science and math magnet programs is your best bet.
However, some require admission via test.
