Hello. I'm Leo and I Know I probably won't be as welcomed here but ever since I found this place after searching up the Monty hall problem in the movie 21, I was extremely interested in this place and wanted to start learning about Logic, Physics, and math. Although I'm still in Grade 8, and in High school, If anyone would be So kind to give me a place to start with?
Thanks :)

I don't know if there are any better options for an 8th grader than to just study the school books (on mathematics). I suppose you could read some popular science books that try to explain a theory without using mathematics. There's a section of this forum that's dedicated to science books. You should be able to find some recommendations there.

This thread should probably be under "academic guidance". I will request that it be moved there.
 


Thanks, Greatly Appreciated. Guess I'm still too Young. XD
