Hi, I'm reentering my first year of college at a community college and I'm currently getting an associates degree in science. However, my main goal is to get into meterology so I was wondering what kind of path I should be taking in college and if there are any other science fields that I should be studying up on on the side. Besides astronomy, meterology is probably my favorite scientific field so please help! haha

Nearly everything seems to be research-adjacent: string theory, quantum field theory, quantum optics, cosmology, soft matter physics, black hole radiation, etc. What I don’t see are the kinds of “second-pass fundamentals” I was hoping for, things like...

It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
