What is the best simulation software that allows for user input of variables and covers the widest range of physics topics. I.e. from introductory mechanics all the way to particle physics. If there is even any such software out there. Thank you!

Welcome to the PF.

Have you looked at packages like COMSOL Multiphysics?

Take a look at its capabilities to see if it is what you are looking for. It is not cheap, and I don't know if they offer a student version...
