AI Thread Summary
A user expresses a desire to learn physics starting from KS3, citing challenges due to late dyslexia diagnosis and social anxiety that prevent them from attending college. They are currently using BBC Bitesize for self-study but are uncertain about its reliability. The user is motivated by personal interest rather than career goals, although they may consider taking exams in the future. Other forum members welcome the user and suggest that as long as the chosen resources keep them engaged, they should be fine. The thread is moved to the Academic Guidance forum for better visibility and support.

hey all. i thought i would just say hello. and see if anyone can point me in the right direction. i am very interested in learning physics but i need to start from Ks3 i am 28 but i was not found to be dylexic until a few years ago. so i failed all my exams. i also can't go to a college campus as i have had a major problem with social anxiety so if i have any questions or get lost anywhere i wouldn't ask the teacher/tutor or even fellow classmates. I am currently doing what i can using the BBC bitesize for Ks3 and brushing up on some of the things i would need to know, but i am unsure if this is a relable sorce and if it will help me progress further, I am not wanting a job or anything to come out of this i am simplay doing this for me as an interest but i still might consider doing the exams at a later date if i feel i can without presuring myself to much.
thanks for reading this and i know it may seem a bit long winded but any help or advice or even giving me names of people to talk to would be a great help.
thank you very much

You always will be welcome to post your questions here. Unfortunately I don't know something about this BBC program. As long as it keeps you interested it should be ok. I leave it to others to answer this in a more qualified manner. However, shouldn't it be "share" instead of "shaw" :wink:
 
thank you for your reply. even if i do not get any other replys i am sure i will stumble my way through. like the play on words lol.
 
Welcome to Physics Forums!

I will move this thread to our Academic Guidance forum where people are more likely to see it and hopefully offer useful suggestions. The New Member Introductions forum is just for introductions and a bit of chit-chat, so not many of the regular posters actually read it, or at least not as often as the topical forums that they're interested in.
 
thank you. i am glad it is going in the correct place. that helps a lot
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
