Hi. As the title suggests, I am at a crossroads of a sort. I am in my sophomore year and am currently pursuing a double major in physics and maths.
I just got my grades for my last semester and did quite badly in all the courses that I was enrolled in. I tried my utmost best to do well, studying an average of 10hrs a day, yet still I could not get anything to work out for me. On the other hand, others in my class have all done quite well. I don't think I can continue with this insecurity: that despite trying my hardest, I will never be match up to others in my class. While I will continue to struggle, they will be doing significantly better than me in the future. I also don't think I can get rid of this insecurity, at least not on my own. I think no matter how hard I try; I never will be able to do good in any of the courses I will take in the future.
Further, my concerns over my GPA have also crippled me. I currently have a semi-decent GPA (about to take a nose-dive because of this semester) yet this recent performance is now making me believe that I will continue on this downward trend and will somehow scrape through my undergrad with a GPA of around 3.6. I don't think my grad school prospects are looking any good with this GPA and as such I don't think sticking around in physics without going into academia will be worthwhile. Additionally, with a double major, I am looking at 5-6 years in undergrad, which is a ridiculous amount of time.
This brings us onto the matter at hand. After weighing up these problems, I think my best option now is to switch to some other major. I have talked to my teachers about it, and they have told me to think deeply about this and then take any major decision. Some have suggested instead to drop maths as my second major while others have suggested that my decision to switch may be an escape of a sort from my shortcomings. I don't know how to continue and so am open to any and all the help I can get.

Fermat’s Last Theorem by Singh was astonishing. I read it on a vacation staying up until 4 in the morning. I have never been more excited by math in my life and trust me: I am not a math dude.
The Making of the Atomic Bomb by Rhodes is wonderful but am looking to find something with that compelling and relentless excitement of the Singh book. Similar to the excitement of reading Margalit Fox’s The Riddle of the Labyrinth: The Quest to Crack an Ancient Code.
Thank you in advance!!

(long post ahead)
My dad was, and still is, considered the blacksheep of thr family.
He's the panganay. Out of all his siblings, siya lang yung walang stable na job so no fixed income and obviously, he can't provide for me ever since. Dad had multiple girlfriends after ng separation nila ni mom when I was only 2 y/o and he lived with them kaya I never really spent quality time with him properly. Mom was working overseas to provide for me so naiwan ako sa grandparents ko (dad's parents) and I think since I was his daughter and the first apo of the family and I was under the care or my grandmother na very trad asian ang standard of living, I was forced into that mold of becoming the "golden child".
At the age of 3, I learned how to read and write so at 4, I was sent to kindergarten, hindi man lang primary school. I took multiple summer classes nung elementary ako for computer learning, math classes, English classes, etc. If I wasn't doing a good job, a belt or a hanger would be waiting for me at home. I remember pa na before going to sleep dati, I had to read at least 4 pages off of a Kid's Encyclopedia. Syempre gabi na nun so hindi na mapipigilan ng bata na antukin pero hahampasin ako ng hanger when I even attempt to yawn. I was scared din of my tita, dad's youngest sibling who was the smartest out of them and obviously Lola's favourite. I would hide my report cards kasi kapag nakikita niya, she'd shame me for having fun (take note that I was a kid at this time), and that I should study to get my grades up.
Out of all my cousins, ako lang din ang napalo ng lolo ko and ako lang din ang naka experience ng true wrath ng lola ko while growing up. Sometimes I envy my cousins kasi they have better lives than me. Loving parents na may stable job, and they can be open to them about anything without fearing na baka mapagalitan sila. I felt like I was singled out just because I was my father's kid and it wasn't hard to do so din kasi I'm an only child. Until now, I still have the fear na if I fail in anything I do, I'd be shamed, ridiculed, and belittled kaya I work my ass off for my academics.
I don't live with them anymore. Im now staying with my mom and although life with her isn't as fine and dandy as with my dad's family, I like it here. I still can't do certain things with my mom like open up, or ask for things that I want/need, pero it's better than having someone count everything na hiningi mo sa kanila tapos sisingilin ka rin in the end. I wish I wasn't his daughter, I wish I was his brother's daughter. My tito would bring me on their outings with his wife whenever may tension sa bahay between my grandmother and father (they get into heated arguments na umaabot sa point na naghahagisan na sila ng gamit). Maybe I'm just not important enough to be given attention or love, who knows?

Hey it has been a while since I have been getting 670-680. Anyone who was in the same position what did you do to get that 750?

This is long but I really need some help/perspective. If you read this thank you so much.
Hello. I am an upcoming Junior in hs, and I am seriously thinking of ending my life this summer. I’ve wanted to end it for years now but I think I’m actually going to do it. Waking up every day feels like a punishment. The only thing that makes me happy is the thought that I will die one day.
I’ve been so sad and so so so lonely for years. The most frustrating thing is, my quality of life has actually gotten a bit better. I have the most amazing friends, I’m in clubs that I actually enjoy, and I have been able to make a little money while doing something I love. So no, I am not doing this for attention or sympathy.
I just feel so disconnected from everything and everyone. This sadness, this lonely feeling that consumes my daily life, is so horrible and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.
Not to be dramatic or anything thing lol but I wish I could open myself and dissect it out of me. I want to be happy.
I’ve tried to think positively, to read more, to work out, etc etc. it never goes away. When I do accomplish something, I don’t feel proud. There is only shame and the thought that I could have done better. I do not know what is wrong with me. I’ve asked for help and ever since then I’ve felt so much worse. I thought it was supposed to help.
My grades are slipping and I feel trapped in my own failure.
I’ve prayed for god to kill me in my sleep so many times over the years. I thought he was supposed to help people? I feel like god looks at me get up every morning and laughs to himself. My life, my existence, my very being is a punishment.
All of my friends are either very happy or are in beautiful relationships. I an happy for them! It’s not a jealously thing it’s just a reminder of how fucking lonely I am. No one has ever called me pretty or asked me out. What is wrong with me? What have I done to deserve this. Not in the victim mentality way but as a genuine question. Why am I so lonely?
My face… don’t get me started on it. Everyone else is so beautiful. I wish I was beautiful.
I don’t think my parents believe me when I say that I want to leave. Even if they do, they are always trying to solve the problem with religion…. I’m pretty sure I’m gay lol!
I’m venting on Reddit because I don’t want to weigh my friends down. They don’t deserve that. They are good and honest people and I wish I could contribute more to their lives.
Even typing this now. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I’m so frustrated and sad and lonely and I want nothing more than to be gone.
So yes, I need to know if it gets better. Because I don’t want to see my junior year if it doesn’t. I’d rather be gone.
If you read to the end. Thank you and I’m so sorry for the long text. I just have no one to talk to. I’m really hanging on by a thread here. I’m sorry you had to read this and have a good day.

I'm a 17 years old student in France. My life was already terrible a while back. I started to hate myself when I was 6 and I started having suicidal thought at 8. I tried to end my life for the first time when I was 10. I tried asking for help to my parents but they blamed it on sorcery, saying that I was cursed and said that was because the devil tries to kill me (I absolutely hate them for that) I even cry myself to sleep almost every night but it doesn't seem to bother or worry them. I have friends but in the past when I tried talking about my sorrows to others they deemed me weird and abandoned me so I barely talk about it. I can't seek for any professional help since my parents don't want to and I don't want to talk about it to my teachers because they might tell my parents and they'll probably beat me for that. My grades are bad and my parents keep on telling me that I don't put any effort to it (which isn't actually true since it already takes me a lot to just force myself to wake up in the morning.) Exams are coming up and I don't think I'll pass which will make my parents hating me even more. I also starve myself since food is starting to disgust me and I barely sleep due to the fact that I'm constantly anxious and fearing for my life at home because of my parents, they never tried to hurt me physically but I feel like they will if I don't do great at school. I don't know if I actually should jump off the balcony of my school on the 3rd floor and kill myself or if I just simply need to force myself to endure and survive all of this. Sometimes I even wonder why I was even born.

Well, praying that I didn't fail my last two classes💀 I’m finally done with my degree. So why not share my unfiltered opinion/experience that I’m sure Faculty has been eagerly waiting for? Ranking wrt:
Course Content / Instructor / Organization / Exam/Pset Difficulty. Copying most recent post's format. Major congrats and shoutout to all graduating this semester and beyond, it's been more than real.
A lil motivation: don't give up, don't ever give up...
live look at brain having bruh moment during exam (is this a record?)
S-TIER:

1. CS 1110 - Intro CS Python: Will always be goated course for me. After switching majors, was very intimidated by CS. Prof Lee/Bracy & staff were godsent, course was very enjoyable and beginner friendly (duh) while remaining very fulfilling and challenging. Projects/Labs were very helpful and plenty of resources for help, enjoyed studying for exams and material thoroughly. Thank god I did not stick w Matlab (unbiassed opinion why do you ask)
2. ORIE 3500 - Prob & Stats II: An out of whack sequenced class took during summer but love how Goldberg teaches. Not sure if still applicable but grading was very friendly and not a lot of tedious course work but learned a lot and enjoyed class. Exams were challenging but fun and grade cutoff made learning pressure-free. Shoutout D Goldberg one of my favorite professors
3. ORIE 4580 - Simulation Modeling: Took this course w/o prereqs so was unprepared but Henderson is amazing person & Professor and will help you out. Really enjoyed Simio and project/assignments were fun, interactive, interesting. Shoutout Henderson: great guy award helped me through rough spot super approachable/easy to talk to. Decent amount of work and I didn't understand half of it but tools and info still relevant

A-TIER:

• HD 3620 - Human Bonding: Not only easy and straightforward class but content was captivating and enjoyed studying for exams. I recommend this course to anyone, insightful and lends some underappreciated good advice/knowledge🧢
• ORIE 4160 - Topics in Data Sc: Not to meat-ride Goldberg🍔 but top 3 prof I had. Class not tedious BS work; approaches high level topics with colloquial-like speech (not always) and I find learning easy with him. If only he would change his lecture notes format so its not formatted in size 1.5 pt font and jumbledtogetherinasingleboldedsentence, but looked forward to class. Relaxed classroom environment, would sometimes spend entire lecture on one proof but can't complain, was prob important lol
• ORIE 3120 - Tools for OML: liked this class, Frazier is cool and material is well encompassing and useful outside of classroom. cool project; recommend to anyone interested in DS/OR
• PSYCH 1102 - CogSci: Probably my most thoroughly enjoyed class I took here. Honestly would switch majors to this if I had the chance, fascinating stuff and was like exam only easy A
• ORIE 3300 - Opt I: fw'd this course and instructors heavy. Had hard time initially but after time gained decent understanding. Shoutout Ishan/Varun, awesome instructors and great people. Made me like ORIE, f simplex.

B-TIEUSEFUL:

• AEM 2011 S/S Modeling: Took during Summeasynch and was good intro to basics of data analyses/Excel. Fair grading/don't know if ever saw Prof but sure he was coo
• AEM 4060 Risk Sim: Super chill class w Turkey who is sweetie. Another "real world" application class where you gain usable skills so can't go wrong. Very low workload no one showed up, only 3 assignments including Final so def recommend for ENG major requirement. I <3 AEM
• PHYS 2214 III - Waves/Q&M: Prob fav science course taken. Textbook was helpful plenty of recitation/lab help. Amazes me how ppl managed to figure stuff like that out lol. Grade cut off was stupid, a 37 was lower bound for C on exams so ya boy fit in for once. Didn't feel like I was reading out of textbook, felt exploratory
• ENGRD 2700 - Intro Prob & Stats: Took with Callister → My Guy. Interesting character, enjoyed his sarcastic/rude ED responses 😂 Very straightforward course, wish I retained more
• ORIE 3150 - Accounting: Now we're talking. Yaddi know OG Callister got me right. Was nice breaking from OR curriculum and actually useful course. Lecture optional, just read textbook; could get a lil tedious
• MATH 1920 - Multivariable: Zoom math ≠ learning. Not bad think was fav math.

MIDDLE-UPPER-LOWER-TIEGEED:

• ORIE 4340 - Modeling and Computation: Okay didn't exactly give this course a chance due to scheduling but moved pretty fast and Prof severely understated amount of work it would take to catch up. Endless lecture notes and material but still cool class/learned little AMPL but def didn't get what I could have
• CHEM 2090: Took this so long ago i doubt the periodic table is still a thing. Don't remember much except always walking out of exams stunned and lab partner who rightfully hated my ass. Barely passed but in hindsight didn't prepare well as wasn't that hard. Look for better sources
• MATH 2940 - Lin Alg: zoom math smfh. probably the most important/relevant math course and still comes back and haunts me in every OR class so pay attention. Don't take during pandemic or you'll be learning from Youtube
• ORIE 4600 - Financial Eng: Thought I would enjoy more than I did. Struggled with understanding content but also didn't go to class or try so perhaps could have something to do with it🤷 Very forgiving and chill grading scheme, wish I actually payed attention it was super hard to learn from lecture slides
• PHYS 1112 M&H: Don't really remember much tbh, dropped it first time but eventually got the hang of it. I like physics textbooks
• ORIE 3310 Opt 2: Just relearning 3300, boring and already learned material. Grading nice

EASY/CREDIT:

• ECON 1110 - Micro: Covid sem. took online and was pretty easy.
• ECON 1120 - Macro: Exams were more difficult, content is impressively boring and dull. Easy online credit tho
• ORIE 4152 - Entrepreneurship for Engineers LMAO: Don't know how this course got approved/became legit tbh. easiest class on course roster i think there was one HW and just final project as a joke. Got to enjoy a bit more Callister, this semester was a my fav lol
• PSYCH 2940 - Better Decisions: I might need to retake💀
• PE 1430 - Yoga: Odd instructor pretty sure later got fired but loved class lol nice mid-day bool + good for the soul. Best PE credit. Pranayama 🧘
• PE 1420 - Intro to Meditation: over zoom lol.

BUNS:

1. MATH 1910 - Calc I: Did shitty after prelim 1, not bad course but possibly recommend taking CASE exam if you already know material, kind of waste
2. ENGRD 2110 - Obj-Oriented Prog: Took in summer, was hopeful after enjoying CS1110 but class and content not as fun. Liked VanHattum, call me?
3. PHYS 2213 - EM: Imma be 100p here and not even pretend I deserve credit hours for this course but was available online (ilovecovid) so that was no brainer. Least favorite stem class. Dont cae
4. PSYCH 2350: Don't remember taking this. typical canvas credit course

FEVER DREAM / C&B TORTURE:

1. ORIE 3510 - Stoch Proc I: Second class I failed 😎 Somehow made less sense 2nd time. Cursed course its hard to recognize when you are fully wrong/using wrong intuition but you might not realize this until you get a 31 on the Final. Must attend in person. Thought it would cake retaking but had Scully who is great guy/genius but taught it almost entirely different format than previous year. Info seemed to go in one ear (wp= u/λ) and out the other, not a fan of his notes/material organization. Scully is huge improvement from Dai nonetheless.
2. MATH 2930 (First time😉)- DiffEq: My first failure!🤓 (took it when it was hard i swear) Even though 1st time through was rough, enjoyed solving equations and remains my central to major, def most involved of required math courses. Restructured version was an actual joke compared to previous year, legit had the option to retry & submit everything you turned in until you essentially got it right via brute-force submitting every possible answer.
3. FWS: (Challenges of Modernity): Sigh
4. ENGRI 1160 - Modern Structures: cool project but prof was hard to understand and psets were way too hard for sem1 intro eng course. TA could barely help, made me switch out of civil
5. FWS(Anthrop Persp. of Tech Worlds)?: Now they invent ChatGPT, sick

O-H

1. BIOG 1250 - Biology Seminar (The Rise and Fall of Viruses): Went to class for 3 weeks and learned ab Kentucky bluegrass and rocks, realized class wouldn't count towards major so dropped but figured I'd throw it in here.

So, I’m a student and had a very rough year previously, which drastically affected my sleep schedule. I had briefly 4-6hrs of sleep everyday, except for some weekends where I had almost 8hrs of sleep. I was barely able to catch up on my sleep even on holidays as I had back to back classes and basically relied on coffee to stay awake. Sometimes before exams I would have only 2hrs of sleep as I have 10subjects and no holidays in between each test. As a result, I have noticed a huge decline in my cognitive ability, especially while doing maths. Since my summer vacation is going on, I decided it high time to fix my sleep. So I’ve been sleeping for at least 10-12 hrs, undisturbed. I’ve been doing that for a month now, I definitely feel much more alert and in general just better, but I find it difficult to wake up in the morning. I’m an extreme early bird (before my sleep schedule got messed up, I usually woke up at 4) but now I find it difficult to wake up before 9am, even if I sleep at 8pm… so I have the following questions: 1. What exactly is sleep debt and do I have it? 2. What should I do so that I’m able to wake up at 4 again, because I feel the most motivated early morning 3. Will this have long terms effects and have I potentially ruined my sleep schedule forever? 4. Is this serious enough to consult a doctor or should I just continue to sleep more and more?
Other details: I’m 15F, 5 feet 6 inches tall, and I weigh 51kgs The only medicine that I’m taking is accutane (alternating between 10mg and 20mg) Thank you.

I think my grades are gonna be ABB in CS math and accounting, I plan on taking econ in my gap year (most likely will get an A) I have done a bunch of extracurriculars, so what are my chances of getting in? (Please be brutally honest, no sugar coating)

I honestly don't know where to start. My dad has never been a good person for as long as I can remember. I (18) have 3 siblings. 24,23 and 4. Growing up me and my siblings were always abused. We would get thrown into walls, beat until we were bloody and weak. Handcuffed to our beds and couldn't get up unless we screamed out and asked. We couldn't get water unless we asked. We couldn't use the bathroom unless we screamed and begged. Even then my dad would stand outside the bathroom and if we were there linger than 5 minutes he would open the door or even rip us out the bathroom. It was worse for both my siblings. I was my dad's favourite. I wish I wasn't. But it made things easier. I experienced what they went through but less. My brother used to wake up with my dad beating on him. Sometimes for things he didn't even do. My dad would fight us at the ripe age of 7. I dint mean whoop our ass either. I mean actually beat us. Chase us around the house, pull our hair punch us in the rips. Make holes in the walls from our body. And my mom stood by, watching. She too was afraid. Some days we were forced to get naked. He would bring people over like his friends or his family and they would watch him beat us in our underwear. We were kids. We were girls. Girls getting beat in front of grown men. Screaming and crying begging to stop and let us go. Nobody helped us. They just watched. They sat by and just fucking watched. Some came back and were still around my father but most left. They couldn't be friends with a man like him. I wish I could describe what that man had done to my brother but my sibling won't tell me. It's been years since my brother moved out, he's left that life behind him and I'm so thankful for it. My brother is happy. Living with his girlfriend and making music now. My sister's however, we all live with our parents. And every day, I see my mother in agony. He beats her. He Screams in her face. He throws knifes at hern and when she says she's gonna leave he throws himself in our garage and tells her he's going to kill himself. So she fights for him to stay alive. Because she still loves him even though she's being mistreated. Even though he's mistreated us. Her children. He cheated on her with his friend. (Let's call her B)
B had a child of her own, she came into our lives when I was in about 6th grade. She was horrible. She clearly wanted my father. She made up things about me and told them to my dad so I would get in trouble. She misconstrued my words till I was grounded for being disrespectful or thrown at my mother. My mom knew everything that went on. She saw her. B would push me into the walls and on the floor. They forced me to call her daughter my sister. Throughout my protests, they never stopped. I would actually get beat for saying she wasn't. She called my dad, daddy even though she HAD a dad. This is the woman my dad first started cheating on my mom with. My mom would coom and clean. Take care of him financially . Let this woman into our house. Into our lives only for her to turn around and fuck it up. One day I went to walk my dog and when I got back my father was in handcuffs. How funny. It wasn't me anymore. It wasn't us being Handcuffed. In some twisted fate there he was. Sitting in our lawn. 10 police cars all over my street. So many officers guarding the house and him. I cried. Maybe he was gone forever. I don't care about what he did. I care about how long he's going to be gone. My mother informed me that his mistress b scratched his face in an argument and he abused the fuck outta her in front of her child. Then took her phone and left. I prayed that day. I prayed he would be gone forever. I prayed he would never make it back home. And yet he did. My mom begged me and my sister's for bail money. And it's my mom. As much as I hate that man. I love my mom. I would do anything for her. I tried to tell her I didn't want to. He wasn't good for us but she cried into my arms. She didn't want my little sister to grow up without a dad. She was financially dependent on him even tho he didn't have a job at the time. I'm guessing he got a check because he was ex military but I'm not sure. He came back the night before thanks giving. Next morning he disappeared. Told my mom he was gonna kill himself then went silent. Mom begged me to talk to him. SHE said he was only willing to talk to me. She begged and begged " please baby, please I don't want to lose him" I couldn't say no. So I sat outside by the ring camera. Alone. At the age of 14 I talked my dad out of killing himself. By. Myself.
Now years later, B hasn't been in out lives and he's cheating again. My mother despises him. If he drops dead today she wouldn't care. She just wants to be a person. She's told us to pack a bag in case he goes crazy she's ready to leave. He's cheating on her with a woman from him new job. She found pictures of her nudes on his watch. I pray for my mommas safety. I will fight for her. I'm old enough now to understand that my mom was afraid too. I'm old enough to understand that sometimes you just need to put down a man if he hurts your family. He isn't my dad and he's not a real man. I wouldn't normally wish death. But he may deserve it.
(Sorry if there's typos I literally broke the right hand side of my screen so I can't see anything n I don't have money or a car to go fix it ) <3

Hello! My younger brother is taking the exam for the ASEAN Pre-U scholarship this year. Would like to see if anyone who has taken the exam in previous years remember what was tested?
It would be great to know the: 1. Subjects tested (I assume it's Math and English, but is there other exams that is tested?)

1. Level of content, so roughly what grade/secondary level tested. (Sec 3? 4?)
   
2. Content tested, for example in Math, algebra? calculus? graphing?
   
3. How should my younger brother better prepare? If you have gotten the scholarship yourself, is there any advice that I can give my younger brother?
   

Thank you in advance!

This morning I head out and all I am being offered is about $.50 to $.60 a mile. What the hell has happened. Go 26 miles for $16 or 11 mile for $5 and as I decide to head home I get an option for 29 miles for $16. I get it time and miles are supposed to be the basis but depreciation on your car, gas and maintenance it’s less than poverty. Makes me laugh when I read people saying hey $.655 a mile write off I’m making pretty decent coin. Do the math 250 to 300 miles a day times say 275 days (conservatively) that’s 75,000 miles in a year and your car is now worth less than half when you bought it. Great write off when you lost $12000 on your car.

Firstly, this isn’t about her being crazy or anything, and secondly, I dont even know if this is the right subreddit and i hope someone can direct me to the right one but here it goes:
Every single morning my girlfriend wakes up sick, like to the point where she has to rock herself back and forth to keep from throwing up (no, she’s not pregnant, this has gone on for the duration of our relationship and she’s still not pregnant AFAIK). The only thing that helps her is smoking weed, which, afterwards, she’s fine and goes about her day like normal, besides from headaches which i just attribute to her not drinking water, but rather mtn dew and red bull.
I personally don’t smoke but her ENTIRE family does, with the exception of her dad who only just stopped a month ago due to medical reasons, and she smokes with them during the day and also probably had to deal with weed smoke in the house while growing up, and she’s also told me she’s smoked daily since ~8th grade (we’re both 19)
Her mom said that her cousin’s mom (i think?) has a “flu virus that lasts your whole life” and that both my girlfriend and her mom and everyone else in the family has it, which i honestly think could just be a cop out to not get her tested for what she actually might have but thats just me. Also, if she doesn’t smoke in the morning, she’s sick all day and nothing can help her, and that sickness does involve actually throwing up and not just nausea. So, any guesses? Also, if not the right sub, please direct me to the right one

For AS I took math chem bio physics and further math (all predicted grade A). I wanna apply for engineering. Any recommendations???

Can anyone help me improve my scores. I felt really good about math during the test and felt like I only got 1-2 wrong on the first module. The second module was definitely a lot harder and I know for sure I missed a lot on that module. I have finished all the concepts on Khan Academy and am familiar with desmos and its tricks. For reading/writing, my vocab has always been really bad so I started learning pre fixes and suffixes and also started reading New York Times daily. I just need some additional tips. I want to get a 1300 and above for the June 1st Sat.

Im doing my gcses right now so I will probably also reconsider after my results. In my mocks I did no revision for paper 1 and got a 9 and for paper 2 i revised and got a 7. My overall grade was an 8. Im worried I’m not gonna be good enough at physics to do it for a level but I do think it is interesting. I see a lot of people say it is hard but I have a feeling most of these people do physics for a level knowing they aren’t good at it and that’s why they are struggling now. I picked maths and chemistry for my other two topics. I get 7s in the maths with no revision and ill probably try hard for a levels. A lot of people online are talking about how they regret it. Should I take it?

Hey everyone!
I'm wrapping up Year 9 and wanted to share my journey and a project I've been working on. Ever since I was young, I've been fascinated by airplanes, and now I want to pursue a career in aeronautical engineering, aiming for the best universities out there.
I realized how crucial it is to have a solid foundation in math, physics, and English. The universities I want to study at require very good marks, so I began to prepare myself thoroughly. I think the content taught at school isn't enough to access these universities. This is why I developed a detailed study plan that combines these subjects with additional aviation-related tasks. This plan has helped me immensely, and now I am launching it freely to the public because I believe it can help others too. Important: this plan is designed for my level and my timetable, so I am not sure this plan will work for everyone.
Why I'm Sharing This:
I know there are many others out there who share my passion for aviation and might benefit from a structured study plan. As I prepare for my future in aeronautical engineering, I wanted to offer my program to anyone who might find it useful.
About the Program:

• Target Level: The program is designed for 9th-grade students, but some of the content may be interesting and beneficial for learners at different levels.
• Structured Learning: A week-by-week guide covering essential topics and activities.
• Community Support: Join a group of like-minded individuals passionate about aviation.
