I Want To Pursue My Degree In High School

As far as opportunities go, I am extremely fortunate in what I have had access to throughout my academic career. I have had near-constant access to the Internet, highly-educated parents, and talented teachers. However, my curiosity often extends beyond the pre-determined course load of whichever academic level I am currently at. My high school for the 9th and 10th grades, Northwood High School, was a small, rural, high school that has a well-defined progression of classes that most students followed. When registering for classes in 9th grade the administration said that I would not be allowed to take two classes on any given subject in a year because it would be “too difficult to be successful”. After multiple meetings with guidance counselors, demonstrating my determination to take

Thus both of these classes were the first time they had been taught by my teachers. Upon admission, to the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics, I had to take a math placement test. Due to the differences in expectations between my home high school and NCSSM, I was replaced into Pre-Calculus. This severely limited what I could take in the future as many of the math elective classes have calculus as a prerequisite. Additionally, I found that as I proceeded in my education in physics I needed to know more advanced mathematics in order to fully understand concepts. For example, I had enrolled in a research class for physics and I was studying quantum computers. To perform the most basic calculations related to quantum systems one must know linear algebra to work with the complex vector operations, which requires knowledge of calculus. In order to resolve this dilemma, I decided to study calculus in my free time. Throughout my junior year, I went through a calculus textbook and other Internet resources learning single and some multi-variable calculus as well as basic linear
