In summary, to become a physicist, one should start by excelling in mathematics and science courses in high school. It is also important to pursue a bachelor's degree in physics or a related field, and gain research experience through internships or undergraduate research programs. Graduating with a master's degree or a PhD is often necessary for higher-level positions in the field. Networking with professionals and staying updated on advancements in the field can also help in building a successful career as a physicist.

Hi everyone, thank you for accepting me as a member!
I am currently attending a local community college; aiming for my A.S. degree before transferring to University, and earning a B.S. in physics, before entering graduate school.
Ever since I went to the planetarium at OMSI in third grade, I began to obsess over physics. I have a pretty clear idea of what my dream and goal is: becoming a physicist. However, I do need a little bit of guidance on my path to achieve that dream.
I also enjoy laser tag, sushi, and hiking.
Thank you,
Mila :)
