[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 1056783, member: 7463"] Xeno- You are at the most perfect age to ask that question. Although the below applies to the US, I’m sure other countries would parallel it: 1). Absolutely and always study hard in your current schooling. You will need rocking grades to get into a quality University. 2). But in the meantime, keep coding on your own and read as much as you can (if not initially understandable, it will come to you as you proceed). 3). Coding and reading about coding MUST BE FUN for you; failing to find it so really will limit how much can be achieved. 4). If you did well in your studies and were accepted to a reputable University and do well there, then you are pretty much set already as THEY will come for YOU (trust me). 5). If for whatever reason a university is a no-go for you, then please consider the Military. They have the best toys and will train you, and is also a fantastic place to Network with others. And once again, do well here and THEY will come for YOU (double Trust me on that one!). 6). If the above paths worked out, then there is no further issue.
