I am fourteen years old and i am an aspiring chemist, i do in fact know that i want to become a chemist and would like to know some of the skills needed for such a profession. Things you may want to know are that i am home schooled and have general knowledge of things, and i have hardly dabbled in the research of chemistry. although i am fascinated by it and the study of elements and atoms (correct me on that if you wish my outlook does not change). One thing i do not want to hear is "Look kid it's way to complicated" first of all i plan on this becoming a profession of mine and plan on dedicating by study. Any insight is much appreciated thank you very much.
