<p>what subject I should not take? like physics? or chemistry? engineer? I've got a plan I want to get physical but still afraid to go into this field because I am partial - color blind .</p>
<p>I have never heard of anyone not being able to pursue a field of study because of being color blind. Perhaps some careers might be difficult if they involve using colors- fashion, interior design, art. The fields of science and mathematics are not dependent on distinguishing certain colors. Pursue the one you want. </p>

<p>Lots of red-green colorblindness in my family, and other than career-restrictions imposed by policies of the US military and state police officer licensing rules, none of those family members have been unable to pursue the careers that they chose. One majored in biological sciences and had chemistry through at least organic. Yes, work-arounds can be found if you look for them.</p>
<p>You already know some adaptions that work for you, and some accommodations you need to ask of the people around you. You also know some things that you are better at than vision-normals because of the situations in which your perceptions aren’t distracted by color. Think about the accommodations you would need to ask for in classes, and be prepared to ask for them.</p>
<p>so its not a problem ? please answer it , i want to be a physicist its a problem ? </p>
<p>No, it is not a problem. As long as you are aware of what colors you have trouble with and let the people you are working with know that, shouldn’t be a problem. There only a very small number experiments, textbook examples, etc. where it will matter. </p>
<p>so i must take a theoritist physics or material physics or astrophyscis ? please answer it :)</p>
<p>You are overthinking this. You can do physics. If you are starting out in college you do not have to decide what area of physics. You will be in basic physics classes. One step at a time. On every campus is an office of disabilities. If you require accommodations in any class with a lab or a textbook, you can get help with that. As you get into your upper division classes, you can get an idea of what area you are interested in and what suits you. There are many people with color blindness who are doing just fine in a number of fields. So just do what you wish to do academically.</p>

<p>I’m curious as to why you even think this could be an issue. Who has been telling you that you can’t study one of these sciences because of your colorblindness? Stop listening to that person, and start talking with people who can help you learn how to ask for the accommodations you might need.</p>
<p>I was just scared because a lot of people said it would be a lot of lab work in physics. and identical to the usual physics of color</p>
