<p>Yes, I am one of those guys who plans out their whole lives so sorry for that. </p>

<p>But last question (lol) can someone who scores highly in tests and stuff he has been taught do well in a PhD even if he or she doesn't have the math ability to work out solutions and solve stuff he/she hasn't been taught? </p>

<p>Or must you be at the ability of being able to learn/find stuff that isn't in a textbook?</p>

<p>Shore,</p>

<p>A PhD isn't something you can really study for or excel at if you are a good test taker. You need to be able to learn new concepts, perform research and most of all make a worthy contribution to your field and thus write a dissertation.</p>

<p>Just relax right now and go to college. It is way too early to be thinking about graduate school.</p>
