Thank you very much!

Yes, I've realized that if I wish to be a great scientist or inventor, I absolutely need to gain mastery over certain if not all topics of Mathematics, and I'm working on it.

My interests include other topics too, because I like finding connections between different fields and tackling a problem or investigating a topic with techniques from multiple disciplines. I'll make sure to learn more Physics and Chemistry.

I'll definitely include statistics in my list of topics. I've heard how important it's in the social sciences and how people manipulate data to use statistics say what they want, or worse. I'll make sure to avoid such mistakes myself and so I can scrutinize serious research papers myself.

I have also found some research labs and groups that are working on my research interests, and I'll make sure to approach more professors and researchers and try to get involved in research as soon as possible, and see if I can attend conferences and seminars too.
