So, I'm glad. But tell me what is to do A Level Physics, it is in High School or at a University/College?

You can say I am. I'd be studying physics now if I haven't gotten such high grades on my maths exams (now at university I'm studying informatics because of that, it was first on my list). But I plan on also studying physics sometime later. This is still my soft spot. Especialy astronomy. The night sky totally owns me...

I'm aspiring to be one (going to do physics with astronomy at university), if that means anything.
A-levels, by the way, are a part of British education, which you take in your sixth form (16-18, basically). They are the last qualifications you take before you go to university for us.

I don't know what Level A Physics is, but I am taking first year physics in university. My major is computer science, though.

If things go as expected I'll be a full fledged physicist in a couple of months.

Have you seen this thread? (http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=29919&highlight=scientists)

Also, see the Ubuntu science wiki in my sig.
