My husband is an astronomer who went to Caltech and Berkley. In high school he took classes with a lot of math and science. He took physics, trigonometry, calculus, and all the higher-level science classes you can take. Before him, I had never met an astronomer.

Math, physics, chemistry, English in high school. See the bulletin of the college for what to take in college.
