Go to Post Without mentors, you wouldn't even be participating in FIRST. Your team wouldn't exist, and FIRST as a program wouldn't exist. If it did, it'd just be another form of a science fair. - Cory [more]

BASIC is not Visual Basic; VB has more in common with C++ than with BASIC.

That being said, if you can teach yourself (or get taught) regular old C, you'll have a foundation that will pay you well for the rest of your life.

Not a bad return for a High School student...
