So basically if my height is determined to be 5'4 and i'm still 4'11 i'll be 5'4 by the time i'm 21?

Height prediction : Basically your final adulthood height is dependent on both your genetics and environment. The figure you mentioned is only an estimate. Your final height cannot be accurately stated. However, it may be a good time to get a wellness exam and discuss with your doctor who could plot out your growth curve on a chart and address this in greater detail
