Growth: Your adult height is determined by when your growth plates close, which varies from person to person and from bone to bone. You may gain a little more height, if your growth plates are not closed/fused yet. If they are, then 6'4" will be your adult height. Also take into consideration height on your mother's side as well, that can contribute to your final height.
