Vocal Range - 14 year old boy

I am a 14 year old boy. I have a vocal range from G#2 to F#4 in my chest voice, and can go all the way up to E5 if in head voice. I was wondering what I would be considered as? Baritone? Tenor?

I went through a stage at 15 years old where I couldn't sing anything. Sounded like a frog was trying to die violently in my throat.
Given a chance most vocal teachers will happily put you in a box and tell you that you can only sing in a certain range and certain style. Less work for them I guess - they don't actually have to really know anything about how to actually improve your voice. Don't let someone else laziness prevent you from being freaking awesome!
> Probably a baritone. I agree with Ken though - why put yourself in a box? With work you could get you chest and head voices higher. So try not to limit yourself and more importantly don't let anyone else limit you. Also you are at a stage where your voice is most likely changing and so how it will be in a few years is very different to what it is now.

What happened. I'm at that 15 stage as well. My range in chest is D2/E2-E4 maybe F4 without straining. If I try to access mix voice I sound breathy (not enough cord closure) and like a frog. But my head voice goes up to c6 (not falsetto, pure head, I can record it). What happened with you at that stage? Should I just stop before I hurt myself. I have a baritone range with a baritone sound in the lower notes and tenor sound (light sound) in my upper range.
