You may or may not grow... It's just a matter of time to see if you are going to...

yeah thats totally normal, nothign wrong with that at all. A alot of people don't grow taller until later in age...also there are lots of adults who are not much taller than you!

You'll grow. I wager at 15 it'll be anywhere from 1-7inches... But, if you don't grow too much, you're still normal. Some people are just shorter than others. It's no big deal.

Between 16 and 17 you'll hit what might turn out to be your last growth spurt. Being 15 and 5 foot 3 is a little smaller than average. I'd consider the average for that age to be 5'5?

Not a big deal

You can't really ask if your height is normal or not. I know 15-year-old guys who are 5'3 and ones who are over 6'. There's nothing wrong with being 5'3 at 15. You'll definitely grow at least a few more inches or else hit a massive growth spurt soon.

Most boys don't stop growing until their early twenties, you've got ages yet so no need to worry.

I'm 15, and 5"5, I know what your going through, being this short sucks, whether, I talked to my doctor about it and really just helped me kind of stop the guessing, so maybe next time you go in just kinda talk to him about it

That is normal, but we cannot tell you when, how much or if you are going to grow at all anymore. Your doctor might tell you that if you are willing to go visit him/her.

It all comes down to genes, how tall are your parents, grandparents. Looking at their height might give you a rough idea how tall you will be but remember you are 15 years old, males stop growing at 21 years old so there is plenty of time for you!
