<p>Readers,</p>
<p>I am a high school junior interested in majoring in biology to pursue my dream to be a doctor. Because the MCAT is undeniably difficult, I find it most beneficial to major in a field that will be associated with both my profession and the life-changing test. Although this logic seems reasonable, other sources indicate that it is nearly impossible to have a 4.0 GPA in biology, and this disconcerting realization could potentially be detrimental to my success in college, for it could possibly deny me of the opportunity to gain acceptance to a reputable medical school (I am interested in UCF, by the way). </p>
<p>I have maintained over a 4.0 GPA in high school, never receiving below an A in any of my classes (all of which being Honors/Pre-AP/AP), and although I have never taken the ACT/SAT, I score reasonably well on the pre-tests (in the 32/34 range). I gave up a modeling opportunity to pursue my dream, and after forfeiting an undeniably wonderful opportunity, failure would be devastating.</p>
<p>I would greatly appreciate any advising and/or assistance you can provide. Details and suggestions would make me much more comfortable in my decision to major in Biology. </p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Jessie</p>
