I am currently an 11th grader living in Miami, FL. Fluent in Spanish and English. I attend a small school at a local research university that allows us to take as much as 10 college credits per semester, in addition to our regular high school curriculum. Please be honest about this chance and please give me tips on how to improve to get into my desired colleges.
