<p>I will be a junior in high school this school year. I am interested in attending UF, and I already know that I want to go into the Medical Field, specifically Oncology. I am a white female (not sure if that makes a difference) living in a single parent home with one sibling. My mom is an elementary school teacher, so financial aid may be available for me.
Academic Stats:
I am in the Cambridge program as well as Dual Enrollment, which are the two most rigorous programs of study offered at my school. The classes and grades I have received thus far are as follows.

DE Religion- A
Pre AICE Spanish 2- A
Pre AICE Math 2- A

<p>My unweighted GPA is 3.58 and my weighted GPA is 4.42 (from my high school, not UF's gpa scale)
Next year (my junior year) I am taking a total of 6 Dual Enrollment classes and all AICE classes except for Spanish, which will still be Pre AICE. I am taking AICE Biology and AICE Chemisty as I want to go into the medical field.
I took the SAT and ACT in March of my Sophomore year just to get a feel for them.
ACT- Composite 26 (English 30, Math 26, Reading 25, English/Writing 27)
SAT- 1760 (Reading 550, Math 540, Writing 670)
I am going to retake them in the spring of my junior year and the fall of my senior year and I expect my scores to improve significantly. </p>
