<p>I simply use this screen name because my parents use one similar. UF is definently not my dream school, but I am applying. I’m also applying to Auburn, University of Chicago, Notre Dame, Boston College, and Johns Hopkins.
As for what I want to study, I intend to
go pre med. I hope to ultimately become a practicing doctor or work in a lab doing research. So I intend to major in chemistry probaly. Possibly chem engineering.</p>
<p>My D1 is a first-year med student at FSU. She selected it (FSU and later, FSU Med) over a number of other schools. In-state annual med tuition is about $18K; out of state over $50K.</p>
<p>Yeah, I am aware JHU and ND are pretty big reaches, but i feel like i would regret not trying. I feel my chances are higher at JHU than ND, though I’m hoping to improve my chances with my October SAT. </p>
<p>Parent2Noles-Thank you for that information. That is something i need to look into. To be honest, I’m not completely set on the medical field as par as potential career paths go, but i feel its probaly my biggest passion.</p>
