<p>I'm interested, or as interested as a 16 year-old can be, in doing a JD/PhD (Philosophy) program. I will graduate from high school in 2 more years with around 85 college-credit hours (15 AP, 60 Dual-Enrollment). I'm hoping major in chemistry and philosophy, and to attend my state's flagship, which will accept 64 credit hours, allowing additional courses to still meet requirements.</p>
<p>Because of dual-enrollment, I will be charged 150% tuition after my 4th semester at the flagship, and my family cannot really afford this (we have an EFC of $0). I'm concerned that, because all of my general-education courses, 4 chemistry courses, and all of my required science courses will have been completed at a community-college, graduate-schools will not really take me seriously. Is this the case, and are there any other steps I should take during the next 4 years? Would it, for instance, be best to let grad-schools and other programs think I'm a regular community-college transfer-student, or explain my situation and draw attention to the fact I'll be a 20 year-old graduate-student?</p>
<p>Thank you, I don't want to be on the fast-track to screwing up my life.</p>
