Hahaha. Dude I am in the United States, on the east coast precisely. grin

Suddenly you've forgotten she's Nigerian and how Nigerian parents react when you tell them you want to study Biology when your mates are studying Engineering, Law, Medicine etc.

With the scholarship from Stanford, she's going there to study ordinary biology. Ewo. Please if you know her mother here in Nigeria you better go and talk to her to talk sense into her daughter. Waste of scholarship money. Mtchew.

Francis - are you really in the US? Because - your post suggests some1 who doesn't understand how things are in America.

Lombardi:
Prince George's County Student Accepted to 14 Colleges

A talented high school student in Prince George's County has a big decision to make soon -- she was accepted to 14 colleges and universities, including Harvard, Princeton and Stanford.

Olawunmi Akinlemibola, a senior at DuVal High School in Lanham, Maryland, was accepted to Ivy League schools, the University of Maryland and several other institutions.

The 18-year-old has a 4.15 GPA and already has earned college credit. She works hard for her success, her guidance counselor, Stacy Kline, said.
"I'm just amazed by her," she said. "It's the internal drive that she has."

Akinlemibola said her family's support is key. She lives with her father, but her mother and two sisters are home in Nigeria, where she was born. In a recent interview, she began to cry as she spoke about her mother.

"Even though she's not here physically, she takes care of me. Emotionally, she provides a lot of support," the student said. She hopes her family will be reunited this year.

Akinlemibola said part of what drives her to succeed is a sense that she has opportunities her parents didn't have.
"They’ve just gone through so much, and it's like, this is like the least I can do, is do well in school," she said.
Here's where Akinlemibola was accepted, according to WTOP:

Emory University
Brown University
University of Maryland, Baltimore County
University of Maryland, College Park
Swarthmore College
Grinnell College
Amherst College
University of Chicago
Duke University
Stanford University
Cornell University
Princeton University
Harvard University
University of Pennsylvania

Akinlemibola said Stanford is the front-runner. She would study biology and, with scholarships, pay just $300 per year in tuition.

And here comes another one. What exactly is wrong with studying biology again?
Must every creature on this earth "read medicine" ?
You don't even know if that is her natural passion and interest as a person.

Actually - I am shocked that a mod is this clueless. The guy has reasoning issues.

Well, my point is with all that brains, supposedly, and scholarship money she really should have aimed higher. I know this is America and anybody can be great at any course and that is understood for an average student, but not when you have proven to be this good in academics. You sef check am na.

She is happy doing what she loves, and if it is Biological science, so be it. cheesy
Btw: how do you even know the Biology isn't just her pre-medical course? You say you are in the US..... Tell me who leaves high school straight into university to start medicine? undecided

You are the one adding extraneous stories to what it is. Yes, there's pre-med and anybody who wants to be a doctor here in the US will not tell you they want to study biology or chemistry, but rather they'll tell you they want to be a doctor and going through pre-med is a step before becoming a doctor. However, this teenager said specifically that she wants to study Biology, not medicine. Well, 4 years from now, we'll see if she becomes the doctor you assume she wants to be.

Guy - their is no such thing as an ordinary science course. Their are many hard research problems in biology that are yet to be solved. Somebody is got to solve them. You are not making any sense. You might be in US but did not leave your sad Nigerian mentality behind. You still don't get it.

I wasn't assuming she wants to become a doctor. I clearly stated in the preceding paragraph that if that is what she wants or likes, then fine.
I was just asking how sure you were that it was the case, since you alluded that "her mates were aiming higher", and her scholarship was a "waste of money"

She wasn't the one who said "I want to become a Biologist". The article simply says that is what she would be studying at her university of choice.
