"I had a personal goal of achieving my associate's degree while still in high school. I wanted to graduate from high school and college simultaneously, so I could fast track my career. I was fortunate enough to be living with my parents, who supported me and allowed me to pursue my studies without having to work. With the heavy workload at school, I had to give up sports and most social events for those two years. But, I achieved my goal of graduating from high school and college a week apart. And, I was able to maintain a 3.9 GPA in high school and a 3.5 GPA in college."
