What are some Associate Degrees in the medical field that can be pursued?
My name is Faith. I want to go to University of Southern Florida or Hillsborough Community College in Florida. I have been working with kids and special needs kids since I was in 5th grade. I adore my church and am willing to go the extra mile. I have been thinking about my profession a lot, and everytime I go back to something medical. I want to have a family and get married young, so I only want to be in actual college for 2 years. I am 16 and have the schedule of an adult if not busier.
