Education & Reference - 9 January 2007

I am going to start medical school next year. I am 23 years old, and a college graduate. I am hoping to claim, for financial aid purposes, that I am an "independent" student, because from what I have heard my award will be better.
Will my ability to do this be affected by my status in filing federal tax forms? I am currently employed full-time, so it would be possible either for me to claim myself for an exemption, or my father to claim me as a dependent. I am hoping to find out which is better, strategically, for applying for financial aid this year.

I am currently 17 years old and still enrolled in high school. However, a career in the medical field has always interested me, and I would like to get a head start by learning about the daily experiences of doctors, or about what kind of courses are taken in pre-med and medical school. I also think that it would be amazing to start reading about different types of biology and other things that are taught in pre-med. Are there any good websites or books for this?

If I take an AP course which the only one I'm elegiable to take this year is AP Biology as an elective. If I take it will it count towards a science credit in college or a Biology credit? As if it's a biology credit what determines that you are going to take biology in the first place to use that credit? I was thinking it was just a regular science credit but was not sure. Please provide some insight on AP classes I'm new to this and this year is the first year I'm elegiable for these and the next 2 (Jr. & Sr.) will open up another good 10-12 that I can try for.

I am a freshman at Houston Baptist University, I have a 4.0 GPA after the first quarter and will probably have one through the next. I have very little extra curricular because since the age of 16 I have been working 30 plus hours a week. I have worked my way to Finance Manager at the company I work at. Whats my chances? Be brutal.

Also would transferring into a liberal arts then internally into the business school be wise?
