<p>Chances are, I will not get into Stanford. I really want to earn something from Stanford in my life, whether it be a BS, MS, or PhD. Most likely I will be graduating from the University of Florida. If I get a B.S. in say, Industrial Engineering (called management science and engineering at Stanford), and do really well at UF, can I get into Stanford for Grad School?</p>
<p>Being in college, I will be prepared, unlike high school when I had no idea what I was doing in ninth and tenth grade.</p>
<p>Also, do you think this may actually be better in the long run, due to the fact that my undergraduate degree will cost almost no money?</p>
