How do I convince my mom to let me go to my first choice university?

@thumper1 Quote from the OP: “I know Auburn’s acceptance rates to med-school are not quite as high as UNC Chapel Hill’s, but if I end up deciding against following through with a profession in the medical field, I know that Auburn has a plethora of other opportunities for me to choose from, including Engineering, which has always been another interest of mine.”
