Okay, So I'm only 13, and am in a program at my school, AVID (Advanced Via Individual Determination), It's like a class with kids that have the ability to go to college and succeed but not a good chance because they're less likely to go without a parent that hasn't gone. Anyways, I just don't understand college. Like Undergraduate and then college after your first four years?

I really don't know what I want to do when I get older, but I want to know what to expect. In Mind I want to either be a Lawyer, Judge, Doctor, or something to do with writing, literature.

What I want to know is what are all the different degrees? What comes after the four years of college as an undergraduate? For each degree do you have to go to school for a long time more, if so how long for each level up? What classes and requirements do I need to succeed and get up to a high degree? What's with the starting out in one college and then moving up to a better one?

I really am striving to get the best education, and get to my dream school (Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Columbia, Duke, Princeton, Brown, Oxford) or at least to my second or third choice schools which are obviously not as high of hopes.

Thanks for any answers(:
