Undergraduate / Ohio state app; What I look forward for next 4 years thay may surprise others [6]

I have rewritten one of my college application essays for Ohio State. If someone could proofread and provide some opinion I would appreciate it!

As you think about the next four years, what are you looking forward to that might surprise your friends or family members?

I began to be fond of math when I was only a child. As my curiosity and affection with it grows, as my saying goes, flirt with the numbers. It provides an irreplaceable sense of achievement from which I decided to get a good education in the United States. I have taken part in several mathematics competitions and won good prizes since primary school. And I am always the top student in my class. Gradually, I am surprised to find that math can change the way I think and shaping my character. Math helps me to think in a logical way. Also, having an all-round solution for a given problem encourages me to get a wider known of the world through diversified perspectives.

I always have a specific goal in my major-math. However, none of my family and my friends supported me. In general opinions, it is really hard for a girl to be successful in the field of science subjects. But I have a burning desire to prove myself and chase my academic dream. I major math in university and make greatest effort to be the top 5 percent of students and win the first class scholarship.

In the next four years, I hope that I could graduate from a top school in USA like the Ohio State University and be a mathematician, though my family and my friends might get shocked. I know that chasing my dream really needs courage and I have to face unexpected difficulties. But I will never give up and I have confident in myself.
