Parents Expectations vs. My own

My parents expectations for me vary. My mother just wants me to "follow my dreams" but she expects me to go through four years of college because she believes I am capable of doing so. However my dad wishes I put in the effort to my high school education in order to receive a large scholarship to a cheaper college. My expectations for my life are to complete a four -year college and get my doctorate in math. I want to become a teacher and what ever college I like the best is the one I will go to given I get accepted no matter the amount of money. I can always work of the debt I leave with college but you can't repeat your college life. Overall, my parents and my own expectations for my life are similar but have a slight difference.
