Answer 3

there is no specific class. neurosurgery is considered a specialty in medicine.

to become one-you have to take 4 years of regular college to obtain your bachelors degree. then you have 4 years of medical school. one year as a student surgeon and then 6-7 years training in the hospital setting as a student neurosurgeon!!

you also have to take a board test to become licensed.

this is a wonderful field to work in, but highly stressful b/c it's the most intensive type of surgeon there is-there is no room for mistakes and requires a great deal of patience and skill.

i applaude you for wanting to working in such a high field and would suggest you start looking into this career as soon as possible as it takes so long to complete
