What classes should I take?

Question

I wanna be a doctor I just start college, and I gonna get a degree in science . but what other classes should I take ?

Answer 1

Do NOT major in pre-med. At most universities it is only a program and not a major. Pre-med refers to a program in which you take a bunch of science classes which are pre-requisite classes to most if not all of the medical schools in the U.S. and other countries. The pre-med program consists of the following classes: Biology 1 & 2, general chemistry 1 & 2, organic chemistry 1 & 2, physics 1 & 2, and all of these classes need associated labs with them. Other than these science courses, you will need to complete english, math, and psychology courses. When you start undergrad, go with the pre-med program and major in whatever interests you. A lot of people come to college thinking that they want to go to medical school, but they later change their minds. Major in whatever interests you so that if you decide not to go to medical school you will have a degree which you can use.
When you complete these science courses you can take the MCAT (medical college admissions test), and apply to medical schools. It is extremely competitive and grades alone are not going to get you in. Get involved in research, volunteer, and other extracurricular activities. Most important activity is to volunteer/shadow physicians at a hospital because before you commit to such a demanding career, you should be sure that this is something that you want to do. Exposing yourself to healthcare will allow you to examine the profession and decide for yourself if this is something that you really want.
The first two years of medical school is hardcore science courses such as biochemistry, physiology, anatomy, microbiology, etc. At the end of these two years you will have to take USMLE step I (united states medical licensing exam). The final two years are clinical clerkships, in which you are a student at a hospital and do different rotations (surgery, internal medicine, OBGYN, etc.). At the end of your third year you will have to take USMLE step II and clinical skills knowledge and assessment test. After these four years you receive your MD degree and start residency, which is further training but you will be completely responsible for your patients

Answer 2

First Class.

Answer 3

your college will have certain classes you must take. In addition, you probably want to take additional classes that require you to write. Writing is a necessary skill in any field, and most people do not write well. A good understanding of history is important to understanding where the world is now and where it might go. History does repeat, andyou will understand it better if you take some classes. I would take a psychology class to help you better understand people. Fitness classes are a good idea to helpyou stay fit in the long years of study you have ahead.

Answer 4

Just take all of the generals if you're just starting out. You might decide after a few science classes that you don't want to be a doctor anymore (the majority of pre-med students decide against medicine). So if you take MOSTLY your generals, then if you do decide to switch majors, it won't be too hard to switch.

Answer 5

Speech. English, Many Math. What kind of doctor? You should take anatomy.

Answer 6

You should obviously also take a course in medicine. A few classes on latin and greek won't go amiss either (prescriptions).
