is there any schools in houston to become a doctor??

Question

i attend uhd i wanted to major in law but i have changed my mind and i want to become a doctor, i want to stay in the houston area but i dont know any universities that offer the program to become a doctor. UH offers optometrist but i want to b a general doctor or the one that specifies like in injuries such as gunshots and stabs. im still a freshman in college but i want to know what classes or if i should get a b.s or a masters before entering medical school. if there isnt any medical schools in houston, what are the closest ones??

Answer 1

First of all, you should get a BS in pre-med which I believe may be offered at UH. A pre-med is the best option to gain entrance into med school. If they do not have a catalog listing for pre-med, speak to a counselor there and see if they have all the courses required for a pre-med. That is acceptable to med-schools.

For medical school UT has one in Houston

Answer 2

You are clearly clueless about this tiopic, so before you make any commitment, you should do some research ( I mean, real research, not asking quesitons on Yahoo!) and see what the options are.

Getting into medical school is tough. There are a lot of people who have been planning on studying medicine since they were kids. You are at a strong disadvantage compared to them until you read up on this and check it out carefully.

And, you dont have a lot of time to do this either, because you need to be taking the Med School required courses -- you need to be doing that right away. Hope you did well in math and chemistry in High School - you are going to love college organic chemistry, calculus and physics! :)
