Medical Schools?

Question

I understand I am a little young, but I think it is never too early to chase your dreams. So I was wondering if anyone knew any good websites for medical schools. Not one in particular just information on some medical schools. Like requirements and what not.

I don't have a favorite college...I'm in the 8th Grade I just know that I want to be pediatrition because I have already made that decision.....

Answer 1

The term you should be using is "pre-med curriculum". Go to the websites of colleges you may be interested in attending and put in those words in their search engine. All med schools have pretty much the same pre-requisites, and all the colleges can fulfill those with a pre-med course of study.

If you use a general search engine, pay attention only to those sites with .edu at the end.

Answer 2

to go to med school you have to major in something else first for your undergra major. they prefer science major so make sure in high school you take as many science and math classes as you. you might want to take science and math instead of normal fun electives. 2nd in ur junior year of undergrad school you have to take MCAT'S, they are sort of like high school SAT's. its important that you score high on that test because colleges use to to make decisions about accepting u or not in med school. you would want to do nothing but study in high school because you want to get in to a good undergrad college. another way is the way i am taking that i am going to community college first. you have to have a really high GPA and you can't afford to get low grades and mostly good schools have way to many people in one class. for example the school i want to go to has 1000 students in there biology class. so i am inshallah going to go to community college for 2 years first then transfer to a 4 yearuniversity. DOctors go to college for 8-10 years and in the end students get sick of the school so its better to take as much time as possible in community colleges... however you can only do lower division classes in community colleges so you have to transfer to a 4 year university after 2 years. if you do decide to go to a community college make sure ur school ( u want to go to ) accepts there degree and dont lose track. its easy to take fun classes at community college then you might lose track of ur dream...good luck
