That is pretty hard to answer, but NOT a community college, the University of Chicago is very good, one of the most renowned schools around for sciences, hell, they're the ones that did the first atomic reaction :)

There are no "pre-medical" schools. What you should be doing is taking care of all your "general education" requirements and then transfer to a 4 year college. Use the last 2 or 3 years at the 4 yr college to get a bachelor degree in something (making sure to fulfill all the course requirements a medical school requires). Then, after you graduate, you attend medical school to become a doctor.

Same thing applies to being a psychologist, except that instead of going to medical school after undergrade, you go for a PhD in Psychology. You may have to get a master's degree in btw the undergrad and PhD program.

You may want to do a search -Medical School info for example the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston Medical School offers information and resources for prospective and current students.
www.med.uth.tmc.edu

I believe you can also find information through the United States Government Department of Education website. Hope this helps, and good luck.

I doubt Cambridge has sunk so low. 'Wanna' is 'want to' and a collage is something A level art students do - sticking bits of other people's work onto canvas to make something which might be considered original. There may be many collages in Cambridge, but I think you mean College.

If you want to become an MD you should not go to a community college. You should go to the best four year college that you can get into.
