I want to become a pediatrician and i've had my mind on this since i was in the 6th grade, but i'm having trouble finding some medical schools to go to, OR a University that is Medical related where i can work on becoming a pediatrician.
Preferably a University or Medical School in California. Thank you in advance.

There are many medical schools in California. But first, you must finish college.
To get into medical school, you need to check each medical school's requirements to see what courses they want you to take in college. They don't care what major you are, they just want to see you fulfill those courses and take the MCAT, along with extra currics and other items you likely needed to get into college.
The best med schools in California are Stanford and UCSF. However, med school is so hard to get into that you'll consider yourself lucky if you get into any. However, since you asked for some great ones...
Besides Stanford and UC San Francisco, there's also UCLA, UC Davis, UC Irvine, and USC. There are others, but those are the "best".
