I have always wanted to be a Doctor . I dropped out of High School at 16 and got my GED at 17. I am very smart with medicine and come from a medical background. Is it possible to get into Med. School. If so how ? I really would like to find out. Thanks Everyone.

Yes you can! It'll take awhile. You'll probably have to start at community college (but that's not necessarily true I know some people who have got into university with GED). Take a year or two at community college and then transfer to a four year university. Make sure they offer a pre-med. major and if not major in science such as biology or human physiology. You will be on the same track once you get your Bachelors degree as everyone else. You might be a bit older, or not, are you seventeen now? If you are you can start community college or a university even if you are under 18. Anyways once you get your Bachelor's degree you'll want ot apply to med. school. So you just have to worry about doing well once you get into college, getting your GED doesn't really affect you poorly.
To get started with all of this you'll need to fill out a FAFSA to apply for financial aid. Just type FAFSA into google.
Hope this helps.

First u should apply for the colleges u would like to go to and if they decline u finish your years up in high school and try again. It's that simple and I'm 11.
