I want to be an Ob/gyn. How hard is it to really become one?
Of course it won't be easy but everyone makes pre-med and med school sound impossible.

Any advice is appreciated!

It is hard to become a physician. It is the hardest course of study you can follow in college. So, what else can we expect. When you become a physician you hold someone's life in your hands every minute of every day. Only the best of the best can be allowed to take on this responsibility.

Best doesn't just mean smartest. It means, most dedicated, most responsible, most determined, most persistant.

So, if you are pretty smart, and you have an iron will to follow your dream, then you will probably succeed. If you would rather play, go out, spend time with your BF, watch TV etc rather than study, then you probably won't make it.

Every year 20,000 students receive the degree of MD. That is just a small fraction of those who started out to become Doctors, but it is the ones who wanted it the most.

If you focus and are determined then you can accomplish anything! You need to get a bachelor's degree in something (really doesn't matter what your major is, but most interested in medical school choose to major in chem or bio) and take the prerequisites for med school. After graduating you have to take the MCAT. If your score is decent enough you can apply to medical schools.

You can find books on medical schools and preparing for the MCAT at any major bookstore.

I was pre-med for a while, but later on decided it wasn't for me. Just try your best and keep your grades above a 3.0, volunteer and study hard for the MCAT. Good luck!
