is it worth for me to study pre-med ... is it a bad thing to study??? or what ...would it get me to med school

Answer 1

Studying is not a bad thing and anybody who tells you that it is, is indeed wrong! You need to study in order to get into college and have a career of your dreams. However, how are your grades? What are your interests? Will you like pre-med?

Personally, I'm majoring in a science course in college but I'm not sure yet whether I'll be doing Pre-Med. It's a HUGE decision!!!!!

E-Mail me if you have more questions!

Sincerely,

Andrew

Answer 2

If it is a pre-med major, don't do it--you still may not get accepted to medical school, and then you won't be able to do anything with your college degree. If it is a pre-med program, you should just do it--you can still pick any major you want.

There's not any one major that is best for getting into medical school. However, doing a Chemistry or a Biology major might be helpful--at least you are learning a lot of the science that is on the MCAT if you pick one of those majors. And you can still get a career with either of those majors, if your dream doesn't work out.

Answer 3

Boy are there some really bad answers here!

OK, to get the exact facts about med school go to the website of the Association of American Medical Schools. AAMC. They have detailed information about this.

The short answer is, very few schools have a "premed" major, and it is not required for med school. The large majority of med school students majored in biology or chemistry when they were doing their BA or BS degree. To get into med school you need about a 3.4 to 3.7 GPA in your science courses. You need to get about a 28 to 30 or better on your MCAT exam. The MCAT exam requires an excellent knowledge of physics, chem, bio and math. In addition there are some other things that med schools look for. When you are at college the Premed Advisor will work with you to be sure that you are creating a good resume that will make you look good to the med schools.

Each year about 40,000 kids with excellent resumes apply to med school in the USA and about 18,000 of them are accepted.

It is a tough challenge, but those 18,000 kids have met the challenge and will become MDs. You can, too, if you have the determination to do it.

Answer 4

pre-med is hard, but worth it in the end

my brother jus got done with his pre-med JR yr in college, and he said its the hardest yr yet. studying mcat and such

its funny cuz people like to talk about the doctors huge salary all the time. they never think about the **** they had to go through

grad school i herd is suppose to be a bit easier, cuz they spoonfeed the material to you-and very expensive tuition

JUST MAKE SURE this is the career you want to go to, and always aim high, cuz medical skool admission is harder then you think

so in summery, its hard work-but worth it in the end

Answer 5

it will get you in to med school

Answer 6
