Answer #1

Speak with your school guidance counselor to ensure you’re taking the right courses now to prepare you for med school…I wish you the best !!

Answer #2

my aunt went to medical school and said you really have to watch your grades, we are talking pretty much all A’s. just keep up on the work adn work hard

Answer #3

I would start by taking biology, chemistry, physics, english and stats at school. English (especially the communication side of it) is important because doctors dont just have to be good with sciences, they need to be able to work well with other medical professionals and their patients. they need to be able to empathise with people. In NZ (and australia too I believe, not sure about the rest of the world) to get into med school you need to sit an exam called UMAT which tests things like logic and people skills. I know a lot of people who have not got in to med school based on their test results showing little or no people skills.
