Hey Admin,how's it goin?Well I was on med-psych,and it said you were a doctor. I hope your really a doctor because I have some questions and I need a few answers.I know that im supposed to go to regular college first and take the basics but what do I take and how long do I take it before i can go and apply to med school, Im really lost and i need you to tell me the process, like a step by step thing,ya know? I need to like know the whole process. Could ya please tell me when you get the chance. Oh and I wanna be a Cosmetic Surgeon, do they offer that because im in Houston Texas. I mean if all goes well do I have to go out of state to train for that or do they offer that here. Thanx alot buddy.Please write me back when you get the chance
A good starting point would be to read the thread: Medical School Requirements
To summarize, you need to take the following classes in college:
1 year biology
1 year chemistry
1 year organic chemistry
1 year physics
And then you'd need to take the MCAT exam and apply to med school.
By "Cosmetic Surgeon", I'm assuming you are referring to a "Plastic Surgeon". I would assume they have residency and fellowship programs in Houston Texas to train for plastics. FYI, Plastic Surgery residency programs are extremely competitive. I think there are a few programs that you can do a 6 year program after medical school, but I think most plastics programs are fellowships after a general surgery residency (5 years general surgery plus 2 years of plastics fellowship) - as I'm not a surgeon, I'm not positive on that.
I'd say you need to first focus on doing well in college and studying those things you want to study. Medical school is a way's away, let alone a residency and fellowship.
