Studying and Preparing for Med school?

Question

I'm a Freshmen in high school and I want to learn as much about medicine in health before Med school or before college. Whats an easy way of doing this?

Answer 1

To tell you the truth you will learn so much during collage and quadruple that during med school, just focus on getting good grades to get into a good collage and go from there.

The best way to prepare now is to start shadowing doctors and getting volunteer hours, preferably in a medical serrounding.

Answer 2

I would just concentrate on doing well in your biology, physics, math, english, and chemistry courses in high school.  There really is no point on learning about medicine until you have a basic understanding of these subjects in order to learn medicine since they are built upon these basic sciences.  In medical school you will have to learn about physiology, anatomy, biochemistry, pharmacology, and then the different ogran systems.  The only thing you might be able to study now is anatomy, but you need to do well in high school first to get into a good college so you can get into a good medical school.

Study hard, but keep your mind open to other careers.  Most importantly, enjoy your high school and college experience.  It only comes once.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

At this point just focus on getting good grades in general so you attend a decent college.  Take advanced AP courses in different subjects if they're offered at your school when you're a junior and senior as it will help reduce your college course load.  And finally, be open to taking interests in other fields than just medicine.  You may find out that medicine is not really for you after all and there's nothing wrong with that.  There are many, many, fields out there.
