1) Get good grades. Try for a 3.6 GPA or above.

2) Take all the hard Math & Science courses, AP if you can. Take up to Calculus; take Biology, Anatomy & Physiology (if it’s offered); take Chemistry & Physics.

3) Colleges want well-rounded Pre-med students, now, so join one club or sport, too.

4) To be sure you want to be one, do volunteer work (maybe 4 hrs./ week in a clinic or medical-type setting, if possible. ) Or at least read nonfiction or semi-fiction books on the lives of doctors, like *The Intern*, etc., so you know what it’s like. I especially liked the autobiography of the former Surgeon General Everett Koop.

5) Talk to doctors, to see what their lives are like.

6) Consider 2 years of community college, for your General Ed. requirements, to save up your money for your BS degree & med school.

Good luck!!

Pay very close attention in biology, chemistry, and math. Take the highest level and hardest of these that you can.

Pay attention to everything else too – but these are critical. Develop your written and spoken communication skills.

Keep your grades up but also make sure you do other things. An art, a sport, and a social life. You want to be more than very well learned – you want to be well rounded as well.

If you havent already study for the SAT and build on your vocab. Even if you learn a word a day, I suggest more but one is better than nothing. Also if you are really into being a doctor read journals and publications, if you educate yourself early you might learn what type of doctor you want to be. Another thing is researching medical schools and what things you need to get into those schools.

Go to a guidance counselor in your school. Get a book from the university (usually free) you might be interested in to see what the requirements are for that specific major. Then plan your high school courses to meet the critiera. Take all the courses you can in high school that are relevant to your goal of medicine. There are many training programs out there in junior college level before going to a four-year university.

Focus on what area of medicine you are most interested in.

I say you are. I have no problem with 15 year olds having sex. It just makes me feel bad because Im 17 & Im gonna die a virgin because no girl wants me. But you should defidently shave your pubic hair off before you have sex. Here is how to shave your pubic hair: 1st cut the hairs short. Apply conditioner or something creamy to the pubic area. Then shave upwards in the opposite direction of the hairs with a 5-bladed razor. Be sure to shave hard to make it smooth. Afterwords to avoid getting beginners side effects wash the area off with acne cleanser or anti-bacterial dishwasher soap. It only takes me 5 minutes to shave it & I shave about 3x a week. If done right you will be incredibly smooth like me. If you do experience beginners side effects don’t panic, just put acne cream on the bumps, pop them if you can, keep up the shaving routine, & they should go away within a month. It’s just like starting a new medicine. You can also get it removed permanently with electrolysis which is painful & costs $55 an hour. I’ve gotten 3 treatments on my pubic hair. Email me for more info about it. Here are the benefits of pubic hair removal: 1st of all the absence of pubic hair is alot more erotic & sensational. It’s easier to get sexually excited & masturbate. You’ll feel sexier, younger, & more naked when you’re naked. If you’re a girl your guy will be able to see your vagina when you’re naked. For girls it makes their periods easier to clean up because the hair just traps in blood & junk. It’s cleaner because hair traps in odors & dirt & is one less thing to wash when you take a shower. One of the reasons I started shaving is because pubic hair was a distraction when I saw that area, I would kill time twirling the hairs. Pubic hair can get caught in stuff like your zipper. & you won’t leave long gross hairs on the toilet or in the bath. I’ve got a blog posted on my profile about why there’s nothing wrong with pubic hair removal that you & everybody else should read. I believe my answer is the best & would appreciate it if you chose it best.
