<p>You have no issues so far with the first 0.1% of being a premed. Keep it up.</p>

<p>get off of CC right now! you are a freaking freshman. please don’t ruin the next four years of your life by worrying about being a doctor</p>

<p>As the Premed Magic Eightball (patent pending) would say:
“Ask again later. Like in 3 years.”</p>

<p>In the meantime just make sure you do well in your classes.</p>

<p>General guidelines:</p>

<ol>
<li> Have fun. Enjoy your youth and friends. Play.</li>
<li> Take physics, chemistry, anatomy and physiology and aim for AP Calculus.</li>
<li> Take a foreign language - as many years as you can fit.</li>
<li> Take literature and humanities and maybe a music course.</li>
<li> Read good books, newspapers and high-quality magazines even if you have to work to understand them. Stretch yourself on your own schedule with recreational reading. </li>
<li> Play sports…learn to be a team player and win and lose with honor and grace.</li>
<li> Volunteer at whatever worthy cause you like…pick the one you like best. Don’t spread yourself too thin…quality rather than quantity.</li>
<li> Be honest and develop a high degree of integrity if you haven’t already. Religious activities help with things like this.</li>
<li> Learn about medicine as much as you can…volunteer and see the seamy side.</li>
<li> Did I say have fun? :)</li>
<li> Be physically fit. (This effort never stops, btw)</li>
