Am i right for medical school?

<p>Hi..my name is ashley..im 16 years old..i have a 3.4 GPA im not in any sports but i love biology and learning..i also am very passionate about helping others and i love working with people..but im not all that great in math..i get good grades in math but i have to work extremely hard for the grade..i have wanted to be in medical school since i could remember..but i dont know if i have what it takes..can anyone give me some advice PLEASE!!!!!</p>

<p>Ash- I think it's awsome that you have a passion to help people- let that passion fuel you to do well in maths! How are your other sciences like bio,chem etc? You see most people who want to become dotors and such lack that extremely important factor- I have it - but I also have my limits :) I admire you for wanting to help people ! Good Luck!</p>

<p>thanx for replying..i have always gotten A's in bio and science..i have not taken chem. yet..i get to take those next year..i also plan to do volunteer work and i am going to take a class that teaches CPR and the basic stuff like bones and muscles next year..im pretty psyched..do you have any other suggestions that would help me get into a good med. school</p>

<p>You shouldn't worry about getting into medical school now. Just concentrate on enjoying and doing well in high school. When it comes time to begin the college search, find premed programs that you like. This shouldn't necesarilly be the most competitive, cutthroat program. Nothing you do in high school will directly "help" you get into med school. Save that for college.</p>

<p>yah I agree with Jackson - just make sure you do what you need to do to get into a good college ... cross the med school bridge when you come to it !</p>
