Pre-Med & Medical School High School Student Topics

<p>I'm a senior in High School and graduating in 2010. So i've been looking at colleges lately, and my main goal is go to into the medical field/become a doctor. I really need assistance for taking the right path, i know so far that to get into med school there are pre-required courses that i need in order to apply. However, i know alot of people who usually graduate with a BS/BA with something related to bio or chem. I want to major in computer engineering and i was thinking if this was a good path?</p>

<p>To take classes and major with a computer engineering degree, then go to med school. I want to know if this will be a hard task, because i dont know if the classes for comp engineering will help benefit me to med school.</p>

<p>What do you guys think? Please help me out.</p>

<p>I’d recommend checking out the stickied threads in the Pre-Med Topics forum, starting with this one:

<p>That should answer a lot of your questions.</p>

<p>Sure, if that’s what you want to major in go for it. You wouldn’t be the first. You might have to take a few more credits overall, depending on how many electives you can use to take pre-med classes, but overall it shouldn’t be imposible. At the worst you could take a class or two over the summer.</p>
