How to best prepare for med school?

<p>I'm currently a sophomore in high school, but will finish high school with my associates as well as diploma. I need to know what college gpa to aim for and what college classes to take to increase my chances of getting into med school. Also, is it to early to volunteer at my local hospital?</p>

<p>The only college classes that will have a direct impact on your med school admissions chances are the requirements (you have to take them).</p>

<p>I would aim for a 4.0 GPA but odds are you won’t get there. Anything over 3.6 should be good assuming your MCAT is good.</p>

<p>Yes, I’d also be interested to know what I can do now, as a junior in high school, to help improve my chances of being accepted into med school, especially considering the ridiculously low acceptance rates. Thank you!</p>

<p>^pretty much nothing. Unless the activity continues into college you won’t even list it on your application.</p>
