<p>Hello, I am interested in the Dermatology field, a would like to know more about it. I want to know on average, how much schooling it will take, (I am a freshman in college now.) I would also like to know if it is a stressful career, the average salary, and etc. THank you</p>
<p>To become a dermatologist, you have to complete a bachelor's degree (4 years) as well as the pre-med courses, complete a MD degree (4 years), and a dermatology residency (about 4 years). Currently dermatology is a very competitive field, so you'll need top grades/exam scores, and recommendations to get into the residency. Some people have called it the "lifestyle friendly" field of medicine (which is why it's so hard to get a residency). </p>
<p>You can Google the average salary.</p>
