Fanuilos asked:

I am currently considering a career in medical examing and/or forensic pathology. What undergraduate major is best? My guess would be most likely premedicine? If not, please tell me what you think is best for me, I, of course, would have to attend medical school after undergraduate college, so I need something that would fulfull the medical school requirements.

Candyie-ApuLe asked:

I am currently a Sophomore attending a Private Highschool. I am taking honors Mathematics and Native Spanish. My Current GPA is a 3.76. I know that isn’t great, but i am continuously working on it. I was wondering, what type of college should I apply to if i haven’t taken any Pre-Medical courses in High School? Also can any one tell me a good college that I should attend that has a good medical or pre-medical program?

-Thanks!

R J asked:

I have heard that the number of seats is limited due to professional medical organizations limiting the universities. I wanted to know if there was any basis to this.

Parames asked:

Medical studies are conducted in hospitals during 3rd year of medical studies.I have a friend who is trying very hard to get her medical school to provide the university’s own bus transport from the university’s hostel to the hospital. The university’s management has refused to do so.But next week they are giving her a chance to speak her mind.Please help contribute a few points to help her win the case.She is all on her own.
THANK YOU.

chicklet asked:

I know one has to volunteer at a hospital and do outside research, but what distinguishes one applicant from another in terms of admission? What are some noteworthy extracurriculars? Joining on-campus organizations or student council? Is volunteer work in general non-medical related also acceptable? Can someone who got accepted to medical school please list their application statistics and any outside involvement?

sociguru asked:

Just want to know if anyone has gone through medical school and had a baby. My husband wants to have a child, but I’ve not been happy with the idea since I am planning to go to medical school next year. I love children, but I don’t want to be neglectful towards my own child and want to focus on school. How difficult will it be to attend med school and take care of a kid at the same time?
Well, if there is a medical school that offers courses online, make sure that you do not go see the doctor who graduated from that university. LOL!!!

Sweetie asked:

I am planning to pursue a career in medicine in the future. I want to know what I am able to do at this age that involves anything in the medical field such as volunteering or shadowing a physician.

I live in New York so if you find any volunteer opportunities in hospitals or clinics available to high school students in New York please post them below.
