A member asked:

Any advice for a teenager aspiring to be a doctor? :)

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Volunteer: You might want to volunteer at a hospital, medical clinic, adult home to get a feel for the profession. To get into med school, you will need to demonstrate a desire to learn and ability to stay on task, so do your work in school. Become well rounded by participating in music, sports or other hobbies. Good luck!
