Pediatrics: It takes a college degree, making sure to take the classes necessary to get into medical school. Simply put, get good grades. MCAT is the entrance exam (like SATS, for college). Then you go to medical school, next, for 4 yrs. After you graduate, you begin your residency, where you learn to be a pediatrician. It's usually 3 more years; more if you want to specialize. It's also verrrrrry expensive.
