I remember a few years ago I was on YouTube and somehow I came across a video of an autopsy. I watched it from beginning to end, and I thought it was amazing. It made me look at the human body and human life in a completely different way, so much so, I immediately fell in love with medicine.
Fast forward to about now. Since then, I always do research about anything medical related and I like to teach myself here and there and I like to watch open heart surgery videos and to this day I still think it’s a beautiful sight. I’m in high school right now, but never took Chem or Physics but I plan on taking Chem next year so going into college would be just a little bit smoother as far as taking pre req science courses go.
Before I go into my question, I feel like medicine is my calling because I’m willing to give up my life for this career, and I understand I will be working many many many hours a week, and I understand that I’m gonna have to miss many family occasions. I’m willing to lose it all to become a doctor because I know what comes with it.
I love math and science, especially math. However, I don’t really find Chem or Physics or those pre requisite classes really interesting, but I find medical science such as anatomy and physiology, pharmacology, etc. to be very interesting. I know taking the pre reqs is just one of the hurdles needed to get over to get to medical school. I’m just concerned that just because I don’t find pre req sciences interesting, will that make it harder for me to the point that should I reconsider my career choice?
(By the way, I don’t see myself doing anything else.)
