Hey, you people rock!!!// I have a few questions relating to medicine (DUH!) But before I ask them I will just say something briefly about me. I am in a community college completing the Nursing program. I will be graduating 2010 as a nurse with an associates degree. I have no pre meds. And I also have not done any research or any volunteer work. I am 21 years old and have a wife and a kid - Matthew 2 months / 2 weeks. Eversince I was 14 I was interested in the Human body ---ect......
I would like to know what are the steps into becoming a Neurosurgeon and Cardiovascularsurgeon ( Heart Surgeon )?
After a year of working as a Nurse I will be going back to school to get my B.S. degree. Of course I would be obataining my pre-meds but my major is still not writen-in-stone.
What B.S. degrees do surgeons earn? Can anyone / surgeon or med student/ tell me what B.S. degree they earned and why a B.S. in that field?
What major do you think or know could prepare me the best to A`s (ace) the MCAT/ and get into med school ?
What do you think prepared you the most for your MCAT? ( SORRY IF I AM OFF CONTEXT or going into a tangent )
What will in college and out of college prepare me the most on becoming a surgeon nevertheless a medstudent?
By the way I will be doing missionary work in the future as a surgeon / maybe as a neurosurgeon. I will be going to the Dominican Republic and other countries that would appreciate free surgery- not like the USA does not appreciate it but D.R. is my parents homeland. If the medical field for some reason were not to be an option for me I would go into Law and help the misrepresented and minorities.
Please respond with as much info as possible. Anyone can answer!!! -- Thanks
