Hi. My name is Chelci and this upcoming school year I will be a sophomore. I'm getting a late start on what I want to be and I was wondering what courses in high school should I take to become a neonatologist? Do I have to become a pediatrician before becoming a neonatologist? Also, What should I major and minor in? I am completely lost at how to make my dreams come true. This upcoming school year I will be taking Geometry, Advanced band, Biology, Spanish 3, World History, Honors World Lit, health and maybe beginners nursing. Are those courses good? I only have two years of high school left. Should I drop band and start doubling up? Please help
