*Primarily Looking for answers from anyone who majored in psychology to become a psychiatrist, but any answers from any type of psychiatrist is fine*
I'm currently in college majoring in psychology to become a child/adolescent psychiatrist. Many people have told me to major in pre-Med but I know I won't excel in that major because of the difficult science courses, so I decided to do something I'm more interested in, psychology.
Anyways, as I'm looking through med school admission requirements, I see most of them require science courses. How am I going to get into any med school w/o the proper science courses if I don't want to major in pre-med and deal with the science classes?
What type of schooling did you go through to become a psychiatrist?
