What is neccessairy to be a doctor?

Question:What will i need through out my secoundry school and othere education to have a career as a doctor?

Answers:
Excellent grades, volunteering at a clinic/hospital and good references from professors and such.

You usually need a 4 year undergraduate degree in a physical science then apply to med school. You will spend approx. 4 years in med school then move onto an resident position for approx. 2 years at a clinic/hospital, after which you will write an exam for your license.
LOL!!
Spelling correctly always helps...
If you can write as bad as you spell you're more than half way there!
Hi apart from the fun loving answers about spelling and so on its important to think about the British system.
It ALWAYS helps if you have a doctor in the family.
Plenty of money it costs a fortune.
Th school you are attending is also important if its a fairly low achieving Secondary school you may want to transfer in the later years say year 10 or 11 to a Grammar School this is usually fairly straight forward.
The whole system is very old school tie.
A levels in Maths, English, ALL Sciences, The minimum is usually 6 or 7 depending on the Uni at ONE sitting.
They must all be top grades so all A's.
It helps if you can get some voluntary back ground work in health care.
And a GAP year in a foreign country volunteering in a health related industry i.e Volunteering in AIDS orphanages in Africa would be perfect.
Then start applying.
Unfortunately many of our places are given to overseas students who can pay up front for the course and come here on study visas.
Good luck to you and Diabetology is an excellent area to specialise in.
