Careers In Medical Field List

Justin Said:

I am seriously looking at the Medical field. I love to fix things and love to help people...?

You sound like such an ambitious person! For general career info: http://www.bls.gov/oco and can search 'physicians'. Your local hospital may accept high school students of a certain age in a 'junior volunteer' capacity. Most hospitals and medical centers have their own website with volunteer opportunities (and jobs though must be certain age too) listed or contact information to find out how to get the process started.

Med school btw is supposed to be extremely competitive and one should have stellar grades in both prerequisite courses (the sciences which may include math) as well as overall gpa in undergraduate school (first four years usually leading up to a bachelor's degree), excellent letters of recommendation and a great score on the mcat (medical college admissions test -- that's usually taken while in college).

For general volunteer opportunities: http://www.volunteermatch.org and type into search one's 'zip code' and area(s) of interest.

For US colleges: http://www.utexas.edu/world/univ
