Honestly, I don't think any of the classes helped prepare me for medical school. I think classes are teaching you to learn and think. I have told everyone to be a scribe. When I had medical students doing their externship, those students did the best. Normally, I would say to learn how to deal with people but if you are being an anesthesiologist, that won't matter as much.
Thank you so much for the advice.

To pave your way towards a successful career in medicine right from high school, it's crucial to solidify your understanding of basic sciences. This will act as a stepping stone for your pre-med studies in college or university. Make sure to explore introductory courses in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics at the very least, based on what's available to you.
Beyond the realm of physical sciences, don't overlook the importance of social sciences like Psychology and Sociology. These subjects can provide valuable insights into human behavior, which is a key aspect of medicine. If you're thinking about where you might want to practice medicine in the future, consider learning Spanish to improve your communication skills, if you haven't already done so.
Once you step into college, be proactive and join the pre-med club or a similar organization on campus. Many colleges have dedicated faculty advisors who are there specifically to guide students like you who are passionate about pursuing a career in medicine. They can provide invaluable assistance in choosing the right courses and preparing for medical school.
Lastly, don't limit your learning to the classroom. Seek out real-world experiences through job shadowing or volunteering opportunities in the medical field. These experiences can provide a practical perspective on your studies and help you understand the dynamics of the medical profession better. Remember, every step you take now is a step closer to your dream of becoming a medical professional. Keep pushing forward!
