I have to take fine arts at my school, but which should I choose if I want to be a doctor? Does it matter at all?

My school has a fine arts requirement to graduate. I would like to become a doctor and am not very interested in art. What genre of classes are best for my situation? My school offers choir, band, orchestra, theatre arts, visual arts, dance, technical theatre, and art history at various levels and subgenres. Does it even matter that much and should I choose any of them? This is high school, by the way!

Is kinesiology or child development better for a high school student looking into medicine?

I'm selecting my 9th grade classes. I have no idea if other schools do this, but we have to create a "career plan" and select classes for all four years of high school. Between the classes of kinesiology (my high school's course catalog defines it as studying the effects of exercise on the body and studying skeletal, muscular, and neural movements) and child development (working with and talking to young children, earning CPR and first aid qualifications along the way), which is better if I would like to become a premed student in college? I specifically am interested in orthopedics or becoming a surgeon.

Why do some US and Canadian medical schools not accept international students? I was making some research on some medical schools but I noticed that most of them don't admit international students? If I obtain my bachelor's degree in a US or Canadian university, would I still be considered an international student who is ineligible to get into those particular medical schools. Or could I get in like other US/Canadian citizens if I attend undergraduate school there?

I just graduated from secondary school.

What are some things I need to be doing as a sophomore in high school if I want to pursue a career in the medical field?

I am currently 15 years old and a sophomore in high school. I take all the highest-level classes I can, including one AP and three honors, and I finished last year ranked #5 in my class with a 102% average. I'm a part of many clubs at school, including the Red Cross Club, the Community Service Club, the SADD/SAVE Promise Club, the Newspaper Club, the Drama Club, and our school's P.R.I.D.E Team. I also do community theatre outside of school. I'm looking to start volunteering at a local hospital soon, but besides that, what else should I be doing?
