Vocational Inquiry
I got heart surgery about 2 years ago and since then I have stuck to the idea of being in the health field. I KNOW I want to be a Cardiologist. However, I don't know if I want to be a surgeon or physician. I had asked my cardiologist what classes they thought I should take and they said AP Math and/or Intro Physics. I took AP Statistics last year and I am currently taking AP English Language and Macroeconomics. I wanted to take AP Biology next year and get a job so I don't think I can do both. I wanted to ask: -Which one of the two classes should I take? -Are there any common classes for both surgeons and physicians? -What classes should I take if I choose to be a surgeon? a physician? -What major do I have to choose to become a cardiologist? Is there a best choice? -Do colleges want to see some sort of job experience or internship on resumes? If so, is there a minimum? -Would college care if I pass an AP class but fail the exam? Would it look bad on me? -What does a day as a cardiologist look like? For surgeons? Physicians? -Who do I go to if I want an internship? Do I have to find one on my own? -On average, how many years does it take to get my Masters and MD for Cardiology?
