Question
Hi I'm in college now and I'm taking up biology I want to become a Anesthesiologist and I hope to get into a very good Med School. My top 3 picks for med school is University of Chicago, Michigan State, and New York University. I wanted to know in order for me to get into either one of those really good schools what type of extracurricular activities do I have to do?? What would you recommend me to do? When should I start studying for my MCAT?
Hi Belita
I'm afraid you have failed at the first hurdle by choosing me - I am UK based and trained and so have no idea of the Americal system. Please contact my american colleague - or even look at his past answers at http://en.allexperts.com/q/Anesthesiology-962/
Kind regards
Dr Ian Jackson
