Question
Hi, I am Kawal from California. I had a question. To be a anesthesiologist what exact classes should you take in high school and college. Do you think the course is very hard?

Answer
Anesthesiology has nothing to do with high school or college. You need 4 yrs high school, 4 yrs college, 4 yrs medical school and then 4 yrs anesthesiology residency. What courses you take in high school and college are relatively unimportant.
