Question
I am a high school student interested in becoming an anesthesiologist, i was just wondering what special classes i should take in high school to get a head start? Also what college, because there is so many out there I want to make sure i make the right choice, so is there any you recommend? thank you for your help.  

Answer
There are no special classes in high school. Just your regular science and math courses. If you qualify and can take AP, better. There is no specific college. That depends on your qualifications, income, location, etc. All colleges are good and none are better for getting into medical school.
