Question
Hello Ian, my name is Iman Budwan and I am 14 year old that is in 9th grade. I am VERY interested in becoming an anesthesiologist when I am old enough to.. ofcouse. I would like to know if you know what the best college is to go to in North Carolina that specializes in becoming an anesthesiology? Thank you for your time!

Answer
Hi Iman
I am glad that you have a good idea of what you want to do in the future. I have to confess I didn't! However I always enjoyed sciences at school and physics in particular - that seems to have done me no harm.
However as to your question I have to confess that as I have spent all my time in Medicine in the UK I have no idea of the best college to apply to in North Carolina.
However I do wish you all the best for the future.
Apologies
Dr Ian Jackson
