QUESTION: what qualifications do i need? These are done in a secondary school. e.g. science, english

Answer
Ok JP,
Most chiropractic programs require 90 hours of specific undergraduate credits leading to a baccalaureate degree, similar to most medical, dental and other health professional schools.  Many states require a bachelors degree or greater in addition to your clinical doctorate in order to qualify for the licensing exam.  These credits must include the basic sciences and humanities including biology, physics, chemistry, organic chemistry, and psychology as well as english and other liberal arts credits.  You would need to check with a specific accredited chiropractic college admissions office to find out the exact required curriculum.  This link should help:
