Question
I’m currently doing a course at college which includes studying: fundamentals of science, scientific practical techniques, criminal psychology, genetics & genetic engineering, biomedical, maths & stats and physiology of the human body systems.
I was wondering if I could become some sort of doctor like a physician.
Any help and information would greatly appriciated! Thanks!

Answer
Of Course Josh,
Medical, Chiropractic, Osteopathic and Dental Colleges all require these basic sciences, and if you do well in these areas you may consider one of these health professions.  I would suggest you go by the college guidance counselor's office, and request more information on health careers.  They will help you identify the course work you will be required to have for admission to a professional school.  Try this and links to other similar occupations:
