I'm not a doctor(yet that is) but I have researched a lot and have found that in high school it is best if you take all basic sciences(Biology,chemistry,and physics) along with algebra,geometry, and pre-calculus if you can while taking English and a foreign language and obviously being involved in extra-curricular activities. In college you can take a pre-med curriculum and even have a specific advisor to help you get into medical school and he will also help you to choose the best classes in college. the basic classes are obviously 1-2 courses in biology 1-2 courses in chemistry and physics (sub-catogories in these generals are also required such as genetics and anatomy).You will also need calculus and English. after 4 years of college you will take the MCAT which will be one thing that medical colleges look at when deciding who to take in.Other things that they base it on are: extra curricullar activities, community service, any jobs done that helps people( as in being a doctor you have to do this anyways), and obviously grades. Then you will complete 3 years residency
