Answers:
Are you talking about a medical doctor or another type of doctor. If you are asking about a medical doctor, my sister is in her third year of residency as a pediatrician and I can tell you what I have observed. Medical school is TOUGH. It should be though, it is very difficult to get in also, so keep your grades up or you won't get in. After medical school, comes your residency. You will have to do 3 years of working as a Dr. but making less than half what a real Dr. makes. My sister sometimes works 80 hours in a week!! So all that is to say you really need to make sure you want to do this. You will spend 7 years of stressful hard training ( 4yrs school + 3 yrs residency ), but after that you do get to reap the benefits. For a pediatrician for example, starting salary is around $120,000. So it's a great lifestyle but you have to go through alot to get it so make sure it's what you really want to do or you will burn out.Health Question & Answer
