@Ms2313Princess no many don't do science majors. many med schools like people that don't. more diverse people i guess

Do u have to get a major in biology or chemistry or any other science course to be accepted in medical school?

Could you take 4 years of psychology and then 4 years of medicine to become a psychiastrist?

@Raizo1988 Yes I am. I don't think you need to be "above average" in Math to gecome a successful psychiatrist. Perhaps math knowledge would help you for the MCAT, but it's definitely NOT required at all... I would say, focus a lot on Anatomy, biochemistry, and physiology during college...it will pay off at Med School.

@JorgeInternacional Your a Psychiatrist? What is the likelyhood of a person with average math skills successfully making it to medical school and onward to becoming a Psychiatrist?

@JurisArcane Can you not count? 4 year degree + 8 years of medical school (4 years pre-med, 4 years of actual medical school) + 1 year of Medical Doctor internship + 4-5 years psychiatry residency + 2 - 3 years for psychiatry fellowship (Which fellowship is totally optional) so in the end you will be looking at 17 - 18 years or 19 - 20 or so years IF you include the fellowship.

You need a Ph.D in candies.

@wttbsh08 are you stupid? His comment says 4 year degree + 4 years med school + 2 to 4 years of specialization/residency...4+4+2 = 10, 4+4+4 = 12...I'm pretty sure his math is fine. Many places in North America do not require fellowship. HIS MATH was right, I'm not saying residency is as low as 2 years, but his math was correct you retard.

@xOEHLALA It is totally worth it, at least for me. It depends on where you will be working as a psychiatrist. If you're gonna work in an academic setting (teaching hospital) the pay will be way less than if in a private hospital or private practice. I got a big student loan but I can tell you every month, after paying all my debts/mortgage/car, etc I still keep about 50% of my paycheck. It does pay well, don't be discouraged and check average salaries in your state and don't accept just any pay |
