What is a good pre-med major if you want to be an Anesthesiologist?

[Edit]

Answer

Choosing the correct undergraduate degree for the purpose of applying to Medical School is not as clear cut as many individuals think.  Actually, some medical schools love English majors, because they are able to think critically, assimilate information, digest it, and then articulate it in either written, oral or practical form.  Still, you must have a good foundation in science.  Most colleges have programs of study that lead in this direction, and they are usually within the biology curriculum's.  Some of the courses you should have a good foundation in are as follows:

  • Biology of the Organism
  • Cell Biology
  • Human Anatomy and Physiology I
  • Human Anatomy and Physiology II
  • Micro Biology
  • General Chemistry I
  • General chemistry II
  • Inorganic Chemistry
  • Organic and Bio Chemistry
  • Some Physics
  • Math - no less that a pre calculus

You should speak with an enrollment specialist at the undergraduate college you may be thinking about.  Also, you can get some very good information from Md's themselves.  Start with your family doctor who may then lead you to other doctors within the field you are interested in.  Usually people are very open to discuss their ups and downs as they pursued their education.
