can anyone please explain the best educational route if i want to be a dermatologistWhat should be my high-educational route if i want to be a dermatologist?
Dermatology is the MOST COMPETITIVE RESIDENCY.





First you want to go to college for 4 years and get a bachelors. You want to maintain at least a 3.6 GPA and your Junior year you take the MCATS which you should aim for a 30+.





Then you apply to medical school and if you get in its 4 more years. The first 2 years are all book work and then the next 2 are clinical rotations.





YOU Basically have to be number 1 or number 2 in medical school to even get a shot at dermatology residency.





If youve made it this far, its another 4 years. You work anywhere from 80-110 hours a week. And you only make 40k a year.What should be my high-educational route if i want to be a dermatologist?
Yes -- it matters. Medical schools take many things into consideration. GPA and MCAT are only part of the story. Medical Schools also look at the quality of your undergraduate program.





Not only should you go to a four-year program rather than a community college -- but you should go to the best university that you can get into.
