Answers:
You first need to take the required classes for medical school at an undergraduate school!. These classes are biology, general chemistry, physics, organic chemistry, math, and some others!. Then apply to medical school!. Med school takes 4 years and once you're done, you apply for a residency in the specialty that you wish to pursue!. That can take 3-7 years depending on the specialty!. Doctors are usually gynecologist/obstetricians, (OB/GYN)!. You rarely find someone that's a sole obstetrician!. The median yearly pay is $231,000!. You have to work a lot as an OB/GYN and you have to be ready in case one of your patients goes into labor and you're at home!. It takes a very understanding family to know that sometimes you'll have to drop everything at home and head to the hospital at a moment's notice!.

As for experiences, you need to get some medical experience in order to apply to medical school!. The experience can be as simple as volunteering at a hospital!.

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
