The first step to becoming a doctor is to earn your undergraduate degree, typically in the sciences or health professions such as medicine, nursing, pharmacy, or dentistry. After that, you will need to apply to medical school and complete an admissions process which may include standardized tests, essays, and interviews. Once accepted into a medical school, you'll have four years of medical training before you can become licensed to practice medicine. During this time, you'll learn about anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, microbiology, pathology, immunology, and other topics related to medicine.
