Can I Major in Psychology and Still Become a Doctor?

Question by smartgirl93: Can I major in psychology and still become a doctor?
I want to become a neonatal doctor and my original plan was to major in biology. But now I am taking AP Biology and I realized I do not want to major in it anymore, but at the same time I still love biology. But now I am taking AP Psychology and I became so interested in it, that I think I want to major in it. My question is, will I still be able to take the required courses on the pre-med track, while I major in psychology? Also, what are the different types of psychiatrists?

Best answer:

Answer by R.F.
You can get your bachelor’s degree in any subject for medical school, but you still have to take the required pre-med classes. That’s 1 year each of general Biology, Physics, English, Calculus, and 2 years Chemistry. The science classes have to have lab sessions. They can’t be non-technical lecture-only classes.

Bipolar Where to Start?

Question by Justin M: Bipolar where to start?
I have not been diagnosed, nor have I been to a doctor since I was 16 for working papers. I’m currently 20, and feel that maybe I should go to a doctor or at least take a small step and talk to my mother before I see a doctor about these problems.

My problems consist of, depression, mostly towards night times when i am the loneliest which result in little to no sleep the only way I sleep is b/c of my addiction for sleeping aids, nyquil/tylenol pm/unisom/melatonin.

There are days when i’ll wake up happy fine w/e, then my mom or sister will come in start to talk to me.. I don’t know if its just because Im not a morning person or what. But I get this unbelievable rage to the point where I want to start flipping chairs. But I would never hurt my family I love them…
