Becoming a physician is not an easy feat.
To become a doctor, you need to get good grades in college, and then do well on your MCAT (Medical College Admission Test).
You also have to get accepted into one of the medical schools that you apply to.
Then you have to go through four years of medical school, which is another very hard test—the USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination).
Then you have to pass another very difficult test—the residency exam.
Finally, after all that studying and test-taking, you have to find a residency program that will accept you!
It's definitely not an easy path!
