Hello, I am a sophomore in high school, and I am thinking about joining the medical route(plastic surgery is my interest.) I was wondering what I should be doing now to prepare for the future. Also if anyone knows salary between private and non private practice surgeons is I would appreciate it.
I’m a sophomore too. I am currently in a medical trade class through duel enrollment in my local college and will have a certification to work in a hospital. Look for a similar program that will give you experience.
Our school district has a separate Career Academy that all the schools send students to take classes. From those classes you can get a CNA and/or EMR certification. Talk to your councilor and see if you can do dual enrollment and take college classes while in high school to obtain the certifications.
