Do you have to make really good grades to become a doctor?

Becoming a doctor or a surgeon is an honorable goal, yes if you think you did bad then a community college will be majorly helpful. It'll give u a chance to really prove yourself. make sure to try verrryyy hard though. once u finish your 2 years try to have like above 3.5 GPA. Having good grades is very important especially if your going to become a doctor. Yes so that way you can get the feel of Bio, Chem, Physics, and Calculus at a cheaper price Contrary to most advice, my advice is to NOT consider a community college unless you really have no choice. Try as much as possible to get into a 4-year college, a state college if your grades are not satisfactory. You can then strive to achieve and maintain a good GPA (3.5 and above is highly desirable for a state college pre-med student) during your 4 years in college. Choose a 4-year state college which has a pre-med committee. You'll need the committee's recommendation when you apply for medical schools and you need to complete the pre-med curriculum.
