• Answer:

  Me too, i will also be entering the 11th grade. But i want to a Psychiatrist. And i live in the US ( i don't know if its different or not) Well the most important years of high school is Junior and Senior year. This year were basically going to take electives,internships and visit colleges. A good thing to do is to do a lot of service hours or an internship in a medical career. Also take extra health courses if you can. Try to take as much extra classes as you can. Also this year try to get ALL A's in your report cards. Stay away from C's and D's.
