This is for people in the field of medicine... Im fourteen and I have always wanted to be a doctor when I get older. What should I be doing to help prepare myself? I mean, I know I should work hard in school, but I want to be a pediatrician and so is there any good books I can study?

Hi,
Yes you are right, you should work really hard in school because good grades will count for a lot when you want to apply for college.
I wouldn't get to in depth in the medical studies just yet, you are going to need a lot of basic knowlege first, that's why even Dr's take pre-med.
However, you can focus on chemistry, biology and the science aspect for now, so read books on those subjects.
Don't worry about doing any specific reading on pediatrics, but perhaps you can candy stripe at a hospital in the peds area? ]
Well first, if your going into high school or in high school, take classes that have to do with things with doctors, i know my high school does, and i'm pretty sure yours will too. Just take the right classes, and you can learn a lot about the basics, and ask your teacher all the questions.
You can also search online for books. ]
This would actually be a good question to maybe as a doctor about. You could also ask a librarian at your local library and see if he/she may know any good books on how to become a doctor. You can also do a google search for best becoming doctor books. This is the best I can do for you. ]
