Pediatrics
OK I know It is really early to be worried about this but here goes. I am currently 15/f (freshman) and my goal career-wise is to be a pediatrician like in a hospital. I have been searching everywhere to figure out what i need and what classes and everything but i am not good at college searching so I need some help -- you know what they say, start early! So anyways. I am hoping to got to University VA for undergrad and for med school as well. Is there like a chart or something of what scores I need to be in the range of for SAT's, ACT's, etc. as well as what courses I need to take in high school and college? I really feel like I should be getting started on all this stuff. am I like paranoid or something?! Thanks alot! Also if it helps I want to minor in college Spanish.

It's very good to want to be prepared. I think it's important to start right away even at the start of 9th grade.
If you want to be a pediatrician, try to take honors and AP level science courses like Biology Honors, Chemistry Honors, Physics Honors, AP Biology, AP Chemistry, Human Anatomy & Physiology.. and for math you probably need to reach the calculus level.
SAT scores you should aim for is above a 2000. Your GPA is important as well and if you score in the range 2100-2300 you will be fine. Talk to your counselor to see charts/scattergrams/tables on different colleges/universities and their requirements. Your school should be signed up with Naviance. It is a very helpful site specific to your school.
