You don't need to go to a Medical school to obtain a career in Psychology. You can go to schools that offer the courses and the degrees for it.

Hey there,
im interested in going into the same field too when I leave school,but seeing as I don't live in the states its a completely different system over here but as far as I know whether or not you have to take a medical class or go to med school is depending completely on the type of psycology you would like to do,
there are many types for instance clinical psycology: (definition)
Clinical psychologists apply psychology, the scientific study of behaviour, to help people with a wide range of mental and physical health problems. They assist people experiencing mental or emotional disorientation and help them regain their mental well-being.
if this is the kind your interested in then id say yes you would need some aspect of medicine.
but there are many different types,i would say look around for different websites that will excplain more to you or if you had a career guidence counsellor at school go back to talk to him/her or visit the university and ask for yourself research around about it =]
hope I helped some how
much <3
