Nobody ever feels like they're good enough for anything. Even the top students at my school don't feel like they're good enough. The important thing is to study.  "What you do is always more important than what you should be doing" -forgot the author's name. Don't worry. Life always works out somehow.

She will need to take both phases of the USMLE. Try http://www.amcas.org or http://www.aamc.org for more info on that exam. It's computer based and comprehensive.  After she scores well on the USMLE, she may need to do another residency.\n\nOtherwise, she may sign up for the NCLEX, the nursing exam (also computer-based). And if she can handle some more schooling, she can get her NP (nurse practitioner) certification.

The MCAT wasn't hard, it was just really long and arduous. I took it twice and scored in the 85th percentile both times (score expires fast!).\n\nThe NY Bar Exam sounds far more painful. Any test that takes several days and involves case files and multiple handwritten essays has gotta be tougher than the MCAT.\n\nBut I think the collected USMLE exams, Steps 1 through 3 PLUS CLINICAL have got to be the worst. If it wasn't hard enough to pass, it also costs thousands of dollars just to take!!!

You will need to pass the USMLE exams (US Medical Licensing Examination) before you can be authorized to practice medicine in the USA. This is a lengthy process that also includes approving the university from which you obtained your medical degree. Please check the AMA (American Medical Association) website for more information.

Buy books from the "Nutshells" and "Nutcases" ranges. Here the most important parts of the syllabus are explained in clear language. If you know these well, it is likely you will pass.

get a sample test book from your library.  It'll give you a good idea of the format of the questions.  Every state has different requirements so people here can't help you, what applies in their state might not apply to your state.

I agree with Chandni above.\n\nAlso: sometimes getting a copy of previous/sample USMLE exams might prove worthwhile.  Speak with others who have successfully taken the exam.  And, lastly, take a peek at Part 1 of the National Board Exam.  It also covers the first two years.

It's not easy, but it can be passed. \n\nI once wanted to take that exam and be a diplomat, so I asked around and looked into it.  \n\nBasically you have to be really well-versed in world geography, history and events.  World political environments.  Have really good reasons on why you want to be a diplomat.  Preferably speaks a foreign language.  In addition, you have to have high IQ and EQ (both book and people smart).  You have to speak and write really well, and a good problem solver.  It won't hurt if you are good looking (or at least presentable), either.  \n\nThere's a good reason why the exam is not easy - we don't want just everyone to represent the U.S.A. in foreign countries.  \n\nGood luck!

1) Is not something unreachable, you can do it! The most important word is perseverance. If medicine is your passion, go for it, its wonderful. \n\n2) Biology, Genetics, Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Calculus, Psychology, Economy, etc. Try to do any kind of science-research. And enjoy college, family and friends, because the hard thing about studying medicine is not the hard work you have to put into your studies  The hard thing is to learn how to overcome the frustrations and to make a balance between your every-day-life (family, friends, boyfriend or girlfriend, church, etc) and med-school.  (time-management --> very important) \n\n3)You can go to the MCAT page to see all the med-schools in your area.

Becoming a doctor in the United States is very difficult yes.  You must attend a four-year college and take pre-requisite classes.  Some medical schools don't require that you graduate but all prefer that you do.  If your GPA drops below 3.0 you won't stand a shot and to be competitive, you should carry a 3.5+.\n\nThen you have to take the entrance exam, or MCAT (medical college admissions test) to be admitted.  Last set of statistics I saw was that 60,000 people take it yearly for 17,000 spots.\n\nIf you're lucky enough to get in, you have 2 years of very intense studying, followed by the first in a line of three exams.  This test is called the USMLE (united states medical licensing exam).  This may be the hardest test ever devised by man.  the next two years are clinical rotations that will definitely test your mettle.\n\nwhen you finish the 4 years of medical school (and the other stages of the USMLE (some people call this test the Boards), you are a doctor, but still not ready to practice on your own.  now you have anywhere from 5-10 years (depending on your area of interest) of internship and residency and perhaps even more depending on specialty.\n\nall of this takes a lot of studying and some brains.  if you just want to get into medicine, then you can become a lab technician pretty easily.  most technical schools hand those diplomas out as if it were toilet paper.
