If you are like many people today, you need to work while you are in school. This may be to supplement your parental support or because you are having to pay your own way. The good news is in the medical field, you can learn skills while you earn the money you need. There are numerous jobs within the medical field where you can find entry level positions that will allow you to gain experience to supplement your medical education.

The decision to apply to medical college is a big one, and for most students it is a decision that has been years in the making. Not only must you have met all the educational requirements, including the satisfactory completion of a baccalaureate degree program from an accredited university, you must also have passed the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) within five years of your application. While these requirements take time, discipline and a serious financial investment to complete, students who choose to become doctors are willing to make these sacrifices in order to practice in their chosen medical field.
