<p>Hi. I’m iRaphas13, I’m 14 and I’m from Brazil. I plan to go to Med School in U.S. when i grow up. I’m in the last year of elementary school (as you would say in U.S.) and I want to understand how can i make it to get to a Med School <em>in the U.S.</em>. I have read a few stuff on the internet but I want to understand <em>exactly</em> what is needed to get to Med School. Can you help me understand, what tests, what interviews, what recommendations (specially because of the fact that I’m in Brazil.) I gotta have to get into Med School.</p>
<p>Please be very clear when explaining: Explain what the abbreviations means, and what it stands for. (for example, I read on internet there’s some sort of “MCAT” but i don’t know what MCAT stands for (i know it’s a test) nor what’s it about, when you do it, why you do it, why it is important to do it.)</p>
<p>Let’s make this thread a “guide to med school”.</p>
<p>So, to make a little bit easier for you to start, start by answering the question:</p>
<p>“What I should do when i finish high school?” (remember to go though the "undergraduate school (explaining what it is), the tests, exams, and <em>everything</em>)</p>
<p>thanks
