<p>I think you’re misunderstanding how medical specialties work and how medical school in general works.</p>
<p>You need to complete an undergraduate degree first in order to be considered for admission to med school. After med school, if you want to become an orthopedic surgeon, you will complete an additional 5+ years of specialized training in orthopedics (called a residency). Most orthopedists then spend another 2 years getting even more specialized training (called a fellowship).</p>
<p>To become an orthopedic surgeon requires a minimum of 9-11 years of medical training (med school 4 + residency 5 + optional fellowship 2) after the completion of 4 year undergrad degree.</p>
<p>Gaining a orthopedic surgery residency is very competitive and depends not on at all on which medical school or undergrad you attend, but your performance in med school. To be a good candidate for orthopedics, you will need to be in top 10% of your medical school class, earn honors during your clinical rotations during your 3rd year of med school, have very strong letters of recommendation from your surgery and orthopedic preceptors, plus your USMLE scores (series of national standardized exams all med student take) need to be very high–typically in the top 10% nationally.</p>
<p>So first steps first—get accepted into college and do well in your med school pre-reqs courses.</p>
