<p>Medical schools do not care about your major. They are only interested in your completing the “pre-med” requirements with excellent grades. </p>
<p>A gerontologist or geriatrician are traditional doctors – I’m not sure why you’d assume otherwise. You will need to complete medical school in order to enter ALL medical specialties. Practicing is not the hard part, getting into medical schools is the hard part. Here is a list of schools that accept international applicants: [US</a> Medical Schools for International Students: List of US Medical Schools that accept International Students](<a href=“http://internationalpremed.blogspot.co.uk/2010/02/list-of-medical-schools-that-accept.html]US”>US Medical Schools for International Students: List of US Medical Schools that accept International Students) . You’ll realize that very medical schools accept foreign students. Out of hundreds of applications, they accept 1-5 foreign students. ABSOLUTELY NO “need-blind” financial aid is available. It is MUCH, MUCH better to study medicine in your own home country. </p>
<p>You can state a tentative major at the time of the application, but your final decision is normally made at the end of sophomore year.</p>
