<p>I did not say that I want to be a derm simply for the money. I come from a very successful family therefore I refuse and have no desire to be your average RN working down the road. I want to do derm because it is the medical field that most interests me, mainly cosmetic. I decided to be a doctor because many people in my family are doctors and after dealing with my mother having cancer, along with several other family members, I know that it is right for me.</p>
<p>I have many, many ECs as it is and am working towards getting more in the medical field, as most of mine now are community service. I have extremely successful family members who graduated from the med school that I am planning to go to.</p>
<p>A few more quick questions:
What would the difference be in schooling between derm and a family doctor?
Does have family alumni boost chances of acceptance?
Any recommendations on other fields that also do injectables? (Although I am aware it will be hard to completely decide what I want to do until later on in med school)</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
