What is the best college path to become a Pediatric Cardiologist?

@vacohp On your other thread you say that you have a 3.3 GPA (I do understand that it might have changed since that was probably before your last set of grades came out for last year).

I think there is a sort of good news and bad news situation here. Your grades and scores should be good enough to get you into a pretty good in-state public university. Also, most state public universities have very strong premed programs. Also, when you are applying to medical school you high school grades won’t matter at all, you will get accepted or not get accepted to medical school based on your university grades, MCAT scores (a test you will take near the end of your undergraduate studies), and to a limited extent other stuff such as recommendations and medical-related ECs that you do during your undergraduate studies.

The bad news is that university will be a LOT more difficult than high school, and a GPA of 3.3 in university is probably not going to be enough to get you into medical school. As such you are going to need to improve your effort and study skills very significantly if you want to have a chance of being accepted to medical school. I would suggest that you start now – since presumably your last year of high school is about to start. See if you can pull off a 4.0 for your last year of high school. This will help since some things you learn will be useful next year in university, but mostly because it will get you more used to the mindset that gets people accepted into medical school.
