How to Get Medical Jobs : How to Become a Dermatologist

[MrRaddi97]

soooo your telling me i CANT get into medical school with a 2.5 GPA????...

[bobkillow]

There are alot of people out there who want this job for the money. I warn you, there are many doctors out there today who care nothing of their patients, only their wallets. But remember. KARMAS A BITCH.

[murderousbastard83]

@bobkillow That's 98% of Dermatologists!

[AlextheTitan]

@murderousbastard83 Jealous much?

[murderousbastard83]

@AlextheTitan The world would be just fine without them, but you wouldn't realize that being prepubescent like you are.

[AlextheTitan]

@murderousbastard83 Sure, we could just let people die due to skin cancer. Is that what you want? You disgust me.

[murderousbastard83]

@AlextheTitan That was my original point. They rarely ever save anybody from it in time. That's why they are useless.

[bobkillow]

@murderousbastard83 There are many useless proffesions in the world, but it doesn't matter. People get paid for not doing anything everyday, it's not just a dermatologist.

[murderousbastard83]

@bobkillow That's quite true. Meteorologist come to mind as well.

[murderousbastard83]

A dermatologist is a useless piece of diahrrea who isn't required to do their fucking job and still are able to keep it.

[AlextheTitan]

@murderousbastard83 You're an idiot.

[murderousbastard83]

@AlextheTitan You must be a dermatologist. Which makes you a far bigger idiot.

[AlextheTitan]

@murderousbastard83 I'm 16 you idiot. I highly doubt that you are capable of becoming a Dermatologist.

[murderousbastard83]

@AlextheTitan Well trust me, the bar isn't very high for them.

[AlextheTitan]

@murderousbastard83 It's the most competitive residency that there is....

[murderousbastard83]

@AlextheTitan Competitive but not compedent. They get paid for solving nothing or not curing any diseases. So many people die of malinoma and they barely ever cure anything. Not to mention they misdiagnose more often than any other profeesion. Yet they still get paid an undeserved high salary.

[AlextheTitan]

@murderousbastard83 They get paid what they deserve considering that they need 13 years of education, for 8 of which they must be at the top of their class. You seem to have some sort of personal vendetta against them. Jealousy perhaps.

[murderousbastard83]

@AlextheTitan Tell me another profession that gets away with not consistently doing their job and still getting paid for it? Dumbfuck. Maybe one of your relatives is a dermatologist, which in that case makes them incompident too.

[AlextheTitan]

@murderousbastard83 I don't recall ever having knowingly met a Dermatologist. You're clearly a jealous idiot who would never be capable of becoming a Dermatologist.

[missinglink96]

sigh...i guess i'll never have much of a life after high school. oh well. this career interests me, regardless of the shit ton of work

[LilAngelNana]

@ShinkuWObankai right? I really hate it when people think "ohh I'm going to be a doctor and make MAD money" Sorry dude,but most people also dont realize that 1. it takes a wholllle lot of effort and time. and 2. medical school is expensive and most doctors spend their time paying off loans and what not.

[LilAngelNana]

@breedome .....your telling me you didnt know the hell they go through to get there?! LOL

[Sweetcaramel591]

Crap, im only in my second year of college , 19 yrs old and im thinking of going for a dermatology degree.... that means imma be done by the time im like 32?.....Fuck! lmao but ehh, im willing to do the work. its gonna pay off at the end ;)

[breedome]

@Sweetcaramel591 youd be retired when your like in your 40s. lucky basterd lol

[LilAngelNana]

@Sweetcaramel591 hehe, I knew I wanted to get into this field since my 2nd year in highschool. I am super prepared! >=O

[owlover23]

@LilAngelNana I have wanted to get in this field since age 7

[LilAngelNana]

@owlover23 and are you? (in the field I mean) your age states that your 30. If not it's fine you know, most people change their minds once they get to medical school. (often they find that another field suits them better.)

[istarfreak]

Wow that just...killed all my dreams.

[LilAngelNana]

@istarfreak If you really wanted to become a doctor in the first place it would only push you to work harder =_=

[istarfreak]

@LilAngelNana Yeah I got over it, I do still want to be a dermatologist and I will be haha I was just a little intimidated for a while. It'll be worth it, I know it will be. I can't imagine doing anything else.

[Michael326]

To all of the bright-eyed high school students who wish to pursue a career as a physician, let alone a specialized dermatologist, know that you must be WILLING TO WORK extremely hard for many years during undergrad, medical school, and residency. Matching into dermatology isn't a cakewalk. Most of my friends who actually managed to match this year had outstanding EC's, were part of the AOA (alpha omega alpha medical honor society), and were within the top 5-10% of my class. Good luck all.

[TheComment01]

Is this only for America? Are there different Requirements for one to become a Dermatologist in Australia?

[vananhdo]

@juicyglitter28 I'm thinking of dermatologist but I'm not sure if I can handle the workload.

[sexylittleangel777]

I'm willing to do the work :)

i want to be a dermatologist. I love taking care of my skin and i would like to help others! :)

Plus it helps if you are attractive :P

[angelprincess12345]

T.T that means by the time i finish schooling and training, i'll be an old woman.

[vananhdo]

@angelprincess12345 of course you can get married and have kids and other things while you're at it. My uncle got married 2 years b4 he got to be a real doc.

[angelprincess12345]

@vananhdo really? wow i can't believe that i actually listened to my mom, haaha

[HinataHyuuga13]

I really want to be cosmetic dermatologist...or aesthetic dermatologist...however, the length of schooling is SO lONG!...AND the MCAT scares me already! :(

[vananhdo]

@HinataHyuuga13 I know. the prep book costs like 100 bucks. I'm talking about the princeton one.

[HardikG121]

how long does residency take? Do you need to take a fellowship?

[starlessartemis]

this is very thorough! great!

[indubitablyyours]

So basically it's like test...test...test...more school...test...another test...and some more school.

lame

[Drazhenko]

A dermatologist makes at least $200,000 a year

Not lame AT ALL

[breedome]

@Drazhenko As long as there is teenagers then they have business

[vananhdo]

@indubitablyyours I assume your salary is higher than 200,000? Oh wait, do you even have a JOB?

[speechless00]

kewl

[cacktapus]

THANKS!
