OBGYN Requirements

Hi, I'm 16 / a high school sophomore thinking ahead about my future career as an obgyn. I've researched the pre requirements into a ba program for direct admission in to college, I'll also have my AA when I graduate which is one of the requirements, but my question is, if I meet all the pre requirements could I be accepted directly into this University?and also I know it's 4 years in the program, then 4 years for your M.D then 3 years of residency I state this to make sure I'm right so correct me if I'm wrong! Thank you for your time I appreciate it greatly.

Into what university? OBGYN generally refers to a physician not nurses.

  • Author

University of Florida , it offers a Bachelor degree program in health Science

You may not get the answers you wanted here- this is a website that primarily nurses (Or those interested in Nursing) use. Hence why it's called "AllNurses". Try the Student Doctor Network and you may get more information. If you are interested in becoming a Certified Nurse Midwife, you would get more answers here :)

You might want to inquire at medical/student physician forums if you want to pursue a career as a physician. This is a forum dedicated to the nursing profession

When you say ob- gyn do you mean obstetrician/gynecologist? Nurses can be midwives but go get a BSN first. If you want medical school, you may not be in the right place for the information you want.

Yes, the OP was specifically asking about schooling for medical doctors.

I know it's 4 years in the program, then 4 years for your M.D then 3 years of residency I state this to make sure I'm right so correct me if I'm wrong! Thank you for your time I appreciate it greatly.

As others have said, this is a website for nurses. Not too many of us have direct experience with pathways for physicians.

As a nurse who works with lots of OB/Gyns, I can tell you that typically, it's a 4-year undergrad degree, 4 years of medical school, 4 years of residency, and then 2 years of fellowship (optional, typically for subspecialties like urogyn or gyn-onc or perinatology).

As far as best pathway, I would recommend taking as many AP classes as you can in your last two years of high school, then directly enroll in a BS (not BA) program at a university.
