Is there an easier way of becoming a dermatologist?

i do not undertand why i have to go to like 10 year of schooling after my highchool schooling to become a dermatologit





i mean, i'm not going to do open heart surgery or nothing like that?








anyrubbish, is there an eaier way to become a dermatologist...Is there an easier way of becoming a dermatologist?
it seems to me that u dont have any idea how much it takes to become a dermatologist or a physician. Not being rude here but just upfront. And dermatology is one of the toughest specialties to match into let alone getting into medschools.





If u really have a passion for it, i dont think 10 years would stand in your way. If u are into it for the money, its not worth it. Try investment banking. Peace.Is there an easier way of becoming a dermatologist?
Well, to be a dermatologist you have to go to medical school. Which means 4 years of pre med at college, taking the MCAT, 2 years med school and then 2 years as an intern.





However, you might possibly be able to become a physcian's assistant which is a two years program and you could probably work in a dermatologists office and do 80% of what the doctor does. PA programs are only 2 years and are easier, but you'll get paid less.





Or you could go into nursing.
No. If you want to become a doctor, then you have to do the schooling and training required for that. It IS a big investment of time, effort and money - if you don't have the dedication, you'll never make it.
A dermatologist prescribes medicine, so they have to go through the entire medical program. In fact, dermatology is a special program that must be completed after med school.
