    It is not easy to become a doctor in the United States. The first step is getting into medical schools. More than 120 American schools offer study programs for people wanting to be doctors. 

    Advice about medical schools can be got from books and magazines like The Princeton Review, which provide information about medical schools, study programs and jobs. Competition(竞争)to enter medical schools is  strong. American medical schools have only about 16,000 openings for students each year. However, more than two times this many want to enter medical schools. 

    An important part of their application(申请) is the Medical College Admission Test(MCAT). The Association of American Medical Colleges provides the test by computer. It is offered in the United States and in other countries. Applicants need to do well on MCAT. They also need a good record in their college studies. 

    An interview (面试) is also required for entrance to medical schools. The interviewer wants to know if the applicant understands the demands of lift as a medical student and doctor in training. He also wants to know about the applicant’s goals for a life in medicine. 

    A medical education can cost a lot, from 15,000 dollars to 40,000 dollar a year or more. Most students need to borrow money to pay for the education.
