Cardiologist
Online research:
Duties and responsibilities: Cardiologists are physicians who have received additional training to
prevent, diagnose and treat conditions of the cardiovascular system, which
includes the heart and the body's blood vessels.
Salary: a cardiologist makes about
$335,500
a year.
Education: cardiologist must have a bachelor's degree in order to get into medical
school. The most logical pre-med bachelor degrees include courses in chemistry,
mathematics, engineering or psychology. Then one must gain a passing score on
the MCAT (Medical College Admission Test). The four years in medical school
covers standard medical terminology, medical judgment and clinical standard
procedures. Potential cardiologists who complete the ten years of educational
preparation must then pass an exam administered by the American Board of
Internal Medicine.
Reflection: I would not like to be a cardiologist because they need to
go to school a lot. For like another 10 years after they graduate high school. That’s
a lot for me.
