Once you get degree in science, you can go on to dental school and major in pre-dental. Also, being a dentist is not that easy, you always have to work hard and while you are going to dental school, you should just focus on studying because you have to memorize many things that are related to human body.

<span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 9pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> __Most Valuable Skill__: The most valuable skill is being very cautious when dealing with patients. Especially when you are doing a surgery on a tooth or multiple teeth, you have to very be careful that you don’t touch any of the other healthy teeth. Also, if you are good at craftsmanship, you might want to consider being a dentist, because it deals with small things, such as teeth

It will get harder and harder to get into dental school because there aren’t that many dental schools in Korea but there are an enormous amount of people who want to become a dentist. So, if you want to become a dentist, you should keep your GPA up and do a lot of internships in the dental field. <span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> **__OTOLARYNGOLOGY__** <span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> <span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> **Shadae Ivey,March 9,2010 Otolaryngology** <span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> **JOB DESCRIPTION:**Otolaryngologists focuse on the ears and treat hearing disorders, infections, balance disorders, nerve pain, ear noise (tinnitus), and cranial nerve disorders. <span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> **EDUCATION:** Ear, nose, and throat specialists must complete at least five years of training in a surgical residency school.

<span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> On March 9, 2010, I interviewed Dr. Narasimhulu. He is a pediatrician for NYU Medical Center. <span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> He graduated from NY Medical College, in Westchester, NY. Dr. Narasimhulu recommended if a student is sure they want to do pediatrics, they should go to a college with a Pre-Med program where they will be studying for about eight years. He said the most valuable skill is saving the lives of babies. He believes that pediatrics is a growing field, but it is one that people need a passion for. Dr. Narasimhulu claims the best part of his job is "spending time with the kids, playing with them, and saving a life or two." The worst part of the job would be the long hours. After talking with Dr. Narasimhulu, I came to the conclusion that this is a man that has a true passion for his job. To contact Dr. Narasimhulu call 212-263-7300 and ask to be connected to this doctor.

<span style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white; color: black; display: block; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 3.6pt;"> On March 11th, 2010 I interviewed my aunt, Dr. Ko, by the phone. She is a home medicine physician for her own office. She recommended me to take a pre-Med program which gives certification to enter into other hospitals. She said the most valuable skill of her job was: the ability to prevent her own sickness, and helping somebody who is in pain. The worst part of her job was the period of the time she needed to study in order to become a doctor ( this took her 9 years). She looks happy with what she is doing, she takes pride in herself, and she is the most helpful member of my family.
