Aman’s Answer

Surgeons typically start out by enrolling in a university or college with a strong pre-medical program and by choosing a major related to medicine, such as biology, physics, or chemistry. After earning a bachelor's degree, they must pass the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) in order to apply to medical school.

Hope this answers your question(:
