You need to go from general to specific with this. Have wonderful "Basic Skill Levels" in every subject. It would be best if you looked at school as a gym for your brain. It is important to have every aspect of your brain working...not just what at the moment you like. Not every exercise at a gym is fun. As you observe what you are better at than you can visualize what type of work you are better at. Try things you know nothing about and see if it kicks up an interest.

Embarking on your journey to become a doctor is incredibly exciting, and as a freshman in college, you have a world of opportunities ahead of you! To really make the most of this incredible career path, it's important to explore and learn as much as you can about what being a physician entails.
Why not reach out to doctors for informational interviews and gain some clinical experience? This will allow you to discover your passions and see if the medical field truly resonates with your aspirations. Remember, your academic advisor is there to help guide you, so be sure to discuss the pre-med track and focus on Biology, Chemistry, Math, Psychology, and Physics.
The path to becoming a doctor may seem daunting, but it unfolds in achievable steps. So believe in your capabilities and take your journey one step at a time: excel in your pre-med classes, engage in meaningful extracurricular activities, ace the MCAT, apply to multiple medical schools, and impress med school interviewers. With perseverance, you'll soon find yourself enrolled in the right medical school for you, working towards graduating and starting your residency.
As you achieve board certification within your chosen medical specialty or subspecialty, you'll look back on your accomplishments with pride. So don't be overwhelmed - keep your eyes on the prize, and know that with commitment, determination, and passion, you can make your dream a reality. Your future is in your hands, and we believe in your potential to become an amazing doctor!
