How can an MBBS graduate become a licensed therapist without pursuing a full psychology degree like a Bachelor’s or Master’s?

How do I get started in becoming a clinical psychologist?
I'm planning on getting my BA in psychology, and I've been looking at the different careers in that area. I know that to be a clinical pyschologist it would require 7-8 years of school, and I'd have to get a PsyD. From what I've been reading, it's a competitive career and so is getting into a clinical psychology program, especially at the university I want to study at. I'm wondering what the steps would be to get to clinical psychology: grades, experience, etc. Are there also any other careers similar to clinical psychology that I could go into?

What second major or minor should I pair with psychology?
I'm currently a junior in high school and a dual-enrollment student with my local community college. We did an assignment in the CC where we needed to plan out how exactly we would transfer to a four year university. When doing so, I was looking at the college I would like to go to and in their Bachelors degree in psychology, they require a second major, minor, or other "certified program." I'd like to be a clinical psychologist, and I'm not sure which second major or minor (possibly program?) would pair best with the clinical psychology part. I was considering biology, but I'm not sure if it would be better to major or minor in it along with the psychology major. I appreciate any advice or feedback, even if it doesn't fully answer my question. :)
