Please read it all:
I live in Lodi, CA.I´m 14 years old and I want to go to UC Davis. When I was 6 years old I started having atopic dermatitis in my skin, it was serious at the beginning and it is not that serious now but I still have it!!! That´s why I want to be a DERMATOLOGIST(an skin doctor). At the age of 6 too I was becoming deaf. My family had to say, “Oscar, Oscar, Oscar…OSCAR!!!´´ so yeah….. That´s why I want to be an OTORYNGOLOGIST (an ear, throat doctor). Since I´m 13 I´ve used glasses and it´s very bothersome. I want to be an OFTALMOLOGIST(an eye doctor).
So this is my dream… So my questions are: What do you think?

You’d be better off just picking one - you don’t have to do everything you’ve ever heard of. People who try to specialize in too many things often don’t end up being very good at any of them. But you can if you want to.
You’d start with a 4-year college degree. Major in anything and take the premed classes in bio, chem, physics, math, and English. You can do this at pretty much any 4-year college or university. Then you need a medical degree. That’s another 4 years at a different university.
After that, you’d do a one-year internship in surgery. An otolaryngologist (note spelling) has an additional 4 years of otolaryngology training. Then you’d need another 4 years of residency in ophthalmology (note spelling again). And then another 3 in dermatology. Your planned career will take you 8 years of college and 12 more of training - to have three specialties. At this point you can look for a job that will require one of those specialties, or open your own clinic to use them all (you’ll probably want some training in business too).
Recientemente obtuvimos un video en donde se aprecia un objeto volador no identificado (OVNI), el cual fue captado en uno de los cerros que se ubican al norte de nuestra ciudad, aproximadamente como a las 7:45 AM del pasado 31 de enero del año en curso.
