But, when you go to become a plastic or heart surgeon no one will care what you took in HS. But to better prepare yourself for a pre-med program in college you might want to take some AP science classes and science classes with lab components. A lot of terminology has latin roots. So if your school offers Latin as a foreign language you might want to think about taking that.
Then, all the science and advanced science courses you can take.
Go to Harvard’s website and look for entrance requirements.
I’m not much of a school brain, but my guess would be that you need to take as many advanced classes as you can, especially in math and science. If you can, try and “dual-enroll”, taking classes at a nearby community college. Talking to a counselor will help tremendously, too.
The more lab science and higher level math, the better, for a pre-med major.
