      I’m a Dr… as I have two doctorates; one a DSc… Doctor of Science! However, I guess you mean a medical doctor. To do that you need to very very good at your school studies getting very high grades in your science subjects and maths. Then you need to go to university to study medicine for at least 4 or 5 years before getting your medical degree. Even then you have to do more training to become the type of doctor that you might want to be.

      If you mean medical doctor, then you have to get top grades, go to medschool and suffer through the excessive memorisation medschool brings with it. Thousands of pages.

      To become a doctor (either by a getting a PhD or by studing medicine) you will need lots of patience, dedication, effort and probably a very comfortable chair, to sit and study, study and study a bit more
