Mostly just Techs scrub these days. But its a cool career.
I do have some scrubbing experience, but nothing recent.

I like vaginas as much as the next guy, but GYN has never appealed to me.

i'd hate that job. digging around in infected, overused, smelly, or just plain unattractive or nasty vaginas all day sounds terrible. and even worse, what if i was dealing with hot ones but got desensitized and bored with them? not cool!

I know nothing about them, but wouldn't want to look at them all day.

X-Ray tech or Radiology techs are different than Radiologist. The first 2 don't require MD degrees. And there are different things that make people squeamish. Moving a limb probably isn't going to freak as many people out as open heart surgery.

Back to OP:
If you can't pick up algebra, forget about any job that requires an MD. I'm not trying to be a jerk but the MCATs have a physical science section which is Physics and Chemistry. Both are extremely algebra intensive, they are also both critical thinking intensive (as is the MCATs in general but this is kinda what algebra is about). Bio and orgo (bio especially) people can get by just memorizing, but if algebra type word problems are tough for you, MCAT physics will be awful. (I taught physics and bio for kaplan after the MCATs so I know too much about that stupid exam).

Of course you could get your MD in the Caribbean where the average MCAT scores are far lower than what's required in the US, but I always thought of that as cheesing the system.

Pharmacy school has their own test, PCATs (it also has a calculus section and chemistry is very math intensive).

Why pigeon hole yourself into the medical field? All the sciences are probably somewhat math intensive. You could sell things for biotech companies, those sales rep make quite a bit, it's commission though (because everything we buy is freakin expensive the commission adds up).

Proctology! Now there's one for ya! I can't imagine declaring a specialty and going, "well DANG! I want to work with butt holes all day long". Course, guess we've all had jobs where we've had to do that, eh?

boys? in healthcare?

TONS of them. Happens all of the time.

The worst reason to go into the medical field is because of the salary, when it comes to the health and welfare of people you should only join the medical field if you have it in your heart to help and care for people not for your wallet (just a bonus).

Some may start out in it for the money. But they likely wouldn't last long with a heart for it.

One of the weirdest comments I've ever seen. The health care field is huge. It also includes all types of doctors, researchers, health care admin, bio engineers. If anything, traditionally there is a disproportionate number of men in medical school.

You need to become a specialist Mike.....

Focus on Cranialrectumitis....

Let's face it...you could make a fortune if you can figure out how to get people to pull thier head out of thier @ss.

In any medical field position there is always some kind of interaction with patients, but healthcare and medical are always looking for people. I got into healthcare and I will be going to school to become a CNA.
