I chose this occupation because I think I would like to
work with kids, I like the salary and I like the thought
that Im helping them in a way. I consider the three
most important characteristics of this career ________.
I learned that you have to go to school for a little
more than 8 years and that was disappointing, but
its exciting that when you get out of school you can
go straight into being a pediatrician.
