if you paid more than $5 for it at the garage sale, well….

Such as tennis and golf? Every country gets saturation media coverage of its own national team sports competitions plus coverage of country v country comps eg cricket tests, tri nations RU. while individual sports have a few world highlights eg Wimbledon & Opens in tennis & golf but little else.

I don’t really get what you’re asking, but I’ll try my best here.

Yeah, every country obviously focuses on the sport that is apart of their national identity. I guess the individual sports are more world renowned, and not unique to the individual country, hence recieving less media attention?

I want to do Sports Medicine (or be a personal trainer as my fallback) so i’m wondering If i should take Kinesiology in University before med school, and what other courses should I take in University?
(I’m in currently in grade 10, and live in Canada by the way).

That is a very popular major for pre-med students.

To go to medical school in Canada or the USA, you first need a bachelors degree. It can be in any major but you need 8 to 10 specific sciences courses. In most schools Pre-med is not a major but the set of specific sciences courses you take for medical school. The courses vary depending on the medical school you choose. If you are a high school, the courses you take are not important as long as you can actually get into university or college. But you should take most of the AP sciences courses offered.

These courses generally take 2-3 years to complete.

Your choice of undergrad school is not that important as long as it is regionally accredited and they have the science courses you need. It is suggested that you may be better off at a less competitive undergrad school as you will likely get a better GPA. Going to an extremely competitive undergrad school generally makes little difference for getting into medical school and can hurt you if it causes you to get a lower GPA.

You should make sure the major you select is not a personal enrichment major but one that actually leads to a career in case you do not get into medical school. Biomedical engineering is one such useful major.

It is NOT recommended to double major if you want to go to medical school as this will not improve your chances but does have the very real possibility of dragging your GPA down enough that you will not get into medical school. Also going to community college for 2 years and transferring is not a good idea. Many medical schools will not count the sciences you took at community college and with scheduling issues it is not likely you will get all of them you need in 2 years of university. It is possible but it is very hard. More likely you will end up doing an extra year at university which will blow the money you saved by going to community college first.

A typical mix of required courses would include one year each of:

English
General chemistry with labs
Organic chemistry with labs
Biology with labs
Biochemistry
Physics with labs
Statistics
Calculus

and others that would be specific to the medical school you apply to.

If you are going the community college route and then transfer to a university as a junior, it is unlikely you can do the required courses in 2 years at the university. You will likely need three years which will wipe out your cost savings going the community college route. And if you went the community college route because of low high school GPA, it is doubling challenging as your chances are remote that you can improve your study habits enough get the very high university GPA needed for medical school..

As for what major to select, you may want to select a major that actually leads to a career just in case you do not get into medical school.

If you get a score on the MCAT exam of 32 you have a 3 in 4 chance of acceptance when accompanied by an undergrad GPA of 3.8 or higher. Go look at an MCAT study guide at a book store to get an idea of what you will need to learn.

Besides that, while an undergrad, you may want to become an Emergency Medical Technician. It will give you valuable experience in medical emergencies. And you will discover before it is to late if you have the stomach for the blood and you will learn how well you can handle life or death situations. Having pried bloody people out of car wrecks and saving most of them is something med schools like to see. And you may earn some money doing it.

My daughter got her EMT-B ticket while a senior in college by going to a community college three evenings a week for a semester. She tells me there is no rush like driving with lights and sirens. As well, some universities offer EMT training as an undergraduate course.

As a PhD student and EMT at a major university she that it appeared that 90% of the EMTs working for her school are pre-med as they believe it gave them an advantage, and after seeing a class of them graduate, it really did make a difference.

Regardless, to go to medical school requires a passion for medicine. If you are not passionate about medicine and the least bit doubtful whether it is the best choice for you, there is a very real possibility that you will not make it. That is, if you have to ask whether medical school is right for you, it likely is not.

Here is an example of what a top medical school costs excluding housing and board:

As for specialties, you take those after you get your MD.

I went to college in 2006, and played college soccer that year, how ever I droped out that same year before without finishing my freshman year. If I were to go back to college would I be able to play a college sport again?

Yes, you can still play. There isn’t an age limit.

There are plenty of sports where men compete against other men and women compete against other women, but what sports have men and women competing against each other?

Most equestrian events have men and women competing against each other. Women can ride horses just as well as men.

Yeah. Are there any teams in the sports you watch that are sponsored by Gambling Organisations?
Also. Why is gambling focusing on sports instead of casinos or other forms of gambling?

Pro sport leagues generally ban any official contact between teams or players and gambling organizations or the act of gambling on sports. The bans are intended to avoid any hint that a player or team would adjust the outcome of a game in order to benefit people or organizations that are betting on the games.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sporting_scandals

Gambling organizations will take bets on ANYTHING that people are willing to bet on. People are passionate about sports and want to bet on them. Since the odds are not fixed so that the random luck of most casino games cannot give the house a fixed percentage of your bet, many people like to gamble on things that they can use knowledge to improve their odds of winning.
In a casino, knowledgeable playing can give you a slight advantage over the house (who still wins money from the less knowledgeable players) in Craps and Blackjack. However, the main skill that you can use in Blackjack is "card counting" and they will politely tell you to leave and not return if you are caught doing it completely in your head. If you use ANY device to count cards, you may be spending time in a jail or prison.

can individual states decide to allow sports gambling?

Of course. I’ve bet on sports in Vegas and A.C. By the way, I suck at betting. If you see me betting on a game, bet the opposite. I was in AC once and the Preakness was being run. I bet on a horse on a lark. My damn horse fell down before the first turn and he was an 8-1 shot.

For example, cross country and golf are fall season sports, soccer and basketball are winter, track is spring. Idk about summer

What are different sports that you play in the seasons? I already do soccer and cross country, but I need spring and summer sports I can do

Track and baseball/softball are probably the only spring sports. There are no summer sports, unless you want to count football

I want to play college softball, however, I am set to graduate with one degree at the end of this semester. However, I was planning on going back for another degree next fall. I won’t be pursuing a graduate degree, it’ll be another bachelors. Am I eligible to play?

It depends on how many years of college softball you have already played. If this upcoming season is your 4th year of playing college softball, then you will have used up all of your college eligibility, and therefore will be ineligible to play college softball during the following academic year, when you plan on getting another bachelor’s degree.

However, if this upcoming season is only your 3rd year of playing college softball, then you will have one more year of eligibility to play college softball the following season, while you pursue another bachelor’s degree.

Every time sportscenter shows a baseball game highlights, a rock theme plays in the background.

I will say Rise Against-Satelite.
