medical school
I am a high schooler and right now my goal is to become a classical musician. However, I want to become a doctor. With my low gpa and lack of knowledge is it possible to become a doctor?

Beccming a Doctor will take lots of schooling, lots of study and ability to get good grades. If it were even possible to become a doctor but you struggle to grasp everything taught to you, would you go to such a person for care, surgery or more? I certainly wouldn't. If you are simply thinking of what you could do to earn good money, there is a big job gap between white collar jobs such as you mention and blue collar jobs that can be learned at trade schools. Working with your hands can earn you great money. Mike Rowe of Dirty Jobs fames learned from the employers he did shows on, that they have trouble finding anyone to hire as most students are directed to going for white collar jobs. This takes lots less money, and if you learn by being shown how things are done, that is already part of it.
You also mention becoming a classical musician. You'd have to be exceptionally good to get into an orchestra for a job. You might think about doing something more small scale on as a side job, getting together a group of musicians, maybe 5 or 6 and advertiser playing live music for a fee doing weddings, other special events. And work a blue collar job for the real income to cover all your bills. If interested, look up you tube videos on Mike Rowe and the job gap and listen to what he has to say, it's really informative and I wish my kids had seen that when they were the age of starting college.
