1. If you are interested in studying medicine, then there really isn't a course specifically for you - especially since what you will learn in med school will differ from what they teach in first aid.

With that said, I would try a higher-level course. Standard Certificate or Standard First Aid & CPR-C are good places to start. It will give you a great place to start and will give you a taste for standard first-response procedures.

If you can, maybe try to upgrade any CPR courses you take. When you take your first course, your instructor will be able to tell you more about upgrading and learning more.
