       Educational Requirements:

  

 A candidate must hold a high school diploma and complete a period of on-the-job training, competition in the field has made it very difficult for anyone without formal training in the medical field to work as an assistant. In almost all cases, allergy technician positions require that a person hold a 1-year certificate or 2-year associate's degree in medical technology or a related field.

 I would not like to be an allergist because it requires a lot of educational requirements as well as skills. I would also not like to become one because I do not see myself as a doctor when I am older.
