Open Chart interviews practicing healthcare professionals so middle and high schoolers can explore medicine beyond "doctor or nurse."
From clinical pharmacist to perfusionist — explore 15+ profiles written in plain language for students of any age.
Real conversations with people who actually do this work — the honest stuff they don't put in job descriptions.
Open Chart was built by pre-med high schoolers who had the same questions you do. We go straight to the source — interviewing real professionals across fields most students have never heard of — and write it up so anyone can understand it.

Real conversations with people who actually do this work.
Why we built this, and who's behind it.
We were pre-med high schoolers who kept running into the same problem: every resource about healthcare careers was either too surface-level, too technical, or written for adults who already knew what they were doing. Nobody was writing for students who were still figuring it out.
So we built Open Chart — a free resource where students can read honest, plain-language profiles of real medical careers, backed by interviews with the people who actually do them.
Open Chart is completely free and designed to be shared. If you're an educator, school counselor, or organization working with students interested in healthcare — we'd love to collaborate.
