Hi, I'm a RN wanting to pursue medical school. I thought for a long time about NP school. The NP programs are too inconsistent from one to the next, some are still master's level, some are only doctorate level. It doesn't really appeal to me. Medical school is straight forward.
I have a background in cardiology, though I am currently working in med-surg to expand my knowledge about other disease processes. I like the diagnostic process and I strongly believe I would feel "at home" in the physician role.
I'm wondering if there are any RNs currently on here? The medical school I want to apply to is a state school and the minimum they require is the typical 8 hours ochem, 8 hours reg chem, 8 hours physics, etc. I have a BSN in nursing and have been told by some that pursing a full biology degree at this point would be unnecessary and that I should take the classes I need + MCAT and apply. Any insight on that?
