Hey world,
I was wondering what a BSN program to med school would be like. The big question is what prerequisites would I have left after I complete my bachelors in nursing (BSN). Here is my plan:
• Take a year of basic courses in community college.
• Transfer about 30 credit hours over to Chamberlain University of Nursing.
• Do well in my BSN (3 years)
• Begin the rest of pre med...
but here's the problem. I don't know where to go after I finish my program. Do I go back to my local community college and finish the rest of the prerequisites or should I go through a certain program that is accredited and offers the rest of the prerequisites I need? Any insight and experience would be greatly appreciated.
Ps: I don't understand why Nurse to MD is very frowned upon. If anything it should be somewhat of an advantage when applying as nurses are very well rounded and are prepared for med school after such rigorous studying at such a short time. All of this considering a great GPA and MCAT I still don't know why people hate the fact of some nurses wanting to become doctors.
EDIT: I will also have a great résumé along with my GPA and MCAT by then. I would have experience in the ICU and as a CNA which is healthcare related. I am also thinking of doing research related to medicine to put on my résumé.
