I went to radiation therapy school(similar structure to nursing school associate degree), got my license shortly after graduating.
I didn’t consider going to med school or even the thought of it until half way through my program where I had to shadow a bunch of rad oncs and nurses as an academic requirement.
I’m going to go back to my community college because I really do like research in biology so I’m going to try transfer to get a bachelors in that to then apply for med school. If I’m going to get a bachelors it might as well be in something I like and that counts towards my credits which is why I’m not doing it in health management or radiation therapy(which is only three new classes at bachelors level).
I don’t know if I count as non trad or not. I just know people my age have already started applying for this cycle.
As for clinical hours is it bad that I don’t wanna work as an MA or scribe? I get a lot of direct patient care as a radiation therapist and I want to pick up CT technologist jobs on the weekend.
