i'm not sure if this is the right forum, but i was wondering if anyone knew how hard it is (school wise) to go from being a nurse (bsn) to being a doctor? thanx for the info
This is unconfirmed but I heard medical schools don't like taking RN's because they feel it contributes to the nursing shortage. But then I also heard the rate of nurses going to medical school is so low that it doesn't affect the shortage.Snobdrblinkchik said:i'm not sure if this is the right forum, but i was wondering if anyone knew how hard it is (school wise) to go from being a nurse (bsn) to being a doctor? thanx for the info

in community college taking gen ed classes...i want to be a doctor, so i could go to third world countries and help out..problem is that i don't have much time on my hands..i have a family business to help run, so for the time being..i wanted to become a nurse..and make some money..and then in the future..when our business takes off and i have more free time and money..i'll go to med school..
I was also wondering if getting a bsn is going "too far"..like should i just go for an AA..then when i have time go for pre-med.. and FIY..i live in soCal
