I'm starting college soon in either Dental Hygiene or Paramedics (Haven't decided which one). Both, are two year courses where you earn an Associates Degree.
I live in Canada, and there are articulation agreements between the college and other universities to further your education.
If successful upon graduation, I would be eligible for direct third year entry into the Bachelor of Health Sciences at certain universities.
Once there, I could earn the pre-reqs I need for Medical school.
If I took this route, I would have some clinical experience, But I do not know which is better DH or Paramedics (For Med School).
I also plan on volunteering with the Red Cross and getting some experience in hospitals over the course of my studies.
Also.. While on summer break I could also work as a DH or a Paramedic seeing as how I would have earned my degree.
Any opinions/advide would be very helpful.
