I am currently a college senior waiting to hear back from a few nursing programs. However, I really want to drop nursing and go MD ( I lack three classes for med school). I had originally chose to get my bachelors of nursing because 1) it's just easier and I didn't want to really go an additional 7+ years, 2) I want to eventually have a family and being a mother and a physician can be tricky. However, the more I read about medicine, the more I want to go to medical school. I would absolutely love to be an OBGYN, but I know that their schedules are crazy. A few doctors I have talked to suggested family practice as it has better scheduling and I can deliver babies, work with women, etc. I will be shadowing a few doctors this next week to get a feel of things.
My gpa is pretty solid and I'm confident that I can handle med school. My only concern is that I'll be a 3rd year and realize it's not what I really wanted. With this said, I want to get advise and make the best educated decision that is right for me. Anyone regret med school and if so why? Would you recommend the MD route to family and friends? Suggestions, thoughts?? Thanks.
