I have a somewhat unique situation here.I'm an LPN currently getting ready to graduate in June with an associates in science and nursing. Long story short, I've always wanted to be a doctor but never had the courage to follow that dream, so I went into nursing. Granted, I love being a nurse, but its not what I originally wanted.
Working in the field I get to see a glimpse of what doctors do on a daily basis and it re-ignited my desire again a few years back. I've thought about being an NP but again, that's not what I want. My question to you wonder advice givers here at SDN is what should I do with regards to obtaining my Bachelors? Should I continue to purse a BSN and just take the pre med requirements as electives, or should I completely change my major? Just a little background info on me, I'm 23, not to great at math and I work full time due to living on my own. I know it seems like an uphill battle, but, I'm ready to do what it takes. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
