Iam currently a nursing student with a 4.0 GPA. I graduate with my Rn in May. I want to go to med school and I want to know if I should persue my nursing degree or to get a second bachelor in something else. What do i need to do?

what did you get in your first bachelors and you'll also have to explain why you switched from nursing

My first bachelors will be a bachelors of science in nursing.....I work at Mortan Plant hospital and while being in nusing school and working I realized that i really want to go to med school in order to have more autonomy, there is so much more i can do for patients as a doctor that nurses just cant do.

Your BSN should be fine, just take the pre-req courses if you haven't and take the MCAT.

Med schools don't care what your major is, as long as you have a good GPA and do well on the MCAT after taking the prerequisites. Another bachelors degree isn't necessary.
