Nursing.
I heard that is a super competitive residency. You need over 9000 on the step 1. Good luck.
Nursing.
Not to take away from the joke here but I know many happy nurses--and if you are nice to them they may save your ass a few times during rotations.
One of my best friends is a nurse and she tells me all the time how she feels bad for the 3rd/4th year med student that doesn't know the answer and she has to answer it. Remember healthcare is a team sport.

*looks at your username* I see what you did there....
I'm always surprised at how nobody ever wants to go into OB. Office hours + procedures = reasonable schedule and decent pay. My little secret, I guess.
At this point I'd like to do IM/EM or FM/EM. For the area that I want to practice in I believe that both will be beneficial and if burnout ever does become a factor I will have another specialty to fall into full-time.
So this may be a dumb question, but you can do both? I can't decide between peds, FM, and EM. So I could do FM & EM? or Peds & EM?
Yeah, there are combined dual-residency programs in both allopathic and osteopathic. I don't know of a Peds/EM (I'm sure there might be one) but I do know that the University of Kentucky has an IM/Peds combined program that is well regarded.
IM/EM is definitely more numerous though.
herbal medicine...
But for realss.....neurosurgury, if that doesn't work I'll prob go the general surgery route and do reconstructive or cardio
You picked interesting variety of fields in surgery that have nothing in common, other than perceived monetary rewards (not necessarily realistic)
I'm thinking I'll specialize in cardiac-arrhythmia-dance:

I made it to 1 minute and 34 seconds. Let's see who can beat that.
You didn't even get to the good part. It gets really funny at around 2:20.
That or I've been studying for my Cardio block WAY too long.
