Just finished first semester, main reason I havent been on here in awhile, that shit was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I got straight A's in all my pre reqs. but 2 b's and 2 a's in nursing. It doesn't help that my school counts a's as 92% and above. Fucking up my chance at scholarships.
Any way for me the reason I did nursing instead of med school is time and a nasty divorce. In a year and a half I will be a RN and already have some jobs lined up in the 30-35 an hour range, and I know nurses can make a lot more than that in the big city markets. If I would try for med school I would need a year and half to finish my bachelors in biology, than do excellent on my MCAT, than 4 years of med school and up to 7 years of residency! I would be in my early 40's before I was even done!
