dasalvager asked: Which gives me a better chance of employment.
Im not keen on job hunting or waiting for employment.
I’ll much rather be employed permanently and settle down.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Science with no Nursing background.

I intend to be a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist some where down the line, but I would not mind being a Nurse Practitioner except I hate to prescribe drugs because I wouldnt use them myself.

Does it make more sense to do the bachelor of nursing science because I have no nursing/medical background and so it would be easier?

Or will it be better to do the master of nursing since there is the option of me completing it in the same time as the Bachelor of nursing science and I will have to do it eventually if I am to specialise as a nurse.

And will it be easy for a Nurse Anesthetist to get a job?

slingshot_X asked: I already have my bachelors in science and am going to graduate school for my masters. I would like to know which Medical schools in America do not require a person to actually take the mcat, but still be considered for admission on the grounds of transcripts, work related experience, and any other extra volunteer activities?

glitter_star321 asked: I am in my first semester of college right now and I am majoring in bioengineering. However, I am planning to go to medical school and I am beginning to think that I can major in something a little easier such as biology or biochemistry. Would medical schools be impressed with a bioengineering degree, or would it be better to switch to a science degree instead? I dont want to go through all the stress if a bioengineering degree doesnt really give me an edge as a medical school applicant. Any suggestions/opinions?

booda2009 asked: For example, say I end up going to Michigan Tech, which doesn’t have a medical school. After getting my bachelor’s degree in, say, biological science, it would be possible to go to the medical school at a school like Wayne State or MSU, wouldn’t it (assuming that I could get in)? Is it anymore difficult that way? I mean, will it be significantly harder to get into medical school if the college I attend doesn’t actually have one?

smiln06 asked: I am entering my sophomore year at TAMU and I am switching my major from Biology to International studies. I am still getting all my Prerequisites for Medical school though to leave that door open and I was wondering what the statistics were for that.
I am not really aiming for any school in particular, I was just wondering about the overall statistics. I know that some schools will flat out tell you that –% of their students who applied to med school got in, but I could not find that info for A&M so I was wondering if anyone knew…

Snack It Up Healthy Style asked: If I am a college student taking heavy science classes at 15 credits per semester, how many credits do you predict I will take once I get into medical school?

Someone told me (who did not go to medical school) it is much more than 15 credits and you basically have to have no social life to keep up with it all. I hear you can take many classes pass/fail so you don’t have to perfect all of those classes though in certain medical schools.

You have always had an interest in medicine, but circumstances may not have allowed you to pursue that path as directly as you would like. Like many of us, you may have had obligations or had to make decisions that set you on a career path other than medicine. Now you would like to resume your medical studies, but aren’t sure how to approach the issue. It will be useful for you to know that there are some great medical science degree and certification programs available to you through distance learning or online.If you’ve already established yourself in a certain career, it usually does not make sense to just quit. You have spent years putting yourself in a position to earn a certain income and attain a certain status, and you may not find it logical to give all of that up to pursue your dream of some nature of medical degree. Unfortunately, it is not practical to try to maintain another career while undergoing the rigors of medical school, internship and residency. Fortunately, there are a wide variety of other degrees in the medical and health fields that you can pursue online while maintaining your current career.You can earn a Ph.D in Health Sciences. The Health Sciences Ph.D will allow you to become a health researcher or teacher, putting you on the front lines of modern advances in medical health theories and techniques. If this seems too ambitious, you can also pursue a Bachelors Degree
