Im currently a hih school student trying to plan out my life. I have always just wanted to be a mother. When my children are young I want to stay home with them, and i dont want to put them in daycare. However i know this is unrealistic financially. I thought I could do nursing, because I could take off when they were young and work in a school when they were school aged. As they grew older I could go back to working in a hospitol or idealy a pediatrican's office. This sounded great but my aunt and many other nurses I know told me that if hey could do it over again they would go straight for med school. Being a doctor seems cool, and minus the children thats what I want to do. And the money would be awesome. I was just thinking about how I could do it and be home more with the children.
Would it be possible for me to go to nursing school, but take the pre med track so id have all the right qualifications for med schools and be somewhat prepared for the MCATs, but then stay in nursing and get employed as a nurse, but then to maybe 5 or so years later take the MCATs and try to go back to medical school and become a doctor from there??
