I am new to the forums I was told by a classmate of mines to check out the site and I absolutely love it ! I am a junior in college and also a pre-nursing but I have a concern. My original plan was to become an RN then in due time go to school to become a CRNA. I talked to my physician today and he was telling me about the possibility of me going to medical school for anesthesiology instead of being a CRNA mainly because I will have more benefits in the long run as a Anesthesiologist than a CRNA (he gave me some good insight).
My question is if I decided to go to medical school what route can I take ? I understand that I will still have to take all the pre-med classes to be eligible for medical school only thing is I am suppose to be starting the actual nursing program at my college in fall 2015. So as far as me switching my major now it would be pointless considering how far I have gotten with my classes. One of my colleagues told me about possibly double majoring in either biology or chemistry, because she is going to medical school for anesthesiology as well. I just need help trying to figure out a path I can take if I want to go to medical school to become an anesthesiologist instead of a nurse anesthetist ,although I am enroute to gain my BSN by 2017.
