Many of the courses required for Nursing Schools and Medical Schools are the same, as many of you are aware. What made you choose the Nursing route over the MD? They are both challenging and require lots of commitment, but MD gets more prestige. So why Nursing? Enlighten me!

Doctors may get "Prestige" but nurses are ABSOLUTELY the backbone of the medical community. I want to become a nurse because I want to be with patients, to help them and their families either heal or help them deal with whatever medically they have to. Nurses are the TRUE silent heroes, if you ask me. And you did, so. (insert smile)
