Ha! to the previous poster. I LOVE grey's anatomy. I want to be just like Izzie Stevens. Beautiful and smart

As i've posted before, I'm thinking about becoming a RN then off to medical school. I feel relieved that if i dont get into med school, there is always the NP positions if need be. Are you happy with it? Or do you wish you would have just went to med school so you could be "top" dog in the hospital? I'm scared of having regrets.

Yes, I'm starting this fall. As of now, I'm undecided as far as majors go.

I really want to be in the medical field. I've thought about becoming a nurse, but I really think I would hate settling for it. My life's dream is to become a doctor. Ive been in the hospital before and they seem to get all the glory and respect from everyone around them and make all the decisions. I also really want to make good money and have a great lifestyle like they do. However, i'm scared about how long i'll have to be in school and how competitive medical school is. I'm thinking I should just go into nursing and see how I like the medical field first. I know it will be terrible pay and cleaning up poop all day. That scares me. I don't want to be some doctor's helper and be belittled all day, as well as being poor. Have any of you first went into nursing, then onto medical school?? Any suggestions? I'm really at a crossroads here.
