I know I didn't make it clear but I was referring to my own journey. It may have been a poor choice of words but as s a C.N.A I can say that and it is what it is. But anywho thanks for the advice and hopefully everything works in my favor. =)

Thank you! =)

I took the wrong chemistry my first semester and they wouldn't accept it b/c it was a lower level but now that I look back I guess it was a good thing. =)

No. I'm going to apply to others. FSU is just my first pick. I have everything except for a semester of physics, biochem & genetics.

She was clear and I also spoke with a med school advisor from FSU earlier today. I went over my previous classes and he informed me of the ones that I needed for that particular program.

I see what you're saying but, I also see it differently. Yes I agree medicine & nursing are different. But it's not impossible nor unheard of to start from the bottom and work your way up. It doesn't matter if you have a Bach. in music as long as you have that degree and have the pre-reqs for med school then you are eligible.

lol oh be quiet guyman123!

Because If I were to take the bio route then that would be an extra year of schooling for me to get my bachelors degree vs. finishing the nursing program in two years and taking an extra semester of classes afterwards. So not only is Bio 3 extra semesters but I can't use my nursing scholarship for another major. I agree, Nursing and medicine are two totally different professions but what if I don't get accepted into med school? At least with the BSN degree I will be able to work as a RN and become a CRNA. IDK it seemed like a good idea... Maybe I'm missing something? =(

Yes CRNA is definitely going to be my back up profession. Once I get my BSN I will only need an extra semester to get all my pre-reqs for med school. If I don't get in (which I'm praying that I do) then I will just use that year to gain icu experience. Either way I've made up my mind that I will be happy with either decision =)

Just spoke with my counselor. And I'm changing my major. Thanks for the input!

Okay so I'm a future RN (currently waiting on my nursing school interview) and I wanted to pursue a career as a CRNA. But lately I've been asking myself why stop there? I've been doing a lot of research and currently establishing a position to shadow an anesthesiologist. However, I haven't found any good information regarding a new nurse trying to get into med school. I mean is it unheard of? Would it be a waste of time getting this BSN degree? Will the med school interview committee see the BSN as more of a disadvantage?

Hey Ladies! I hope all is well. I've been reading some of your posts and a few of you all have been thinking about the Cottages at Magnolia. I had a classmate that lived there and she complained of the shootings and loud noise. Not to shoot anyone down or anything of that sort! But, I thought you guys should know that.
