Second degree

Hi so I'm about to graduate college with a 2.8 GPA, and a degree in international relations. My dream is to help people medically overseas. With my GPA would it be best to get an associates degree or is there an accelerated program that I could get into. I took a college level anatomy in high school and did quite well, but besides that I have no college level science background.

Also any other ideas of how I could get into the medical field? right now the most I'm willing to go to school is four years.

Finally, I'm willing to look at schools pretty much anywhere I can afford, but my budget is limited, so I'll need either loans, or scholarships, or the ability to work a full time job while in school.

    Who said it was superior? I just saw one poster say there were more opportunities available, which is more about career outlook than relative quality...

    *** Actually my point was that I thought there where more oppertunities available for PAs in wilderness medicin than for RNs. I made no comments at all about APRNs. In no way do I think PAs provide superior care to APRNs but that wasn't part of the discussion.
