Sidney Said:

Medical School? What are the steps?

We Answered:

You need A LOT of help from your teachers, guidance counselor and parent support. You will need your very best GPA possible, AP math, and science.

Research the web pages at UCLA for pre-med, and then the information on applying for med school. This will be a 9 year plan, so cowboy up, and get her done!

Lisa Said:

Who has more independence in making medical decisions: physician's assistant or nurse practitioner?

We Answered:

If you want to be a NP you must become an RN first and get your masters degree in nursing. You have more automomy as a NP. Depending on the state you live you do not have to have a doctor sign behind you. A PA you only have to have a bachelors degree( doesn't matter what your degree is in) and apply to PA school. A PA can only pratice with a doctor signing behind you and checking on everything you do.

Olga Said:

What are some professional pre-nursing groups?

We Answered:

HOSA- Health Occupations Students of America. The annual conferences are amazing and you can join as a high school or college student. This organization is very highly respected and has opened up many doors for me.

Liberal arts to Nurse Practitioner?

We Answered:

Are you sure that nursing is something you're interested in? Try volunteering at a local hospital or care center. It will give you a good idea as to whether this is something you're interested in and if you decide that it is, it will help you get accepted into a nursing program.

There are scholarships for just about anything, you just have to find them. I know that in NY there is such a shortage of nurses that many hospitals will pay for you to go through nursing school in exchange for a contracted job with the hospital (usually 3 to 5 years).
