Has anyone gone from being a Registered Nurse to a Doctor? does it take much longer after nursing school?


I'm currently working on my BSN, and I want to know if it's possible to use that to become a Pediatric Doctor after that? and does anyone know where i could find the requirements for med school that would apply to this idea? Thanks!

Hey there! Good for you for thinking about becoming a pedatrician! yes, you just have to apply for med school and go from there. However, might I suggest that you become a PA. That's an extra 2 or three years of school and you'll just have to apply to a graduate program! Good luck in whatever you decide :)
