RN TO MD: A NARRATIVE GUIDE FOR NURSES TRANSITIONING TO MEDICINE
Are you a non-traditional student with clinical healthcare experience interested in pursuing medical school? This guide is made for you! (CNA, RN, MA, RT (rads and resp), nursing student, NP, PharmD, PT, etc. etc.)
By leveraging my nursing career, I crafted a STRONG medical school application that not only shouldered my low MCAT score but also earned me a TUITION scholarship.
When I applied to medical school as a full-time registered nurse, most pre-med resources were geared toward recent college graduates.
With over 10,000 hours of clinical experience, I needed to approach the application process differently, which is why I wrote this guide.
As a narrative guide, this book outlines the path I took, helping you create your own informed roadmap.
What you will find in this book:
• Prerequisite requirements and how to approach it while working full time
• Full transparency on all the grades and exam scores I submitted in my medical school application
• A detailed timeline of my journey to medicine
• Exact wording from my medical school application covering my top three activities
• A breakdown of my personal statement
• Insights into my financial situation regarding medical school loans and strategies for paying for medical school
• Tips on preparing for medical school interviews with a nursing background
• Success stories from other RNs who became MDs like me!
• And more!!
