Can anyone help me with a job that is similar to being a doctor, but not quite as extensive (not a nurse)? |
I'm not interested in struggling to make ends meet with expenses until I'm thirty, and I doubt a med school would take me in the first place (my GPA is a 3.02). I also don't want to be a nurse. I also love the idea of analyzing different functions/disorders of the brain/nervous system (but I'm also not interested in being a psychologist...) I was thinking about a physician assistant or a medical researcher, maybe. Can these two careers be explained further, and/or other suggestions made? My strengths are in: biology, earth/space science, English (especially writing and critical reading), all of the arts, history, and sometimes chemistry... And my weaknesses include math. Bet you didn't see that one coming. :) given what you say about yourself, I don't think you would find medical jobs that attractive. The demands on time and intellect, even in supporting or ancillary professions is great, and if you do not make the commitment, you not only will be unhappy, but will not be successful. You can earn as much or more money in a number of trades- plumbing, electrician, air conditioning/heating, and you will be able to have a life. The ultimate job is to be an aircraft engine mechanic. You can work anywhere in the world, be paid really well, and have a responsible and rewarding carreer. A nurse practitioner (NP) is a registered nurse (RN) who has completed advanced education (a minimum of a master's degree) and training in the diagnosis and management of common medical conditions, including chronic illnesses. Nurse practitioners provide a broad range of health care services. They provide some of the same care provided by physicians and maintain close working relationships with physicians. An NP can serve as a patient's regular health care provider. Source: http://www.womenshealthchannel.com/nurse... They make about $70,000 - $80,000 per year. At the Department of Labor, they have computer based questionnaires that help you identify job titles and lists the education plus duties involved for each. That might be a good resource for you to discover a career direction. Most colleges I think also have computer programs designed to help you identify same. Good Luck! |
